PapaI Envoy Hostility
Rising Irrespective Of
Faith, Baptists Say

The Baptist Joint Committee on
Public Affairs said today opposi-
ton to naming a United States
ambassador to the Vatican has
grown rapidly among Americans
irrespective of religious belief.
AS a result, the statement con-
|tinued, there would be strong re-
sentiment even If President Tru-
man modified his plan to send a
full ambassador and appointed in
stead a personal representative to
the Pope.
The committee, composed of
officials of four leading Baptist
conventions. added in it's report
adopted at yesterdays annual
meeting:
"The reason at first most en-
phasized by proponents of the ap-
pointment-that the United States
needs to avail itself of the Vatican
as a listening post'-will not bear
scrutiny.
''No Longer So."
IF the Vatican was ever at any
time an invaluable source of in
formation. it is no longer so,
handicapped as it is in the very
places where otherwise it might
be helpful"
A later section made it plain
Evening star., 1952-03-05

this was a reference to the Cath
olic Church's "sufferings and per-
secutions behind the Iron Cur
tain"
The meeting also approved
statements strongly commencing
the United Nations as an agency
for world peace and supporting
the Genocide Convention outlaw
ing persecution Of minorities.
Says Attacks Ignored.
Another statement charged that
attacks on a Baptist church in
Bogota, Colombia, by crowds re-
ported to have been led by a Ro-
man Catholic priest, have been
ignored by Colombian authorities.
The report asserted the authors
ties have not taken any action "to
prevent further, violations Of this
kind nor has there been any evi-
dence that the Roman Catholic
church disapproves in any way of
such crimes against religious lib
erty."

Many Voters on Fence
As New HAMPSHIRE
Primary Approaches
BY The Asseeio,ed Press


CONCORD. N. H., Mar. S.
Storms Of political oratory are
raging across New Hampshire to-
day, but they do not appear to be
altering materially the pattern of
popular sentiment in these closing
days before the pivotal primary
election.
New Hampshire voters go to the
polls Tuesday. At this point, there
is every evidence that many per-
sons - especially Republicans -
have yet to make q final decision
on a candidate.
All signs indicate the race be-
tween Gen. Eisenhower and Sena-
tor Taft is very close. If there is
an edge. the general probably has
it now.
Truman Forces Satisfied.
On the Democratic side, the ef-
forts to get out the organization
vote for President Truman are in
high gear, and going exactly as
we expected" National Commit
teeman j. Emmett Kelley said to-
day.
Against it. Senator Kefauver of
Tennessee is making what he calls
IAN uphill fight" He entered the
State yesterday.
Former Navy Secretary John L.
Sullivan and ex-Senate Majority
Leader Scott Lucas opened the
drive for President Truman.
Ex-Gov. Harold E. Stassen Of
Minnesota is working through
New Hampshire and is, in his own
words, a hopeful but realistic"
third among the Republican
aSpirants.
Taft Campaigns by Letter.
Senator Taft's supporters are
counting heavily on his personal
appearances here, which begin
tomorrow and take him over wide
areas of New Hampshire in a
three-day trip. Meanwhile, they
have circulated a personal letter
from him to what they said was
a complete list of the States
10000 registered Republicans.
They believe his speeches, hand
shaking and question period per-
formances-an important fixture
OF almost every New Hampshire
political meeting-will tip the bal
ance away from Gen. Eisenhower.
Gov. Sherman Adams, leader of
the Eisenhower drive in the State,
does not agree. He said the other
day, "thiS election is not going to
be decided in the last few days"
Many Undecided.
But II many New Hampshire
voters have made up their minds,
there are many, as well, who say
they have not.
Organization leaders in the
small towns and villages, while
they inevitably tell you things
are going fine" also confirm the
existence of a wide streak of watt
and-see feeling.
The hackers of Gen. Macarthur
noting this, are mapping plans for
an intensive drive, beginning to-
morrow and following, roughly,
right behind the route Senator
Taft will take that day.

CHICAGO, July 24.-Regardless
of whether Virginia ever gets to
vote on the floor of this Demo-

important vote in committee.

submit the question again and the

Wayne County
GangSterS

But for a little matter of 140 in
tervening years it might have been
today-the reign of the Driskel mob
around Wooster, Wayne County. The
gang fiourishedo there during and i'm
mediately after the War of 1912 in
an orgy of crime little different from
that which makes today's front page
and with an end equally abrupt and
tragic.
The Driskels were of the first Set
tiers in Wayne County. The family
came from Columbiana County before
1872 and for a time were generally
regarded as honest and respectable
citizens. They lived nea Stibbs' mill
on Apple creek, east of Wooster
about a mile. The principal members
were John Driskel and his son-in-law,
Steve Brawdy.
Thefts and small crimes of every
kind finally became so common in
the neighborhood that the community
sensed that some gang of outlaws
were busy there and the authorities
began trying to run the mobsters
down. Finally a young fellow named
Ben Worthington was arrested for
stealing a yoke of oxen from Reasin
Beall and it led to Identification of
Driskel and Brawdy rs the leaders
of the gang.
Brawdy was arrested and sent to
the ~penitentiary for stealing a heifer
and for assault on Moses London
during his apprehension. London,
who was assisting in the arrest, was

stabbed.
Driskel was arrested for stealing
horses in Columbiana County and also
was sent to the ~penitentiary. How.
ever, with a ~56-pound weight chained
to his leg while working on the Ohio
canal he soon escaped. He picked uE
the weight and ran in the gunfire OF
six guards-who missed. In the wood
shed of a farmhouse nearby he found
an axe and hacked the chain in two,
freeing himself from the heavy ball,
Then he went back home to Wayne
county where the chain was filed off
his leg. g. .-s z .
Driskel lived a rurtive life after
that, stealing horses and hiding them
in thickets; hurting barns and houses
and always eluting arrest. -
When pursuit got too hot for him
Driskel went to G Ashland County,
where he sooH was captured and again
was started off to the penitentiary.
His two guards stopped overnight
with their prisoner at Sunbury, Della
ware County, and there that night
Driskel again got away. He next
was heard from in the West, where
his family and gangsters Joined him.
The gang kept up its depredations
there for years.
Eventually the regulators" of
northern Illinois captured old John,
his son William, and several of his
gang. These they Immediately lined
up and shot. Driskel's youngest son,
David, soon afterwards was caught
and was hanged to a tree. So ended
the Wayne County gang of outlaws.
Crimes of the Driskel gang mainly
consisted of burglaries, inccndiarism
and horsethefts. They hid the stolen
horses in dense thickets in the woods,
stole corn from the farmers to feed
them and when a convenient time
came around slipped them out of the
county for sale elsewhere.
The whole Driskel gang were men

of invincible courage, powerful build
and great physical strength. Huge,
big boned, barrel chested and iron
muscled, John Driskel weighed 205
pounds-but lacked his nose. 1t had
been bitten off in a fight with Isaac
Pew in Wooster.
Driskel was a bully and liked to
fight. Once on a Wooster street when
he had challenged everybody to a
fight and there had been no takers,
Driskel singled out Pew, hit him a
hard blow without warning then
sprang on him and bit off his ear.
When next muster day rolled around
Driskel and Pew both were there.
Pew followed Driskel around until he
got a good opportunity, then sprang
on him and bit off Driskel's nose.
Driskel vas whipped twice by Smith
McIntire, a young stranger who came
to Wooster. McIntire hit him only
one blow in the first fight and Driskel
was unconscious for several hours. 1t
required a doctor to revive him. In
the next fight ,McIntire knocked
Driskel out then shouldered him and
carried him to the fre.place. and threw
him in. Others pulled Driskel out of
the fire before he was. badly burned.
