Tennessee County
Government in Grin
OF Virtual Anarchy
BY the Associated Press

BENTON, Tenn, Mar. 14.-Po-
litically-torn Polk County-scene
of a bloody election in 1948 which
left three persons dead-was I'M
easy today as a state of virtual
anarchy existed in the county
government.
The Good Government League,
a non-partisan political group,
and the Democratic Party were
wrestling for control.
At mass meeting last night,
about 700 league members voted
to hold the courthouse in open
defiance of State legislation re-
moving them from power.
Representation rInseated.
A GGL Citizens Committee
seized the building Monday and
barred the County Court, con-
trolled by Democrats, from hold
ing its first meeting since they
regained power.
The Democrats moved into the
drivers seat last month after
Thomas Lynn Johnston unseated
Frank Lowery, a GGL member, as
State representative from Polk
and Bradley Counties. Mr. Johns
ton charged election fraud.
When he replaced his political
enemy in the Tennessee General
Assembly, Mr.. Johnston sponsored
legislation diSsolving the GGL-
controlled county commission, re-
turning the government to the
County Court.
League members say they will
hold the courthouse until the leg
islative action is rescinded. The
assembly is expected to adjourn
Friday.
On Verge of Seeding.
R. E. Barclay, league leader,
sent a telegram to Gov. Gordon
Browning, which said:
Americans won their freedom
through violence and the citizens
of Polk County will keep their
freedom if it takes violence to do
it."
Mr. Barclay told league men,

out a gun before scooping up a
handful of loose diamonds and a

The gunman did not linger yes

He pulled a gun as he entered
the shop. Then he herded the

officers from three station houses

Police said the bandit again
overlooked thousands of dollars
worth of other gems in today's
haul, one of them a 200-year-old
diamond heirloom belonging to
the marchioness and her husband.
But some of the De Monteferrier
jewels-a diamond bracelet and a
pin valued at $55 ,000-were among
the loot.

FBl Will Investigate
Land Speculation al
|H-Bomb Plant Site
By Miriom Ottenberq

Attorney General McGrath has
instructed the Federal Bureau OF
Investigation to conduct a full
investigation into reported South
Carolina land grabbing, the
Justice Department revealed to-
day.
Gov. James C. Byrnes of South
Carolina had asked for a Federal
investigation of reports that big
profits were made by SPECTATORS
on the basis of advance tips that
the Government planned to build
a huge H-bomb plant in South
Carolina.
Chairman Maybank of the Sem
ate Banking Committee gave the
highlilghts of what his commit
tee had gathered to the FBI and
that agency promptly referred it
to the Justice Department for
advice"
The Attorney Generals action
gives the FBI the go-anead signal
to check into the entire land buy
ing picture in Barnweli and Aiken
Counties to see if any Federal
laws were violated in the course
of buying and selling land in the
vicinity of the $50, ,000-acre prof.
ect.
One aspect of the investigation
will be whether the land buying
resulted from leak" from those
who had advance information but
were enjoined to secrecy.
Presumably the FBI will 60
back to Senator Maybank for all
the information his committee has
gathered, and FBI agents in South
Carolina will pick up the trail from
there.
The Senate Banking Committee
obtained land records from court
houses in the two counties show
ing all real estate transactions be-
tween November /, 1850, and Feb
ruary %, 1851. The Government
announced the selection of the site
