Sheriff Says He
Helped Build Khan
Cross; Watched
Negro Attacks

ROME, Ga. - (ANP) - Deputy
Sheriff William Hartline told a fed
eral court here last week, he had
helped build a Ku KluX Khan cross
and help place it near the home of
a Negro, and had given his tacit
consent to the beating of seven, Ne
groes following the Khan ritual?
Sheriff Hartline is on trial with
Sheriff John w. Lynch, two other
deputies, and six other men, now
facing trial for the April 2 attacks
on the seven Negroes near Trenton,
Ga. They are charged with violating
the civil rights of the Negroes un-
der the 14th Amendment to the U.
S. Constitution.
Hartline's testimony may throw
the switch in this trial. Legal opin-
ion has it that unless the govern
ment can show that state officer
was involved, a federal conviction
would hardly standup in higher
courts.

tie lice, and it is quite safe to use
on animals older than 6 months of
age at the recommended c~oncentra-
ton (1/33 of l percent). This rec
commended strength of spray or dip
of 1indane (1/33 of l percent actual
gamma isomer of benzene hexachlor-
ide) is approximately equivalent to
one pound of Is percent Endane wet
table powder per 100 gallons of wa
ter. For other strengths of wettable
powders, this would be equivalent
to 2 pounds of a IL percent hndane
Oh 4 pounds of a 6 percent hndane
per 100 gallons of water.
PYrenone
Pyrenone is a material which can
be used with complete safety on all
classes of livestock. However, it is
rather expensive and the one treat
ment effect has not yet been thor
oughly Investigated under Montana
conditions. The results of investiga-
lions to date have been quite prom
Using and it is felt that pyrenone will
probably give good one-treatment
control in most cases.
Rotenone
Another safe and very economical
cattle louise insecticide is the old
standby, rotenone. The only draw
back to rotenone is that it does not
lave residual or long-lasting effect
and requires two applications about
three weeks apart to provide good
cattle louise control. In mixing a
rotenone spray or dip, one pound
of S percent r~otenone should be di-
luted to each 100 gallons of water.
When treating cattle for lice, it
must be constantly kept in mind that
cattle lice are almost always found
right down on the animals hide.
About the only exception is when
the ~infestation is so heavy that the
lice have to get farther up on the
nairs in order to line up and take
turns to get at the animal.
Coverage. Penetration Essential
Thorough coverage and complete
penetration are readily realized in
a dipping operation. Therefore, it is
felt that in general practice, dipping
is superior to spraying. On the other
hand, most of the cattle herds in
Montana are comparatively small
and it is questionable if it would be
practical to construct a dipping vat
for this small herd type of operation.
Spraying Equipment
When considering a spraying OPP
Grafton, be sure to keep the two nec-
S factors in mind. That is, COM
plete penetration to the hide and
thorough ceverage all over the ami
NAL. The best set-up found to date
for cattle louise spraying (also cattle
grub spraying) is a long, marrow al
ley. This alley should be only one
animal wide and have enough space
between the side structures to allow
the cattle to be easily sprayed.
Small pen spraying has been ex.
tensively tested and found to BIZ
unS~aLlSIdctOTy Iof the norman CdtIfs
louise operation. 1t is difficult to ge'
complete coverage of the cattle il

average herd found in Montana, til.

Tax Assessment
Reduction Denied
By Supervisor

The board of supervisors Tues
day turned down a request for a
reduction in the $i50,000 assess

The levy was made by County
Assessor Norman T. Lyons on a

LIST by the company in dredging
the Pascagoula ship channel and
Horn Island Pass.
The eompany's request for a
reduction in the assessment was
presented to the board by Stan
ford E. Morse of Gulfport. He
said that the equipment was only
here for six months and in view
of the low assessment on other
equipment of this type in the
county he believed it excessive.
Mr.. Lyons said that assess
ment blanks were sent the COM
pany. but no reply received. In
his opinion, he added, the assess
fent was fair and equitable in
view of the value of the dredge
and equipment located here.
Taxes on the assessment will
amount to approximately $4,000
