south followed them here"
Although 100 Of lis persons ar
rested at the riot showed up in
court, two boys, Ronald Lusk, IL.
and Charles Hasnedl. n, were the
only ones found guilty and punish
ed Their punishment was fines Of
$40 each, plus 81 each for costs
for unlawful assembly" They
happened to have pleaded guilty.
Three men were found not
guilty. Two youngsters, Charles
Week, II, and Joseph Bartos, IS,
were held over TO the grand Jury
on charges of tampering and mall
icious mischief. Their mistake was
not the looting of the apartment,
but the turning over Of a police
mans squad car, slashing its tires,
and trying to set the auto afire.
They are being held on $500
bond each.
All the other cases were contin-
ued, with IS OF the defendants
pleading not guilty. The men who
were freed could not be identified
by police officers.
Judge Barnes decided against
hearing two suits filed before him
in connection with the riot. The
first is a 100000 damage action
filed by Clark against officials Of
Cicero. The charges that they fail
ed to protect his property when
he moved into he now-riot torn
building at e139 w. 18th 81. In
Cicero. All his property was des-
troyed as a result Of the mob's ac-
ton.
In the second actiUn. Clark 10
asking contempt Of court action
against Cicero officials. He claims
that they violated an order issued
by Judge Barnes calling for fun
protection Of his possessions when
ne decided TO move into his apart
ment.
Senator Blasts Whole ''Mess"
Sen. Paul Douglas. In a bitter
address on the senate floor, de-
clared that he was impelled to
speak out against the riot itself,
and the subsequent action Of the
Cook County grond jury. He said
In part:
Law enforcement officials
themselves were known to have
interposed threats and resistance
when the Clarks first attempted
to move into their new quarters.
Then, when a federal court in
junction removed this obstacle,
huge mob OF at least 5000 people
quickly gathered to prevent the
Negro family from moving In.
They Quilted the building by
bricks, homemade grenades, and
other weapons.
The action of the county grand
jury which followed was just as
startling II indicted the Cic-
ero police chief, but it did not in
dict any other of the law enforce
ment officials or rioters nor those
who directly melted the mob ac-
ton.
This action of the jury taken
in cold blood is a denial Of every
principle of American democracy
Coming at a time when we are
seeking the friendship Of the
darker-skinned peoples of Asia
and Africa, it win inevitably be
used against US by the masters Of
the Kremlin."

Grabbed Ice Pick

A quarrel flared after she had
made that statement, he said and
he suddenly reached into a near

At the height Of his rage he
said that he stabbed his 2I-year-
old wife Gin the chest several
times" and then tried TO commit
suicide with the same pick by
pIunging II into his own chest.
When It became apparent that
the pick wouldn't end his life he
said that he rushed into another
room and found an old-fashioned
stright razor with which he slash
ed both wrists several times.
Meanwhile his wife had run
screaming from the house and
frightened neighbors summoned
the police.

Year Round Employment With
Pay For The Small Farmer

~ = VI AHc Ouldli dfItieT
How many months a year do
you receive pay for working?
, Chances are, if you are small
farmer depending on row crops
for a livelihood, five months is
about all you get paid for, and
only then if the boil weevil
doesn't hit so hard. Is there any
wonder then that our income is
sometimes so low?
How does your income COM
pare with that of your city cou-
sin who has a weekly or month
ly pay check2 Yours could be a
great deal more if you worked on
the farm the year-round and did
work that would pay.
Then its plain that we need
employment that will increase
Jour yearly income. Livestock,
weather beef, or dairy cattle,
hogs, sheep or poultry or any
combination Of these, w h e n
worked along with your row
crops will give you this year
round employment with goo d
pay.
Allen Johnston (colored) of the
Ebenezer community is working
toward this goal. He is increas-
ing and improving his pasture
acreage and at the same time
building up his cattle herd. This
pasture work, growing and har-
vesting additional feeds and car
ing for his cattle gives him addi-
tional employment during the
slack crop seasons. Not only en-
ployment, but he'll have nice
pay check when he sells some
calves this fall
Some type of livestock enter
prise on your farm will give you
b etter land utilization, year
round employment and higher
income.
Think about it, plan your pro-
gram, and let livestock help you
help yourself.
We are anxious to help you
with your farm plan or other ag-
ricultural problems you m 6 h t
have.
