Hooded Attack on Georgia
|, Newspaper Editor.

~ the Associated Press.
SOPERTON, Ga, March S.-SherifI
W. l. Thigpen of Trentlen County
two farmers and another man are
charged with assault with intent Il
murder on H. NJ. Flanders, editor OF
the Soperton News. who was beaten
insenHhle on the night of February
Is by hooded men.
The editors cousin. Sheriff u.
Flanders of Emmanuel County, made
the arrests late yesterday. aided by
his own deputies and two Treutler
County policemen.
The four men-Thigpen. Henry Nc
Lendon and Raymond Lee. farmers
and Raymond's son, Joe Lee, a hiling
station employee. were lodged in F'm'
manuel County jail. unable TO make
$4,000 bond. Each refused TO COM
ment.
Sheriff Flanders, active in the case
since his cousin stumbled into his
own home, sick and bleeding. an
nounced that other arrests were to
follow.
Injuries Keep Him Confined.
Flanders. confined to his home by
n spinal injury and severe shock, sup
posedly furnished the information on
which the arrests were made. AT the
time of the fiogGing he was able to
give only a sketchy statement. though
he Is said to have recognized some of
the men who beat him.
Editorials in the News condemning
rum-running in the County and state
and demanding from agencies of the
law a relentless war on bootleggers,
were believed by residents To have
brought about the fiogginG. For sew
eral weeks the editor had written in
ecorching terms of lawlessneSS in gen
eral and conditions in Treutlen Coun-
tv in particular.
Flanders was returning 10 Soper-
ton from Swayneshoro, he said, when
the incident occurred.
An automobile that trailed his own
machine for several miles darted
ahead and stopped on a narrow bridge
six miles from the town. Flanders
called on Them TO move.
Jerised Editor From. Car.
Like hell we will. was the retort.
Three hooded men followed up the re
mark by Jerking the editor bodily
from his car.
You will write in that --- panar
of yours, will you?" the larger of the
three remarked. Flanders. small
man, Weighing scarcely a hundred
pounds, was Knocked unconscious by
blow from the hooded mans fist.
Flanders, bleeding from several
wounds, mana ed to drive his automo-
bile to the town after his assailants
left.
Friends had 10 carry him home. He
collapsed before reaching his resi-
oence and for several hours was I'M
able to describe his experience.
Rewards totaling $500 have been
offered by State. County and city for
conviction of the fioggars.
