The Reds returned another 14 . Americans at the "Freedom Gate" | exchange point today, including l tome who had survived the bitter flighting for “Bunker Hill’ and “old F Baldy” less than a month ago. * They promised another 40 Ameri cans for tomorrow, bringing the total to 11# since the exchange be gan last Monday. Today’s liberated Americans told of markedly improved treatment at the hands of the Reds than did earlier returnees. Part of the improvement was attributed to the fact that they were captured more recently than others and the fact that Chinese gen erally have treated prisoners better than the North Koreans. A returned Colombian prisoner said his unit ran “really short of ammunition’’ on Old Baldy. The Red announcement on pri- Boners was ambiguous in its word ** but cferk apparently chose* to accept it as Red agreement to tee “inescapable obligation" of the Gen eva Convention on the treatment of sick and wounded war prisoners. |* .

Some of the Jamboree highlights making it a never to be forgotten experience will be: 1. Simultaneous section and unit flag raising ceremony on the open ing day. 2. Opening ceremony on July 17. 3.

Arena shows—tremendous dis play of pageantry, historical drama and Scouting skills presented in the Jamboree arena by representatives of all regions. 5. Formal religious services for all faiths on July l#. 6. A grand Convocation to be held in the evening memoralixlng the Brotherhood of Scouting and the Twelfth Scout law. 7. Special displays and feature programs in assembly areas on at least three afternoons. 8. A closing ceremony on July 23, based on the theme “Forward uu liberty’s Team.” A typical daily schedule is as • follows: 7:00 Reveille 7:20 Breakfast 9:00 Morning Activity Period 1 12:30 Lunch 2:00 Afternoon Activity Periods ! 6:00 Supper 8:16 Arena Shows, campfires, etc. ’ 10:00 Taps. 1 In order to take care of unex pected sickness or injury on the train a staff of doctors will be on duty.

The Council has moved < the registration in advance few ten i additional Scouts, so if you plan on f going you had better act at once. 1 (Continued from page one) quests them to do so and also fur . nishes the funds. • MONEY appropriated Several months ago, the Dum city council voted ssdo for tel . purpose and a check was issued Before the check was delivered t< a government agent, Mayor Hann: ■ personally blocked the clean-ui move and the check was never de livered, a member of the oounci said today. He asked that his name not be 1 used but said that if Mayor Hanna attempts to deny it that he will expose all the facts. This news came as a blow to church leaders of the city today and many of them are joining in the move to draft Vann for the job. Vann could presumably count on the support of the two new com missoiomers, Godwin and Bryan, since Hanna opposed them in the primary. OPEN BETTING HIT Church leaders of the city have also expressed indignation that op en betting was allowed to go on in front of the voting place on Tues day. The betting was so open that those engaged posed for a picture, published in The Daily Record. If Vann makes the race, high taxes and heavy spending are ex pected to be among the issues. Anti-administration forces indi cated that if Mr. Vann decides not to make the race, they’ll bring out another candidate. President (CMtiuU Prom Pace Om, get date for the build-up of Euro pean defenses under the North At lantic Treaty Organisation. He said that would be crazy. The President was asked how he felt about the prisoner exchange and the Korean situation in gen eral in view of the Communist brutality brought to light, by re turning Allied prisoners. He said cautiously that he had not yet re ceived a complete and full report enabling him to separate general facts from isolated instances. Some of the taint of bad faith ■ was rubbed off tee Reds late Wed nesday night when they revealed they will return more than the 605 sick and wounded men, including 120 Americans, which they orig inally promised. But this alone was not enough to restore the optimism regarding a truce that prevailed before the prisoner exchanges started and brought stories of brutality, starva tion and sicker men left behind. The Communists acted only af ter military men' here and in Ko rea had called their first figure “incredibly low,” a protest that ga thered weight from reports of first prisoners returned. The additional men now to be returned were des cribed as “captured recently,” leav ing unanswered questions the ' condition and whereabouts of lam-,; dreds of men captured early In the ' war Seattle Bound (Continued from page one) from Cheyenne, Wyo., to Seattle and the Civil Aeronautics Admini stration said it had only enough fuel to last until 3:45 a. m. PST. The pilot last reported his po sition at 12:45 a. m. over Easton, Wash., a tiny mountain community on the east side of Snoqualmie Pass. THICK FOG A thick fog blanket covered the ; region and the weather bureau re-' ported “visibility sere.” A • search ( plane from McChord Air Force , Base near Tacoma, Wash., took off j to fly over the area but other air ( search operations awaited clearing weather. Two Coast Guard communica tions trucks were dispatched to Bandera, Wash., about 40 miles east of Seattle. The Coast Guard said Bandera was in line with, the route of flight the plane was taking. The CAA earlier had reported, the plane was a Miami Airlines craft but Neston Lucignanl, office manager for Miami Airlines,' said the film’s three planes were ac counted for. A Miami Airlines DC-3 carrying 32 military personnel and a crew of three crashed near Selleck, Wash., April 14 killing six persons. Selleck is only a few miles from Bandera.

Reversing an earlier decision, the school advisory group decided to have one more meeting before the summer recess. This will be held June 15 in Lillington. Cotton Farmers a(ContL»e<l from page one) y , itrOls are deemed necessary. Following is a complete state ment issued by Mr. Hardy at his headquarters here today: “The present cotton law fails to provide equitable distribution of county and state allotments among farms in the Carolines and Virgin ia. The law as It is now written is satisfactory for strictly cotton counties in the far southern cot ton states and the Delta area, but is far from being the fair method for alloting acreage for the div ersified farming practices in this section of the country. Although farms in different counties will show similar acreages of cropland, yet they will receive substantially different allotments. In other cases farms having similar acreages of cropland will receive the same al lotment although tneir individual history of cotton planting is vastly different. “The minimum allotment pro vision places much of a state’s acre age on tyrpis that ordinarily do ijpt plant cotton, except when acre age controls are In effect. This se verely penalizes the regular cotton producer and gives thf farmer who is not a regular producer the ad vantage of higher prices during a control year. Every effort must be made by Farm organizations and all interested phase# of the cotton industry to correct these Inequali ties and protect the' full-time cot ton producer. “The Cotton producers in the far west are going to spare no effort to brine about a change ?to in- crease their cotton acreage. They hope to have the proposed, 1964 allotments based upon their recent heavy planting* rather than on the five year average. If this move* ment is succesful, the old eastern . cotton belt, will be cut to the barest j minimum. It is becoming incregs j ingly important for the cotton pro i ducer, the ginner and the cotton j reed crusher of the eastern sea ! board to puu together and fight I this ever threatening competition iof the western planter. Only through strong organization and a C’oser cooperation of all segments of the cottoh industry in the south east wifi We be able to meet this nowerful western menace to our future as cotton producers. "The Vinners of the Carolines and Virginia have done their part in making! the ootton produced here more acceptable to world mar kets, through improved prepara tion. Our seed breeder and state a-SiHaP&'Sf tote The National Search And i Con tin (red from page one) Taylor said, and pointed out that Without a search warrant, officers could rap on any door and enter without any justified legal' reason for search. Another attorney who asked to remain anonymous Added" Offi cers know a search warrant Is ne cessary. However urgent the case, it is even more important teat the officers go armed with a search warrant when going to secure evi dence. The clerk of court and jus tice of the peace stand ready to issue search warrants. They are not too difficult to get.” Sheriff W. E. Salmon was not a vailable for comment. However, in a widely publicized case last fall the Sheriff himself arrested a Ne gro woman for bootlegging without a search warrant. The officer had gone to the house seeking infor mation about a man wanted for questioning in a robbery and found large quantities of liquor piled on the floor. The woman, Mary Bailey McNeill of Lillipgton, was convicted but an appeal was taken to superior court on grounds of illegal search. Tay lor represented her in the lower court. Neil McKay Salmon, well known Lillington attorney refused to sign the petition opposing the exemp tion of Harnett from the search and seizure rules on grounds that such a law would be unconstitutional anyway. > firr.dnV ~u "Taylor agreed, bdt'Added.iT-some 1 poor person would have to pay ter a case to be takert to tee state su- £ preme court before this was dis-a covered.” COURT HAS TROUBLES Meantime, the Harnett Recorder’s , Court, was also suffering from dis- Malng from legal tech- , nic&iiues. * ■ Tor some weeks Wednesday traf- | **PP»M«wrt«4 tee us aal Tuesday session and has dene ( njueh to remedy a crowded docket, j However, last week attorneys for » defendant being tried on Wed- i neaday raised the question of !e- i *»Hty of tee court sitting on that day. j*.
