FarUy elowdy and cooteTthis P3MJMC 1— Dunn Native Will Run For Gofernor's Post If He Is Drafted REDS SEEK RESUMPTION OF CEASE - FIRE TALKS Judge Acquits Carl Lamm Os Assault Counts Carl Lamm, the “Country Mayor” of Dunn’s Radio Sta tion WCKB, walked out of the Johnston County Court house a free man yesterday afternoon, acquitted of all charges in connection with the alleged assault on the wife of a Benson policeman. County Judge F. H. Brooks de clared after hearing testimony in the final session of the trial which began on July 10 that. "There's only one thing I can do; that is to find him not guilty.” Judge Brooks, declaring that he had worried about the case to a considerable extent, said the State had not proved beyond a reasonable doubt that the popular Dunn radio announcer was guilty of any crime. He gave the defendant the benefit of the doubt LAMM CONGRATULATED Following the trial, scores of spectators and others rushed up to congratulate Lamm on his acquit tal. Ttsc case had been continued and delayed several times. Lamm was alleged to have at tempted to force Mrs. E. N. Snipes into illicit relations with him on the night of June 22. Two weeks ago, Judge Brooks dis missed the charge of assault with intent to osasmit rape, as originally charged, and said he would try Lafnm only for assault on a female. Mrs. Snipes, pretty waitress at "The Sugar Bowl,” a restaurant on Highway 301 south of Smithfield, testified that Lamm had offered to take her home from work and then started out with her toward Benson. She related that two miles north of Benson, Lamm drove into a se cluded spot, put his arm around her, kissed her, and suggested that they have intimate relations. She said she resisted and Lamm then took her home.

This year it will be Sept. 7. according to Eiwood Mints, man ager of the Benson Chamber of Commerce. Mints said todKy that final plans for Benson’s annual Mule Day and Rodeo, sponsored by the chamber, are being completed. Mints met last night with Nowell Smith and Willis McLamb, co-chairmen of the chamber’s Mule Day and Rodeo committee, to plan the schedule of events for the one-day celebration. As in- previous years, there will be hog calling and greasy pole climbing, mule judging, a parade complete with floats and a beauty contest, Mints said. The Dunn High School Band is one of a num ber asked to participate. Mints said seme 10,000 people attended the 1950 edition of the yearly celebration, which ran for three days that year. Much of'the success for that venture, he stated, was due to . the hard work of Chairmen Smith and McLamb.

Economic Stabilizer Eric A. John ston ’ has told Defense Mobiltzer Charles E. Wilson to expect living costs to spiral upward that far as a result of the new controls law, it was learned. This would mean another $10,000,000,000 to $16,000,000,000 in higher prices in the next 12 months. Johnston told Wilson that the new controls law probably would have its first inflationary impact on prices of automobiles and beau ty and barber shops, informed sources said. They alone will ac count for a one per cent hike in the cost of living, or another $2,000,000,000, according to John ston. OTHERS TO BE CAUGHT But price officials anticipated that other more basic cost-of-living items—particularly food—would al so be caught up in the price spir al before the end of the year as a result of the combined effect of the new controls law and new freight rate hikes.

The Reds addressed two commu- * nica.tions to the United Nations command: 1. The North Korean and Chinese commanders messaged Gen. Mat thew B Ridgway that they already have "guaranteed faithfully" the neutrality of the conference city of Kaesong gnd asked immediate re opening ’of the truce talks there. LODGES “GRAVE PROTEST”. 2. Gen. Nam 11. the chief Com munist negotiator, lodged a formal “grave protest" charging that U. N. planes had attacked white-flagged conference supply vehicles at Sib yon. Hawngju and Sariwon, and Allied troops had fired on the vil lage of Pan Mun Jon within the Kaesong neutral area. Ridgway did not reply at once, to the Communist commanders’ request for resumption of the cease-fire conference. There was no immediate indica tion whether Ridgway would con sider the message a sufficient guarantee to order the U.
