the house for a week before he
decided to venture out Saturday
after FBI agents reassured him.
Police Commissioner George P.
Monaghan said Schuster and his
father, Max, had repeatedly
turned down offers of a police
guard for the tipster.
Police technicians were exam
ining the letters. Some appeared
to be frorm cranks. Others had a
more genuine ring. One, received
Saturday, accurately predicted
Schuster’s death that day.
Sutton, known to police as “The
Actor” for his disguises used in
holdups, ic in jail awaiting trial on
a bank robbery charde. He said
he was surprised by the slaying
when officers questioned him,
Two other alleged Sutton pals,
also in local jails, were of no help.
Seek Tenuto
Although™ police vigorously
sought Tenuilo on a revenge mo
tive, they put a lot of stock in the
crank theory. . :
. They figured somcone whom
zmon didn’t know might have
illed Schuster in an effort to
teach ordinary citizens to mind
their own business and not tip off
police.
Several law enforcement offi
cials saw the slaying as under
world defiance of police.
United States Attorney Myles J.
Lane called it “a challenge of the
underworld ‘to decent govern
ment.”
Schuster’s family was bitter,
“My Hero, my hero. He had to be
a hero,” said his father,
“He had to do it. And he got
his reward.”
Had Brick in His
Stomach 10 Years!
A man said for 10 years he felt
like he had a brick in his stomach,
due to undigested food he always
had inside of him. He was weak,
worn-out, headachy and swollen
with gas.
Recently he got. CERTA-VIN

disappeared the second day. This

IN MEMORY
In memory of our loving mother,
Mrs. Emmaline Allen, who de
parted this life March 10th, 1936.
Now the laborers task is over,
Now the battle day is past,
Now upon the farther shore
Lands the voyager at last.
Father, in thy gracious keeping
Leave me now thy servant sleep-

There the tears of earth are dried,
There the hidden things are clear,
Then the work of life is tried
By a juster judge than here.
Earth to earth and dust to dust,
Calmly now the words we say,
Left behind we wait and trust for
the resurrection day.

Ga. Author Day
Today is Georgia Authors- Day,
and Georgia authors enjoyed
something of a field day during
1950-51, according to a recent re
port from the University of Geor
gia, .
During that time no less than 87
books by Georgia writers were
published, and that doesn’t count
the dozens of articles or parts of
books to which Georgia writers
contributed.
A compilation of published
works by Georgians during the
period of November 1, 1950, to
November 1, 1951, shows that dur
ing that time they were working
on everything from novels to cal
culus books, from law treatises to
murder nrysteries.
. This bibilography of Georgia au
thors was compiied by John Wyatt
Bonner, University of Georgia
Library, and appeared in the
Georgia Review, %t‘xarterly literary
publication of the * Univyrsity.
Bonner found that during the year
81 Georgia authors turned out 87
full-length published books.
He defined a Georgia author as
one born in Georgia and claiming
Georgia as his native state or one
who has lived heré for a period
of five years and who did his
writing here,
“Martinet,” meaning a strict
military disciplinarian, is derived
from the name of Jean Martinet,
French infantry drill master be
tween 1660 and 1670.

MORRIS KING
RECEIVES HIS
DOCTORATE
STATESBORO, Ga., March 10—
Morris A, King, associate profes
sor and principal of the Labora
tory School at Georgia Teachers
College, was awarded the doctor
of education degree by Columbia
University this week.
A former resident of Dalton
and graduate of the University of
Georgia, Dr. King majored in
high school administration and
his doctoral dissertation was on
the matter of attracting teachers to
the rural schools of Georgia.
He has been successively a
teacher in the Athens schools, a
Naval officer, principal of the
Athens Junior High School, an
instructor at Furman University,
and principal of the Lower Rich
land High School at Lykesland,
S. C. His wife is Mrs. Gertrude
Crosland King of (2508 Alms

ville and Athens, and from that
time made her home in Athens,
except for a period of two years
following Dr. Stephens’ retire
ment, when he was visiting pro
fessor, first at L. S. U. and then
at the University of South Caro
lina. In 1924 Dr. and Mrs.
Stephens had spent six months at
Cambridge England, where Mrs.
Stephens attended the University
summer school, studying English.
Dr. and Mrs. Stephens have
been throughout their years in
Athens prominent in University
circles, in the First Methodist con
gregation and in community life.
Mrs. Stephens taught a -Sunday
School class in her church, and
remained until her recent illness,
active in its women’'s service or
ganization. She was a charter
member of the local branch,
American Association of Universi
ty Women; for several years was
president of the University Wo
man's Club; was an alumna of the
Chi Omega sorority and for a long
period a member of the Board of
tl?irectors of its house corpora
on.
The entire community wiil be
saddened by Mrs. Stephens’ pass
ing. She had availed herself of
unusually fine opportunities for
education and travel and had
maintained her interest in intel
lectual matters, reading widely
and keeping abreast of the times.
She was courageous in her con
victions, manifested a rare appre
ciation of life’s finer values and
was possessed of a keen sense of
humor and delightful wit. She
'loved to have her friends about
her and they always enjoyed her
company. Throughout the years,
the Stephens home had often been
the scene of gatherings of Uni
versity people, distinguished visi
tors, to the campus amd other
friends, and these occasions were
lalways marked by conversation
| that was sparkling and stimulat
ing.
Greatly Missed
Mrs. Stephens was a devoted
wife and mother and a firm and
steadfast friend She will be great
ly missed by the many who loved
her and yet she was one of those
persons whose spirit seemed im
perishable and whose personality
will live on in the influence of her
life on those who were associated
with her.
She is survived by her hus
band, two daughters, Mrs. Robert
Parker Jacobson of Shrewsbury,
Mass., and Mrs. Howell Erwin, jr.
of Athens; one sister, Mrs. T. A.
Uzzell of Newbern, N. C.; five
grandchildren, a number of nieces
and nephews and other relatives,

THE SAAR, one of Europe’s hotspots, became an issue again
during the NATO conferehce as the French-German dispute over
it became the worst barrier to European unification. This rich
coal-mining area of 900 square miles lies across a natural pathway
between France and Germany. Trade fiows across the Saar in
times of peace—just as armies march across it during times of war,
Romans and Gauls fought Germanic tribes in the territory. French
forces under Louis XIV and Napoleonm the Germans during
the Franco-Prussian wars. Allied forc arched into the area
during both World Wars. Severed from Germany after World War I,
the Saar was made a separate entity and governed until 1934 by
the League of Nations. In 1935, with Hitler and German nationalism
on the rise, a plebiscite was held and the Saar was returned to
Germany. Under terms of the Versailles treaty Germany bought
back the Saar mines and paid France for damage she did to coal
mines in northern France. After World War 11, the Saarlanders
voted overwhelmingly for -an economic union with France. During
1950, agreements were signed between France and the Saar giving
the territory a larger measure of autonomy, while France got a
50-year lease on the coal mines pending a final German peace
treaty. The West German government protested the lease, claim
ing their constitution provides that its government take over all the
property of the Third Reich—and the Saar was part of that state.
France wants the land because of economic necessity as well as
fear of German aggression. The U. 8., in its attempt to make NATO
an effective weapon against Soviet imperialism, found itself caught
between France's desire for the Saar, and Germany's threat to
refuse NATO partnership if the Saar isn't reiurned to her.

Chinese Troops Receive Supplies
0f Opium In Exchange For Firearms
By JACK MACBETH
NEAR THE BURMESE BOR
DER IN NORTHERN THAILAND,
March 10 — (AP) — Chinese Na
tionalist troops whe have taken
refuge in Northeastern Burma are
being supplied regularly through
an opium-for-guns smuggling ar
rangement in Thailand.
This correspondent spent five
days looking around the area ex
tending from Chiang Mai 75 miles
to the north and within 10 to 20
miles east of the Burmese border.
Sources in most cases cannot
be identified for publication, but
they include teachers, missiona
ries, official foreign observers,
leading merchants, local news
men, army officers, senior Thai
civil servants and pelice officials.
Although their information
varied in detail it outlined a gen
eral pattern strongly supported by
evidence which could be observed.
This is how the barter arrange
ment works:
A Chinese posing as a merchant,
but reported to be a Nationalist
Army Colonel, maintains head
quarters in Chiang Mai as the
link between the Chinese embas
sy in Bangkok, Thailand’s capital,
and the Nationalists in Burma.
His job is to funnel supplies re
ceived from Bangkok by air and
rail, as well as locally-produced
food and clothing, across the bor
der. He has several assistants,
In exchange the Chinese Na
tionalists in Burma send raw opi
um to Chiang Mai for forwarding
to Bangkok and onward. The
opium is grown in Burma’s Shan
states and the Yunnan provinee
of China. It long has been an im
portant though illicit industry in
this part of the country.
Since 1949 it has been stimu
lated by the presence of about
10,000 ill-equipped and hungry
Chinese Nationalist forces who
were pushed over the Burma
border by the Chinese Reds.

The Russian and Chinese Com
munist governments have accused
the United States of helping sup
py and reinforce them with troops
flown from Formosa, and have
charged that an act of aggression
against Communist China was be
ing readied in Southeast Asia.
Burma fears the situation will
lead to trouble with Red China.
An informant claiming to be
familier with the situation on the
Burma side of the border 'said
recently he had seen brand new,
American-made arms in the hands
of the Chinese there. Another in

the area said the Chinese recently
had built a new airfield under the
