ALBANY. Ca. Aug. 10 (AP).
DIR. Martin Luther King; IT.,

Of violating city ordinances in q
prayer vigil but they were
given suspended sentences In
an unprecedented move.
Sentence was imposed by
Recorder A. N. burden. ST., who
found DR.. King and his asso-

walks and refusing to obey
an officer.
But the recorder suspended
the sentences Of $500 fines and
so. days In prison.
"I'm gotngoto let you serve
It on probation" Mr.. burden
said, making the probation
conditional upon the defend
ants not violating valid city
ordinances and general good
behavior"
The Recorder said he did not
mean DR.. King and the others
would have to obey segregation
ordinances already ruled un-
constitutional by the Supreme
Court.
The move apparently took
some Of the steam out Of two
planned demonstrations in pro-
test to the trial. It wasn't i'm
mediately known whether the

would be staged after CITY

Tracer in A-BIust
To Aid Scientists

BY the Associated Press

.
The United States enlisted
the aid of the worlds scientists

when and where radioactive

attitudes.
The Atomic Energy Commits
sion announced that, for this
purpose, a tracer material was
produced in the July 9 high.

Johnston Island in the Pacific
The material is Cadmium.

can be detected through radio.
chemical analysis. BY studying
the behavior of this tracer
scientists around the world car
gain more knowledge OF how
debris Sits down from great
heights, into and through the
earth'S atmosphere.
Cadmium-109 was used fol
the experiment because it has
a relatively long life and has
not been produced in significant
quantities in previous United
States nuclear tests. Thus il
will be relatively easy to distin-
guish it from fallout from other
nuclear blasts.
No measurable increase ir
radiation hazard will be created
by the amount of the isotope
produced in the July 9 ex-
plosion, officials said.
The announcement said in

Estes Charged by U. S.
In Second Indictment
BY MIRIAM GUTENBERG
star staff Writer

star 6taff Writer
Billie Sol Estes. the one-tiIne
Texas financial wizard. today
was indicted by q Federal grand
jury in Dallas on charges of
misrepresenting his financial
position to the Commodity
Credit Corporation in connec-
ltion with his grain storage for
the Government.
This was Estes second Fed
leral indictment. He is also
under two Texas indictments.
Deputy Attorney General
Nicholas deb. Katzenbach said
the grand jury also indicted
Robert Earl Clements, Of Am
arillo, Tex, co-founder Of the
Townsend Plan, on five counts
of transporting fraudently OBJ
tanned securities in interstate
commerce.
The three-count Estes indict-
ment returned today charges
the 37-year-old Peeos CTex0
businessman with undertaking
his liabilities in three reports
to the Commodity Credit Cor
poration, which supervises Gov
eminent storage Of surplus
grain.
Three Instances
The grand, jury cited these
three instances Of misrepre-
seHtation:
In q statement showing as
sets and liabilities submitted on
March 8. 1862, Estes claimed
his liabilities totaled sS,S52, 430
when in fact. the grand jury
said. his liabilities exceeded
$1l million.
A similar statement sub
mitted on April 8. 1851, listed
Estes liabilities at $3.50, 461
when. the grand jury charged,
the liabilities actually exceeded
$1o.4 million.
On october Q, 1861, Estes
submitted q condensed bal
ance sheet" listing his liabilities
as $7.916,740 when, the grand
jury charged. they actually ex-
ceeded '$12 million.
The earlier Federal indict-
ment against Estes came on
April 5, when q Federal grand
jury in FL Paso. Tex, charged
him with eight counts Of mail
fraud and transportation of
fraudulently obtained securi-
ties in interstate commerce.
That indictment was expanded
on June 81 to 20 counts.
Indicted with Estes in both
the original and expanded Sc
curities indictments were the
Superior Manufacturing Co.
which manufactures anhydrous
ammonia fertilizer tanks, and
three Of its officers.
Transporting Checks
The three company officers,
Ruel w. Alexander, Coleman
D. McSpadden and Harold E.
Orr, pleaded guilty to five
counts Of the indictment.
Mr.. Katzenbach said today's
indictment Of Clements, who
was the former owner of Su-
perior Manufacturing Co.,
paralleled the securities charges
against Estes but was not
directly connected with the
Estes case. NJ.

LtlaC MS decision 10 cancer the
allotments of the PecoS (TexJ
operator would have been made
final early this year.
AS 1t was, Estes was given
more time to prove the validity
of the transactions after a
January 6, 1862, meeting in
Undersecretary Of Agriculture
Charles Murphy's office. The
meeting was attended by Sen
ator Marlborough and Repre-
sentative Rutherford, Texas
Democrats.
Mr.. Bagwell was questioned
about the January 6 meeting
and the delay in canceling the
Estes cotton allotments when
he appeared as the 53rd wit
ness in the subcommittee pro-
> longed investigation of the in
dicted operator.
= Favored Treatment Sought
With Mr.. Bagwell as the wit
ness, the subcommittee began a
: detailed review of high-level
, departmental meetings and &C
: tons involving Estes in efforts
to determine whether he re-
ceived favored treatment in his
cotton allotment transactions.
Mr.. Bagwen said that while
he shared the responsibility for
the decisions on canceling the
cotton allotments he was never
informed by other officials in
the department of any Estes
threats.
They were voiced, the sub
committee had been told, when
Estes and his attorney, John
Dennison, visited the depart
ment on october 10, 1861. At
the time, Estes protested to
Wilson Tucker, deputy direc-
tor Of the cotton division, about
an Agriculture Department in
vestigation of his cotton deals.
Marshall Death Cited
Estes was said to have
threatened to embarrass the
Kennedy administration If the
investigation was not called off.
According to evidence pre-
sented to the subcommittee, he
also told Mr.. Tucker that one

gave the whole team q lift. In
