The agents arrested John |
Thompson, 35. His companion es- $
caped the officers on foot. ‘
The agents said the still had a
daily capacity of 96 gallons and it
was brand new. The operators had
just begun to operate it when the
agents made the raid.
Later that same day, which was
Tuesday, the three agents found a
100-gallon metal still one mile
north of Loganville. They found
200 gallons of beer here, but no
one was at the still gite. The equip
ment was destroyed.
Sheriff Louis Howard of Walton
county accompanied the agents on
both these raids.
Late Tuesday night the agents
made another raid, this timre in
Morgan county, but the still op
erators beat them to the punch.
They had destroyed most of their
equipment before the agents ar
rived.

Redwine Hints

Funds Missing
ATLANTA, March 16.—(AP)—
Revenue Commissioner Charles
Redwine disclosed today he has
“reasons to believe” there is a
shortage in the cashier’s office of
the state motor wvehicle license
unit.
The commissioner said he has
fired Douglas Jordan of Decatur,
cashier of the unit since the be
ginning of the Talmadge adminis=
tration in November, 1948,
Redwine requested State Audi
tor B. E. Thrasher to investigate
the cashier’'s office “at the very
earliest possible moment and ad
vise mre of your findings.”
Thrasher - said he would begin
the audit immediately.
TAKES DIM VIZW OF HUMOR
BALTIMORE.— (AP) —Three
drunks, said Dr, G. Wilson Shaf
fer, dean of the Johns Hopkins
University, staggered into police
court and faced the magistrate.
“What’s your name?” the judge
asked the first. “John Smith,”
answered the second. “I wasn’t
falking to you,” said the judge.
“Who said you were?” barked the
third.
The Baltimore Engineers Club
roared with laughter, Dr, Shaffer
remained straight-faced until the
guffaws subsided. “What is so
funny about that?” he demanded.
No one seemed to know. So Dr.
Shaffer told them.
“You were laughing at three
crosseyed men. You were laugh
ing at their physical deformity.”
He then explained that the con
clusion about humor is that we
nearly always laugh because we
feel superior to the man in the
joke or the comedians on the stage
or screen,

Department’s own loyalty board,
but that a U. S. Civil Service loy
alty board fired his case back and
recommended that the same de
partment board be barred from
judging the case again. /
Shortly after McCarthy testi
fied, the department said it had
not received any such information
or request from the review board.
In announcing yesterday that
Service is being brought home,
the Department said the action was
taken on recommendation of the
Civil Service Review Board. . Bul
it said the board’s request was not
received until 3:50 p. m. EST,
Tuesday—about five hours after
McCarthy testified.
The Review Board, in recom
mending recall of Service from
India, said the State Department’s
own previous investigation of the
veteran diplomatic officer should
have included his personal ap
pearance before the panel.
Lincoln White, Department press
officer, said the Review Board’s
recommendation does not mean
Service is “under a new suspicion.”
He added that apparently the
board feels Service should have an ¢
opportunity to speak for himself.
