The windup came as an anti
climax to a tense day in which
local officers swore in vigilante
police and Gov. Frank Clement
ordered 100 highway patrolmen
and units of the National Guard.
While the crowd was still mill
ing on the lawn. two rifle shots
were fired into the second floor
of the courthouse. according to
Leo Grant, chief of the auxiliary
police.
He said the shots apparently
were aimed at Buford Lewallen

schools and son Of Mayor w. E
Lewallen.

Tennessee pro-segregation groups
to protest Clinton High Schools

other mob such as the one that
rocked this little town in a reign
of terror for several hours after
a mass meeting Friday night.
Tonight's crowd began gath
ering early, and slowly over
whelmed efforts of more than 40
local police and vigilantes to keep
the individuals moving along.
Gradually a crowd Of about
500 pushed onto the courthouse
lawn with catcalls and shouts of
"Nigger lovers!" and get their
guns and kill them"
The vigilantes drove them
back into the street with tear
gas and a shot fired into the
air.

Minutes later the highway pa
trolmen reared into town with
sirens and lights blaring. They
surrounded the square and al

The New Haven Register re-
ported that a woman telephoned

Emuttered in a cultural voice:
s'The baby is safe"
Hamden police officials said
Like every other bit of infor-
Imation that comes to us, this
report will be checked out"

stockX, dark-complexioned young
woman of taking blue-eyed,

She is the daughter of Mr.. and

back into the store. crying:
I
MY baby is gone! My baby

the woman. whose description
was pieced together by police re-
ceiving reports from shoppers
who called into the police head
quarters hours later.

Russians Deport .Hungarians East In Sealed Trains

VIENNA, R-Radio Budapest said today Hungarians were being deported to the east in sealed railway cars by Russian troops trying to end the rebellion in Hungary and get the workers back to work.
 The Budapest station, controlled by the Russian-imposed govern ment of Premier Janos Kadar, made the surprising admission in a broadcast explaining why the general strike was continuing.
 Reporting on the situation late today in Szolnok County southeast of Budapest, the radio reported about 40 percent of the workers had returned to work and that some rail traffic had started.
 ''But," the station added, "ac- cording to the latest reports, pris- oners have been transplanted to the east in locked railway cars and for that reason the railway men started to strike again"
 The station added that various plants had been notified of the deportation of Hungarians and that workers, therefore, now are leaving their jobs in increasing numbers"
 Rumors the Russians were rounding up rebellious youths for deportation have circulated on the Austrian border for several days.
 The Vienna newspaper Der Kurier quoted Hungarian refu- gees as reporting the Russians also have started deporting the wives and children of rebels in order to stamp out the last vestig- es of the anti-Communist revolu- tion.

South Asia Nations DenOunce Soviet Action in Hungary

NEW DELHI, India, R-The Prime Ministers of India, Burma Indonesia and Ceylon called in 8 joint communique today for the speedy withdrawal of Soviet forc- es from Hungary.
 They also voiced strong disap- proval and distress at the aggres- sion and intervention by the great powers against weaker countries in the Middle East.
 The communique was issued after three-day conference con- vened at the suggestion of Indo- nesia to consider IsraePs attack on Egypt and British-French op- erations in the Suez Canal zone. The final text, however, by men tioning "the great powers" could be taken to apply to Russia as well.
 Reminding the world that these south Asian Prime Ministers rep resent ATS million persons, the communique said of Hungary:
 ''They regret that Soviet forces, which had been withdrawn in ac- cordance with the policy laid down in the statement issued by the government of the Soviet Union on Oct. 30, were reintro- duced into Budapest a few days later. The Prime Ministers con- slider it the inalienable right of every country to shape for itself its own destiny, free from all ex- ternal pressures.
 "They are of the opinion that the Soviet forces should be with drawn from Hungary speedily, and that the Hungarian people should be left free to decide their own future and form of govern ment they will have without in tervention from any quarter"

Relief Supplies
 For Hungary Gut Red Cross Depots
By WATSON SIMS

LONDON, R-A veteran wei fare worker looked at the small mountain of Hungarian relief sup plies blocking the Red Cross of fee in London and shook her head in wonder.
 ''It has been long time since England saw anything like this, J she said. Certainly not since the east coast floods of 1853"
 Throughout western Europe, welfare workers are telling the same story. The free world, they say, is sending the shirt off it's back and the ring off its finger to help Hungarian refugees and oth- CT victims of last weeks Russian repression.
 More than $10 million in money has been given or pledged in vol untary contributions, and the amount is rising by the hour.
 Thousands of tons of medicine, food, clothing and other supplies have already been sent to Buda- pest or points along the Hungar- ian border. A vast backlog of ad- ditional supplies is clogging relief depots turnout west Europe.
 Dozens of organizations, rang ing from state governments to ele- mentary school classes, have pledged assistance to the wounded and homeless in the revolt-torn nation and to the refugees fleeing across her borders.
 Twelve nations have promised asylum to more than 28,000 refu- gees. In Belgium alone, welfare workers say the number of offers to adopt Hungarian children ex- ceeds the total number of those who have escaped the country.
