.KIun Rebirth Asked
In South Carolina

SUMTER. S. c., June 13 R.-
E. L. Edwards of Atlanta, 46-
year-old former serviceman who
says he became imperial wizard
of the Klu Klux Klan in the
United States in 1858, called for
a rebirth of the hooded order in
the Carolinas in a speech Satur-
day night.
Beside a 30-foot burning cross,
he spoke in a field six miles
south of here. It was the first
open meeting of the khan in
South Carolina since Thomas L.
Hamilton, former Carolinas i'm
perial wizard, was sent to jail
in the summer of 1852. Hamilton
was paroled after serving almost
two years of a four-year sem
tence for participating in the
f1ogging of a Negro woman.
But Edwards told an estimated
500 men, women and children
that his organization is a new
one that "does not hate, whip,
molest or interfere" He added,
"it is a white, Protestant body
to stop outsiders from interfer-
ing with our business"
At the end of his speech
in which he also called for con-
tinued segregation-about 100
men lined up and signed ap-
plications for membership.

Staley ruled.
Intent Ruled Controlling
1.-THE jury was quite justifiet
in finding that the alleged party
conspirators were actively par.
ticipating in the group which
implemented and gave effect tt
these very teachings: Their pur.
pose and intent was actually tht

Judge William HASTE wrote 9

Judge Hastie said his study oi
the record of the original trial

proof" as would warrant submis-
that defendants "were entitled

Iquittal."
In the minority opinion, Judge
Hastie said that the defendants
I"were indicted and convicted for

IfEver You Fight a Cat
Watch Out for His Left

LONDON, June 13 (P.-In
case you never noticed, most cats
are left-handed. Parrots, too.
They're just born that way.
John Cole. an Oxford Univer-
sity researcher in physiology, re-
ported this after intensive tests
to find out why some people use
one hand in preference to the
other. Scientists call this "hand-
edness."
Mr.. Coles conclusion is that
'handedness" in animals-and
probably in man-is connected
with the structure Of nerve fibers
associated with the brain rather
that environmental factors, as
believed by some American scien-
fists.
In an article in the Journal OF
Comparative Physiology and
