Woman Edifor
Attacks State
Klan Activifies
By The Assoclated Press
A pretty young woman news
paper editor accused Gov. Herman
Talmadge last night of doing noth=
ing to stop the “lawlessness and
wickedness” of the Ku Klux Klan.
She urged listeners to her radio
broadcast to support former Gov,
M. E. Thompson—a man who “will
use every resource of a state to
fight gangsterism and lawlessness
and organized crime.”
The speaker was Miss Amelia
Knoeldler, 24-year old editor of
the weekly Unadilla Observer in
South Georgia. The Governor,
making a commencement address
in his old hometown, Mcßae, was
unavailable for comment, -
Thompson, hoping to unseat Tal=
madge in the June 28 Democratic
primary, goes to Unadilla tonight
to speak on “Law and Order.” He
spoke yesterday in Jackson and
Barnesville. Thompson repeated
charges that Talmadge has a re
cord of “broken promises” and that
the Governor is trying to steal the
election with an early primary,
Before journeying to Unadilla
tonight, Thompson scheduled
speaking stops at Roberta and
Warner Robins.
Unadilla is the scene of recent
Klan disturbances and mob action.
A negro church there postponed a
special Easter service after the
white minister who was to speak
received telephone threats, Later,
a high school junior-senior ban
quet was broken up by square
dancers. =
Another gubernatorial ecandi
date, C. O, (Fat) Baker of Athens,
denied in Marietta yesterday that
he was put in the race by Gov.
Talmadge to split the Thompson
vote. Thompson has ne vote to
split, Baker asserted. |
Mooded Mobs
Miss Knoedler blamed 'Talmadge
for not suppressing “this wave of
violence” Fn Unadilla and for not
speaking out against “hoeded
mobs.”
“What kind of state is it, good
people, when ordinary persons are
afraid, even inside our own homes,
of a roaming band which has met
no opgxosmon from our state of=
fieials?" she asked.
¥, . . Neither the Governor nor
his assoeiates have sgeken against
the activities of the hooded mobs,
and never has the Georgia Bureau
o; Investigation been allowed to
offer protection to the innocent
victims who appeared in the path
of the sheeted gang. s
