and towels.
A ninth convict also got out but
30 minutes later he surrendered
meekly in front of the prison gates.
A 10th was caught on the roof be-
fore he could flee.
Police of all nearby states were
,alerted in the manhunt for the eight
convicts, who apparently executed
a carefully planned escape for their
successful flight.
In the brief fracaS before they
went over the wall two prison
guards were wounded slightly.
Six of the escapes got away in
an automobile they stole from q
steel company employee standing
guard near a coal pile.
The other two just ran away.

Vandalism Nav
Be Subyersiye
Group Working

TONKAWA, Okla. R - A State
Crime Bureau agent and Baptist
minister agreed today they do not
believe the group which broke into
five churches last week end, mutt
lating the interiors of some and
burning others, was just a bunch
of prankish youngsters.
Instead, they limited it might be
the work of a subversive group or
possibly a deranged mind.
On the wall of one of the
churches the penciled words go
to hell" were scrubbed grotesquely.
Ministers and aroused towns
people in this city of 3,643, aided by
state authorities, mapped plans to
nab the vandals in the event of
another raid. Guards were placed
in churches in this and neighboring
cities.
"We've got to catch Them" said
Crime Bureau Agent Sid Wilson.
eve want to save other churches
in this area from the same treat
ment."
American flags, Bibles, anc reli-
gious furniture appeared to be the
prime targets of the vandals. The
Rev. ]. M. Gaskin of the Baptist
Church theorized:
'The only motive, we believe, is
a subversive action aimed prima-
rily at the flag of the United States,
the Bible and the church."
Father J. Robert Henshaw of the
Catholic Church, the most badly
damaged of the five, revealed
there was a fire two weeks ago
under similar conditions. He said
damage to his church from both
fires would reach the 5000 mark.
Previous estimates put damage
to all buildings at nearly $1,000.
The Catholic and Methodist
Churches were set ablaze Satur-
day, and while they burned, the
interior of the Baptist Church was
mutilated. Friday, the Christian
and Presbyterian Churches re-
ceived the same treatment, but no
fires were set except to American
flags on their stats.

list any other deductible expenses
he had, including that 500 spent

So he could deduct for expenses
connected with his work only if
because he was itemizing all his
personal expenses-he included
the money spent In connection
with his work, among his personal
expenses. In that way all his ex-

That's quite different from the

The Department of Justice had
requested supplemental appropria

awards rendered under the JACL-
sponsored Compromise Settlement
Amendment of the Evacuation
Claims Act of 1948 Although the
Department of Justice has already
awarded $90O0,00O under the COM
promise formula, these awards have
not yet been paid because of the
lack of funds. In an earlier hear
ing before the Senate appropria-
tions committee, the department
had expressed the hope that the
entirety of the requested $l4 800, 900
would be disbursed for payments of
compromised claims b. June 80 of

the third supplemental appropria-
tons bill for 1852.
Senator Homer Ferguson (R,
Mich) opposed the approval of any
funds, declaring that as a matter
of principle with only two months
before the fiscal 1853 budget will
become effective such items should
not be included in deficiency or
supplemental appropriations. He
urged that until the Congress actu-
ally knew how much the Depart
ment of Justice would need to pay
these compromise settlements no a.
mount should be appropriated.
Acting Minority Leader Leverett
Saltonstall (R., Mass) agreed with
his Michigan colleague saying that
this was not a question of whether
these claimants should be paid or
not but whether such appropria-
tions should be included in supple
mental or fiscal wear appropriations.
Senator Carl HAYDEN Cd Ariz),
acting chairman for the supplement
tai appropriations during floor de-
bate, urged restoration for the full
$14 100000 as a matter of simple

claimants.

However, until the supplemental
