Georgia in Athens for construc
tion of an infirmary on the cam

The judge recently contributed
to a new library at Georgia Tech
that is to be named for him.
He married Miss Mary Howard
in Columbus December 12, 1895.
They celebrated their golden wed
ding anniversary in 1945 at their
winter home on St. Simons Island.
Besides his widow, Judge Gil
bert is survived by one son, S.
Price Gilbert, jr.
Active in many fields, Judge
Gilbert wrote the autobiography,
“A Georgia Lawyer,” published in
1946. He devoted much effort in
getting the government to make a
national monument of historic
Fort Frederica on St. Simon's Is
land. \
Chairman of the Board of Stew
ards of St. Mark Methodist
Church, Judge Gilbert also served
as chairman of the Commission to
Revise the Code of Georgia. For

peals were Judge 1. H. Sutton,
Judge Hugh 1. Maclntyre and
Sheriff of the Court, John 1.

MANY FRIENDS HERE
The death of Judge S. Price
Gilbert is a source of deep regret
to many Athens friends of the
distinguished Georgian. A cousin
of the late Mrs. C. A. Scudder,
proninent Athenian, Judge Gil
bert often visited Athens and the
University, occasions that were
always most pleasant to those
who were privileged to hold his
friendship.

Egypt Readies
Ancient Rit
By ED POLLAK
CARIO, EGYPT, Aug. 29 —(AP)
—Then came the day when the
river Nile received a bride.
There was much rejoicing on
that sunny August afternoon, as
the sandalwood boats glided down
the Nile.
Colorful crowds lined the banks
of the mighty river and shouted
their excitement. For they were
to attend the biggest wedding
ceremony of the year.
Aboard the boats, pulled by
hundreds of oars, were govern
ment officials and priests. They
chanted hymns of thanks to the
Gods of eternal Egypt.
The bride, surrounded by a
group of girls, stood under a
multi-colored tent on the deck of
the first boat. But her attitude
reflected none of the gladness of
the crowds. There was terror in
her eyes and in the eyes of the
girls huddled about her.
When it reached mid-stream,
the flotilla stopped. The grand
priest then performed the wed
ding ceremony. Stepping to the
stern of the vessel, he recited:
“Greetings to you, Hapi, (God
of the Nile) which surges from
this land and arrives to give
Egypt life”
Then the grand Priest gave a
terse order. Soldiers seized the
bride and flung her to her bride
groom—the Nile. Then they seized
the screaming bridesmaids and
threw them overboard.
A roar rose from the crowd. The
Nile had received his bride. He
would be generous to the Egypt
ians and irrigate their fields.
This happened several thous
sand years ago. The barbarous
custom of human sacrifice was
banned long ago, but for many
years afterward superstitious pea
sants continued to throw dollars
into the Nile each year,
Today the Egyptians will once
again observe the traditional day.
There will be roaring cannon,
tireworks displays and general re
joicing.
The government-owned ship
“Akaba” festooned with bunting,
will still go out into the river and
the President of the Moslem
court will measure the depth of
the river. If it is more than 16
fathoms (98 feet), he will announ
ce: “The Nile has kept his pledge.”

lose,” they said.
But other senators hope to
make even deeper slashes.
In a formal report yesterday,
the two committees said there is
virtually unanimous agreement
“that Soviet imperialistic Com
munism poses the prinecipal threat
to world peace, to independent
nations and to free man.”
Bradley Views |
Bradley and other military lead
ers told the committees that every
cut would mean that many less
military units or that much less
military production to counter the
expanding might of the Soviet and
her satellites.
All the administration witnesses
agreed that the pending bill is the
first part of a three-year program
intended to strengthen free na
tions all around the globe. Even
tually the cost to the United States
may reach $25,000,000,000.
At one point in his testimony,
Bradley told the senators:
“I think the whole world would
!go Communist if we did not exert
| very strong leadership.
‘ “In my opinion, unless Russia
'changes her attitude and her an
inounced intentions, we are going
to be living in a period of tension
| many years.”
i BROKEN-HEARTED
LINDSAY, Ont—(AP)—Lying
!in a gutter doesn't necessarily
mean that a person is drunk, a
woman testified when she was
hailed into court for being intox
icated in a public place. “I had a
lrow with my boy friend,” she
testified. *“I was just broken
| hearted.”
Lumber Concerns
Face Prosecution
in Federal Court
ATLANTA, Aug. 29 — Facing
prosecution in federal court for
ceiling price viclations, five Geor
gia lumber concerns have made
restitution to the Office of Price
Stabilization, it was announced
today by James F. Hollingsworth,
Atlanta district director.
The five companies, located in
as many north Georgia communi
ties, have made settlements total
ing $5,152,23, this representing the
actual overcharges of which the
firmg were guilty during the last
few months. Hollingsworth ex
plained that in cases where the
evidence indicates no wilful in
tent to violate the law, an accused
concern is allowed to settle for
the exact amount of overcharge
involved.
In another Atlanta district case,
this one involving an allegedly
flagrant infraction of the price
control law, the United States
District Attorney has been re
quested to bring a suit for treble
damages, amounting to more than
$13,000, against a middle Georfgia
lumber company, Hollingsworth
said.
A survey of lumber operations
in the Atlanta district of the OPS
was launched July 1 under the
direction of Robert A. Blackwood,
director of the Enforcement
Branch, and is being pushed
throughout the district. The price
schedules of every major lumber
company in the area covered by
the Atlanta office will be scrutin
ized during the course of the sur
vey, Hollingsworth stated.

ters began broadcasting Ridgway’s
brief reply at 9 a. m. Wednesday
(6 p. m. Tuesday EST). Half an
hour later an English copy was
delivered to Red liaison officers at
Panmunjom, Communist outpost
southeast of Kaesong.
Possibilities of a truce on the
war-torn peninsula reached the
most critical juncture since armis
tice negotiations began July 10.
The conference never accom
plished more than agreeing on
subjets to be discussed during ne- 1
gotiations. The ten delegates
bogged down on the first issue — i
where to establish a demilitarized |
zone aeross Korea for the armis
tice. |
Reds wanted it on the 38th par
allel, old political dividing line be
tween North and South Korea. The
U. N. @mmand wanted it based
on the battle line, most of which
ilies north of the parallel into Red
Korea.
‘ In an effort to break the dead
‘lock, on Aug. 16 the question was
turned over to a subcommittee at
‘the suggestion of Vice Adm. C.
Turner Joy, Chief U. N. delegate.
.~ The subcommittee met six times.
It made no progress.

U. 8. Commissioner Harry B.
Steiner first set bail at $75,000
each. Acting U. S. District Attor
ney Howard K. Hoddick asked the
high amount because, he said,
eight Communist suspects else
where had jumped bail.
