Store Owner Free
In Georgia Killing

COLUMBUS, Ga, Mar. up.
"A Superior Court grand jury
has refused to indict Lucio Flow
ers, white store owner, for the
fatal shooting of DR.. Thomas
Brewer, Negro leader.
While the grand jury hears
evidence and acts in secrecy, it
appeared the jury yesterday took
the position that Mr.. Flowers
killed in self defense. Solicitor
General John Land told news
men before the hearing that a
witness saw, the 61-year-old DR..
Brewer reach into a pocket just
before the 54-year-old merchant
opened fire. And, Mr.. Land said,
q pistol later was found by police
in his pocket.
The jury's action cleared the
way for the release Of Mr.. Flow
ers, who had been held without
bond since the February Is kill
ing in Mr.. Flowers store.
DIR. Brewer was active in the
National Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People. but
an NAACP spokesman said that
organization was not involved in
the case in any way.
Investigators said the two men
had been friends until recently
when they fell out over Mr..
Flowers refusal to testify in a
police hearing into the arrest Of
q Negro in front of the Flowers
store in a Negro section. Dr.
Brewer felt the officers used I'M
necessary force in the arrest.

Of notification
The theory Of interposition
holds that the Federal Govern
ment exercises its authority by
favor of the several States and
that the States can interpose
their sovereignty when the Fed
eral Government exceeds the
power granted it by the States
In carrying out a policy of nulli-
flcation, a State would impede
or seek to prevent the operation
and enforcement of a Federal
law within its borders.

Gov. j. P. Coleman favored
interposition over notification
on the grounds that notification
implies use of force to become
effective.

overload off the Receiving Home

Eighteen new salaries, author

have come out of savings from
this years budget. But there
aren't enough savings to do it,

This morning there were LOG
children in the institution, which
was built to hold 43. They were
sleeping on mattresses in the
halls and in recreation" space
! Constant overcrowding of the
home led the department to ask
for the 10 new salaries. After
being assured that the positions
were authorized by the Commits
sioners in the budget now before
Congress, and that there hao
been enough savings from va
! cancies in the department thi.
year to pay the workers, Mr.
Mclaughlin authorized the hir-
ing.

welfare director, today told The
Star the savings had not beer
enough to hire the 10 and oper
the units.
Six Needed for rs Boys
Six counselors are needed fol
each 25-boy unit to provide one
adult present around the clock
through the week.

Mr.. Brewer said, the unit will
be opened with five counselors
and fll-in help from other work
ers at the institution.
This is all the department will
be able to do with the situation
for another month, Mr.. Brewer
said. Later, he hopes to have
more unspent salary money to
apply to the opening of another
unit.

there have been no recent Incl
