BiIbo Under Probe by
War Profits Group

WASHINGTON. - The recent
disclosure that Sen. Theodore G.
Bilbo is being Investigated by a
special Senate committee on
charges that he received a $4,000
contribution from a Mississippi
war contractor, leads Negroes and
liberal leaders to believe that their
long time fight to have, him re
moved from public office will soor
be concluded.
The alleged investigation Of Bill
DO was brought to light Sunday
when Sen. Ferguson, Michigan Re-
publican who is a member of the
Senate committee which has been
probing war contracts, told an in
terviewer in Detroit that his COM
nnittee had been "delving into GER
tain phases" of complaints re-
ceived against the Mississippi SEN
ator.
HWhen our preliminary work is
completed little doubt exists that
Senator Bilbo will be invited to APP
pear before u.s." he added.
Francis D. Flanagan, assistant
committee counsel, declined to re-
veal details of the inquiry, but it
was reported that investigators
had been sent to Mississippi for a
check of the charges.
In the meantime, the Supreme
Court, in the first working session
of its new term Monday refused
to enjoin Sen. Bilbo from taking
his seat in January. The injunc-
ton was sought by James L. P.
Rumble Of New York, who sale
Bilbo had urged disfranchisement
of Negroes.
The charges that Bilbo received
war profits were made during the
1916 Mississippi primary CAM
paign by Ross Collins, former rep
resentative and one of the three
men Bilbo defeated for the nomi-
nation for his third six year term
in the Senate.
No hearing on the charges
against Bilbo has been set by the
committee. If the preliminary i'll
vestigation should warrant hear
-ings, they will be scheduled after
the November election, because
Chairman Kilgore and other mem
bers of the committee are cam
paigning for reelection.

ing war criminals is happening
here.
1t. Clarence w. Burks, Pitts
burgh, is the assistant trial judge

ernment's case against Capt. Italo

of an American army pilot on
Feb. s, 1915.
According to in f m t n
brought out during the trial, the
murdered pilot was member Of
the 57th Fighter group. He was
captured near Castelnuovo about

chuting from his plane. Brought
to the Monte Rosa division, he was
questioned by Capt. Simonitti and

fore Capt. Simonitti as a war

His role in the case has been
questioning of the defendants,
which include Gen. Mario Carloni,
in addition to Pilon and Simonitti.

No Orders Received
Here To Lift
Mexican Cattle Ban

Despite government announce
ments that the Mexican border will
be opened today for the importation
of Mexican cattle into the US, at
late hour yesterday no official
orders to put the regulation into
effect had been received by local
Customs and Department of Agri-
culture officials.
No Mexican cattle have been i'm
ported here since this spring, due to
a possibility of hoof and mouth dis
ease infestation among Mexican
live stock following introduction of
bulls into the Southern Republic
from South America. President
Harry Truman, in speech Monday
night announcing the end of OPA
control of meat, said Mexican cattle
had been given clean bill Of health
and would be imported to augment
the present short meat supply in
this country.
The office of Ernesto Elias, prom
inent Sonora cattleman, yesterday
said there we're no known shipments
of cattle enroute here for crossing
into the United States. However
ten carloads are scheduled to pass
through here in bond tomorrow en-
route for Lower California.
