ATHENS BANNER-HERALD
State Patrol officers of the Toc~
coa station said early today that
the accident, involving only the
1949 model sedan in which the
two persons were riding, is still
under investigation.
The accident, State Patrol offi
cers said, occurred about six miles
south of Royston on U. S. High
way 29, between Royston and Dan
ielsville. The time was fixed at
about 5:45 yesterday afternoon.
According to investigating offi
cers Sgt. H. C. Langston and Cpl.
W. W. Bennett, Miss Pruitt was
apparently driving when the acci
dent occurred, and the car went
out of control when it hit a shoul
der of the road, and then careened
approximately 460 feet off the
shoulder before crashing into a
bridge.
A witness, whose name was not
immediately available to inwvesti
gating officers this morning, said
that he approached the car shortly
after the crash and said that he
saw Miss Pruitt moving about and
apparently still alive. The body of
the other occupant remained still
however, the witness said, and he
believed him to be dead.
The witness said that he thought
it best to wait until an ambulance
arrived and did not try to free the

Firemen Walkout Cripples
Nation's Railroad Network
WEST HAILS FRENCH PEACE BLUEPRINT
"
Federal Mediafors Abandon -
Hope For Quick Setflement -
CHICAGO, May 10.—(AP)—A strike of railroad fire
men crippled the nation’s rail network today and within a
few hours mediators abandoned hope of a quick settle
ment.
Francis A, O’Neill, chairman of the National (Railway)
Mediation Board, said ‘“we've given up.”
He added that a report on the deadlock will be submit
ted to Washington.
The board had tried in continu
ous sessions since 9 p. m., CDT,
last night to reach some agree
ment, 3
Asked what the next step would
be, O’Neill replied “I can’t say
until we make our report to Wash
ington.” He added:
“We have been unable to get
anywhere. For the last three or
four days we have been working
on a ‘package’ deal with the Bro
therhood.” He declined to say
what the “package” contained.
The Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen and Enginemen, one of
the five big operating unions,
struck against four key systems in
the nation’s rail network at 6 a,
m. local Standard Time today.
Their walkout was to enforce
demands for hiring a second fire
man on multiple diesel unit loco-~
motives. The railroads, whose
contention had been upheld by
Presidential fact finding board,
maintained this constituted “made
work” and that as the second fire
man would be wunneeded on a
diesel which has no fire to tend.
The Brotherhood insisted the
man should be added as a safety
‘measure. Union leaders said their
tinually f-v leaving the locomo
tive cab to tend engines in an
other unit of the locomotive. They
claimed this meant the carriers
expected one fireman to be in two
places at once.
Before O’Neill mentioned the
“package” deal, Roos Allie, secre
tary of the Michigan Association
of Railroads, said he was inform
ed all demands of ihe Brother
hood had been settled except one
for assignment of a fireman to
switchers of less than 90,000
pounds,
O’Neill said no further sessions
were scheduled and added: “If
either side wants to resume talks
they can notify me.”
Other Lines
The New York Central, one of
the struck lines, uses a fireman
on such engines now. The Penn
sylvania does not. Other lines
whose operations are crippled by
the walkout are the Southern
Railway, serving the South, and
the Santa Fe, a principal carrier

Success Chance Slim
As Vote Nears On
’SO Main Money Bill
WASHINGTON, May 10—(AP)
A House Republican economy
drive to cut a billion dollars off
government spending met its ma
jor test today.
Chances of success looked slim:
After weeks of debate, the House
wound up adding about half a
billion to this year’s main money
bill, raising it’s total to nearly
$29,500,000,000.
Final vote on the measure, which
is to finance more than 40 agen
cies for the year starting July 1,
is due this afternoon, , ,
Senate Republicans were disa
greed on when to start trying to
choke off %ebate over a Civil
Rights bill that Southerners hope
to talk to death.
Taft of Ohio, chairman of the
Senate Republican Policy Com
mittee, said he’d support Democra
tic Majority L.eader Lucas of Ili
nois in making a start Monday.
Wherry of Nebraska, GOP floor
leader, said Monday was too early.

tices Commission with power to
forbid job discrimination because
of race, religion or national origin.
. Technically, the Senate, which
began debate on the matter Mon-~
day, is not considering the bill, but
only a motion to allow considera
tion of the bill.
Other matters under Congress
ional consideration:
Reorganization—Senate reaction
was mixed to President Truman’s
plans for the Reconstruction Fin
ance Corporation.
Opposition appeared likely to
one reorganization provision which
would put the RFC in the Com
merce Department. Fewer objec
tions were raised immediately to
the transfer of RFC’s role in gov
ernment financing to the Housing
and Home Finance Agency.
Senator Taft, who is opposed to
another presidential plan which
would reorganize the National La
bor Relations Board, planned to
ask the Senate to set aside FEPC
debate temporarily tomorrow to
vote on his reselution disapprov

MIDWESTERN FLOOD
CLAIMS 17 PERSONS
Three States Swept By Worst
-
Floods In Years; Damage Rises
By The Associated Press
Seventeen persons were dead or missing and more thous
ands were homeless today as the most damaging floods in
years swept over three Midwest States.
Human misery rose in the flood areas of North Dakota,
Minnesota and Nebraska. Scores of communities were iso
lated as the surging water from rain-swollen rivers and
streams spilled out over thousands of acres of land.
Across the border in southern
Manitoba, the flood crisis mount
ed. The homeless was some 15,000,
tl;g another 10,000 faced evacua-
All the fatalities were in Ne
braska. One of the worst floods
in nearly 50 years struck the
southeastern section of the state
yesterday. Seven bodies had been
recovered. Hope was abandoned
for the other 10 missing persons.
The flash floods that hit south~
east Nebraska followed down
pours earlier in the week. The
waves of water engulfed homes
and swept cars from highways.
Most of the dead highway trav
elers were caught by the flood-
Seven or eight passengers in a
Surlington bus enroute from Ne
braska City to Lincoln were
caught in a crushing wave of wa
ter on a highway near Unadilla.
Three passengers survived by
hanging to trees. Four Nebraska
City persons fost their lives when
their car was swept from a high
way near Auburn by floodwaters.
The flooding Red River, border~
ing North Dakota and Minnesota,
dealth further devastating blows
to property and livestock. Some
other streams in northern Minne
sota also were running wild. The
Red Cross reported more families
driven irom their homes all along
the swollen Red River.
The livestock situation in North
Dakota was described as “desper
ate.” Gov. Fred G. Aandahl order
ed an aerial livestock feeding ser
vice started today.
North Dakota farmers, the
State’s Agriculture commissioner
said, “are suffering as sevrely
now as they did during the
