“Not Enough Room
In U. S.. For Reds And
Legion: We'll Stay”
By RANDALL COUCH
" “We must regenerate the spirit
e¢f Americanism, and we cannot be
apathetic if we intend to retain for
ourselves and ours those high and
noble ideals so dear to all true
'‘Americans,” said George Craig,
National Commander of American
fegion, appearing here in- the
Georgian Hotel last night before
a capacity audience of officers and
members of the Legion units from
the sth, 9th and 10th Georgia dis
tricts.
The National Legion Command
er, a young lawyer and first vet
eran of World War II to head the
f'National organization, is a native
of Brazil, Indiana, and a graduate
rof the University of Indiana. He
itwas introduced by Erle Cocke, jr.,
¢who was a leading candidate for
“the National Commandership last
year.
Lamenting the presence in high
. governmental positions of workers
~who do not uphold our way of life
and who, while retaining their
positions, essentially support for
eign and undemocratic doctrines,
M. Craig said, “There is no room
in the U. S. far the Communist
party and the . merican Legion—
and the Legion isa’t going to move
out.” *
The Commander pointed out that
since the Yalta Conference 187
persons have been dismissed from
the State Department. “Others,”
he said, “will be convicted—but
why were they ever permitted to
infiltrate intc high positions in the
first place?”
At the 1947 American Legion
Convention, said Commander
Craig, a plan was formulated pro
posing the establishment of a
school for the express purpose of
training the youth of America to
take their places in the State and
Foreign departments of the gov
ernment. The school, as proposed,
would be an institution for the
fraining of State Department of

Campus Laundry
Is Court Victor
ATLANTA, March 15 —(AP)—
The Georgia Supreme Court ruled
vesterday it is all right for the
University of Georgia Athletic As
sociation to operate a non-profit
laundry and dry cleaning plant.
In a wunanimous opinion the
iribunal upheld a lower court’s ac
tion in dismissing a petition by
R. C. Westbrook and other Athens
Jaundry men.
The petition sought to keep the
Athletic Association from provid
ing University of Georfia §tudents
with laundry and drycleaning ser
vices. The Athens laundry men
contended it was unfair competi

The court ruled, however, that
the association is not a private,

ATHENS BANNER-HERALD
Associated Press Service
To mop up on cases involy’
income amassed in the big & o
profit year of 1943, it asked grand®
juries over the country to rush in
dictments today lest the law’s
time-lapse limits bar further ac
tion. An indictment, or some other
form of action such as the filing
of a bill of complaint, has to be
in the record by midnight to get
within the time limit as to 1943

As for informers, they will have
a chance to ring up a record haul
this year for the third year in a
TOW.
There are more than 40,000,000
persons subject to the federal in
come tax. How many will try to
cut corners is just a guess.
Last year was a big year for in
formers—and the government,
The government paid out $449,-
984 to 97 informers, in rewards
ranking from $25.86 to 46,072, foir
aid that led to the recovery of
$8,187,914 in taxes that otherwise
would have escaped dgtection.
That completely overshadowed
the previous record tallied in 1948,
when informer rewards totaled
$99,975 and led to recoveries to
taling $2,351,000.
The main reasons for tax in=-
forming—patriotic desire to pre
vent evasions, disgruntlement of
employes with their bosses, family
feuds and jealousies, and women
scorned—endure in peace as well
as in war. w
The biggest reward to date,
SBO,OOO that was split among three
people, came in a case where the
government recovered $2,600,000
back in the depressed mid-19305.
Bureau records show, incident
ally, that hard times bring in more
tips—either because desire for ex
tra cash promotes informing or be
cause tension makes people less
tolerant of others’ misdeeds.

Deny Danger Of Arrest In Romania
Bishop Gerald P. O’Hara, papal nuncio to Romania, and his sec~
retary, Monsignor Jack Kirk, of Athens, are at present in no dan
ger of being arrested, according to reports received here late this
morning.
In a message from Bishop O’Hara in Bucharest to his brother in
Philadelphia, he said both he and Monsignor Kirk are “OK” and
rep ts of their impending arrest are “all nonsense.”
‘alking to the two, the Bishop’s brother called Monsignor

¢; /WO years on this stay.
% According to the Associated Press:
o “Vatican sources have said, however, that the church’s position
in Romania is an extremely difficult one and that Bishop O’'Hara’s
post is one of ‘toleration” since Romania’s Communist government
renounced the nation’s concordat with the Vatican, July 1.
“The informant said that all the Romanian bishops have been
interned or jailed, aepriving the 1,500,000 Roman Catholics and
an equal numpe: sf affiliated uniates of their hierarchy.
“In his statement, the bishop was commenting on a report by an
American broadcasting company correspondent in Rome that said
the Catholic prelate would be arrested soon by Communist Roma
nia on spy charges.
“Bishop O’Hara, who heads the Diocese of Atlanta-Savannah,
Georgia, in the United States, sounded cheerful.”

ATLANTA, March 15—(AP)—
Georgia’s county unit election sys=
tem, unique protector of rural pol=-
itical power, was upheld as legal
in a"two to one special Fed
‘eral Court decision,
~ Attorneys quickly announced an
appeal to the U, S. Supreme Court.
They said they would press for a
final decision before the State
Democratic primary, set for June
28.
- The high court has been very
closely divided in similar cases in
the past involving equal political
rights.
Judges Samuel Sibley and T
Hoyt Davis agreed that the unit
system discriminates against big
city voters in Georgia but declar
ed that federal eourts cannot in=-
tervene.
Judge Neil Andrews, in a strong
dissent, declared “it is difficult to
imagine a more obvious denial of
the equal protection of the laws
than that imposed by the county
unit system or one with less foun
dation in experience, practicality
or necessity.”
Overthrow of the wunit system
would revolutionize Georgia poli
tics and government. It would be
a severe blow upon the entrenched
forces of Governor Herman Tal
madge.
State law assigns from two to
six election units to counties, in
theory like the National Electoral
College. But in practice it gives
rural counties up to 122 times
more power per vote than city
counties. : 3
The Talmadge dynasty — and
almost all successful politicians in
Georgia — have pitched their ap
peal for generations to the state’s
host of small counties.
Fulton County
The majority opinion said the
“proposition that a vote in Fulton
county has only one-tenth the
force that-it would have but for
the county unit rule, which unjust
and undemocratic, has strong ap
peal but it is not a matter for this
court to decide.
“Our question is primarily
whether the federal constitution is
violated thereby. In general, that
contitution is not committed to
elections by the people over the
whole effective territory in which
every vote shall have equal
weight.”
The opinion noted that the Pres
ident of the United States “is not
elected by the equal votes of the
people but by electors in each
state ‘appointed in such manner as
the legislatures thereof may di
rect’.”
Electorial Votes
Two electorial votes represent

Youth Drowns
InMud Hole
A verdict of “accidental drown
ing” was handed down by a coro
ner’s jury this morning in the
death of Melvin Johnson, 10-year
old Athens negro.
The youth — son of Eva Mae
Johnson of 680 Dearing street —
drowned while swimming in a mud
hole adjoining a branch on the
site of the new Athens High School
off Milledge avenue, late yester
day. Water had banked up to a
depth of slightly over four feet be
cause of dirt moving work and re
ce%t rains, Coroner S. C. Cartledge
said.
It was brought out in the inquest
that the colored youth came up
three or four times before drown
ing. Two boys had gone in swim

said in the inquest.
Firemen dragged the body out
with hooks and the youth was pro=
nounced dead upon arrival at a

WASHINGTON, March 15 —

enough to find it.
On the Island of Trinidad in the

Story Of Beatings, No Food
HOLLYWOOD, March 15.—(AP)—Runaway Lera Lfl?’
Michel, 9-year-old SIOO a day actress, has reversed her
stories of being starved to keep thin for movie roles; says’
Juvenile Judge A. A. Scott. ‘.
“She is a precocious, emotional child who could get & loé
of people into trouble,” Judge Scott said last night after &
long interview with the child.
He said she told him she had
never been beaten or starved by
her foster parents, Mr, and Mrs.
Otto Mickel, and that they had
been wonderful to her.
Monday night the youngster left
the Michael’'s apartment and, elad
only in pojamas, took a cab to the
home of Rev. Alfred Sundstrum in
nearby Burbank.
He said she told him “I had to
get away, I couldn’t stand it any
longer.”
The girl had stayed with the
minister during last month’s cus
tody battle. The Michels were
awarded care of the child over the
objections of her natural mother,
Mrs. Lena Brunson of Nederland,
Tex., who had relinquished her
several years ago.
The case first came to public at
tention when Lora Lee complained
to authorities that she was beaten
because she gained a pound. Mrs.
Brunson was notified and the cus
tody hearing followed.
Judge Scott said the girl told
him that scratches on her legs were
inflicted accidentally during the
filming of a movie and not from
mistreatment. Although she earl
ier had claimed she had lost 10
pounds, he said, the scales showed
she had gained four pounds since
her last visit to juvenile hall a
month ago. \
