Seven Men Face Slavery Charges
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (UP) — Seven white men faced federal prosecution today on charges of kidnapping and forcing into slavery four Negroes, one of whom allegedly was beaten to death.
U. S. Attorney Frank M. Johnson Jr., in charge of the Birmingham FBI office, disclosed in a joint announcement late yesterday the men had been indicted by a federal Grand Jury.
The officers revealed that a 12-count indictment returned last Friday charged the men with holding the Negroes in involuntary servitude and peonage, inducing them to work on farms where they were enslaved, kidnapping and conspiring to kidnap.
The indictment detailed an account of three heatings, including a fatal beating given one of the Negroes after he ran away and was caught.
All the men denied slavery and flogging charges through a statement made by their attorney.
Four of the defendants are brothers, members of a family which operates the wealthy Dial farm near Boyds, in west central Alabama near the Mississippi line. The brothers are Oscar Edwin Dial, 34; Fred Nickle Dial, 25; Grade Clarence Dial, 28; and Robert Mitchell Dial, 44.
The other defendants are Lindsay Wingard Dial, 43, and Arnold Dial, alias Otto Dial, 27, cousins of the four brothers, and Charles Harper, alias Francis Harper.

Lightning-Set Fires Battled in Mountains
GLENDORA (UP) — Some 145 firefighters today battled lightning-set flames in a remote mountain section 12 miles north of here and about five miles southwest of the Big Pines recreation area.
Firefighters were forced to walk most of the night over rugged. "straight-up-and-down" country to reach the blaze.
Extent of the fire, one of three touched off by a lightning storm, was not known, although estimates ranged as high as 250 acres.
A helicopter with two rangers aboard crashed yesterday as it tried to land at the scene of a fire on Iron Mountain in the Angeles national forest. The men, Roy Falconer, and Jack Paige, crawled from the wreckage and controlled the blaze.
The third fire, 7,500 feet up on Mt. Ilip, was controlled by rangers who hiked to the scene.
Claim '53 Polio Peak Has Been Passed
WASHINGTON (UP) — The Public Health Service said today the peak of the 1953 poliomyelitis outbreak apparently has been passed.
The service reported 2130 new cases occurred last week, compared with 2238 for the week of Aug. 30 and 2251 cases for the week of Aug. 23.
"It now appears that the peak for 1953 was reached in the week ended Aug. 22," the service said.
Thus far in 1953, there have been 20,339 cases. In the comparable period of 1952, there had been 27,209 cases.
The Automobile Club of New York reports that 6 percent of all pedestrian fatalities occur during the night hours. The most dangerous...

Rita to Confer on Divorce Technicality
LAS VEGAS UP—Film star Rita Hayworth was expected to confer with her attorney today to iron out a technicality in her divorce from Moselm Prince Aly Khan to make it binding internationally.

Claim U.S. Readying New H-Bomb Test
WASHINGTON (UP) — Further evidence came to light today, in the Pentagon's telephone directory, that the United States is getting set to test history's deadliest weapon of mass destruction, a deliverable H-bomb.
As the United Press reported last July, indications are that the new tests will be held at Bikini, the Atomic Energy Commission's new Pacific proving ground, 180 miles east of Eniwetok.
They may be held last this fall,
next spring, or summer, or fall. The AEC won't seize neither will the Defense Department. But the AEC defense organization that will conduct new tests has been set to give a name, Joint Task Seven.
The task force is the result of joint Task Force 132 which conducted the big hydrogeniments that wiped out an of Eniwetok atoll last year. It announced but its existence came known by virtue of that it is listed, for all in the Defense Department telephone directory.

Pravda Blasts Legion As "Fascist Mob"
MOSCOW (UP) — Pravda, the communist party newspaper, denounced the American WLegion as "Fascist mob" and a "band of brazen burglar" today in an editorial on the Legion's recent convention in St. Louis.
Speeches made to the delegates by Vice President Richard M. Nixon, Secretary of State John Foster Dulles and Defense Secretary Charles E. Wilson were criticized.
Pravda said the speeches and resolutions approved at the convention were aimed at "fanning war hysteria in the United States."

Miss Hayworth's attorney, Bartley Crum, who negotiated the million dollar settlement in Paris, was en route to the West Coast by plane.
The technicality in Miss Hayworth's divorce is that Aly did not make an appearance in the Nevada court that granted it, and the decree is therefore not valid in Europe and some other areas.
We're right proud of how much our little want ads do.

52 Hopefuls Vie For Miss America
By HARMAN W. NICHOLS
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J., (UP)—Fifty two hopeful young beauties primped and practiced their talents today in final preparation for the election of Miss America of 1954.
The judging starts tonight and the new Miss America will be crowned on Saturday.
To be awarded the coveted crown the winner must look stunning in a bathing suit, like a queen in an evening gown and sing like a lark, or otherwise display some great talent.
A crisis developed in the annual beauty pageant yesterday when two entrants, Miss Massachusetts, Lois Sandra Feldman, and Miss Louisiana, Sonya Lee LeBlanc, discovered they had prepared ballet dances to the same piece of music.
Miss Feldman suggested Miss LeBlanc change her tune and vice versa.
The squabble was settled in short order by contest officials who told the girls they could not change their selections. Contest rules forbid it.
The girls smiled and hugged each other when they were told they would not appear on the same night. Miss Louisiana will dance Thursday night and Miss Massachusetts on Friday.
Betty Lou Lindy, the 20-year-old Miss Arizona, whose bobby is studying poisonous animals in her state, hopes her talent with the piano will enable her to win the title and continue with her music.
Kathleen Ann Archibald, the Miss Canada in the contest, would like to win a scholarship to enable her to fulfill her ambition, become a veterinarian.
CANANDAIGUA, N.Y. (UP)—Attorneys hoped to complete selection of a jury today for the trial of a 19-year-old ex-Marine who killed five persons in a cross country rampage last spring.
Nine jurors had been chosen when court recessed late yesterday in the trial of Fred Eugene McManus, who is being tried here for the murder of his first victim, William Braverman, 19, Rochester, N.Y., a Hobart College student.
Braverman was slain last March 27 after he gave McManus a ride toward Rochester in his car. Later McManus drove Braverman's new red convertible to Minnesota, where he killed four more persons in robberies which netted a total of $37.
Ava, Frankie Feuding As Marriage Testers
NEW YORK (UP)—Ava and Frankie are feuding in frosty silence today just 13 city blocks apart.
The two year marriage of beautiful Miss Gardner and hot tempered Simatra is teetering on the brink of a telephone call. Each one apparently feels the other should phone first, so they're sitting out the deadlock in two different hotels.
A friend said Ava was angry because Frank hurried back to this country without here.
Simatra, currently singing at the Riviera night club, told his friends he was completely mystified over Ava's unannounced return three days ago and her anger. He refused to say why he didn't pick up the phone and ask Ava.
The task force is the successor of Joint Task Force 132 which conducted the big hydrogen experiments that wiped out an island of Eniwetok atoll last fall. Its creation has never been publicly announced but its existence became known by virtue of the fact that it is listed, for all to read, in the Defense Department's latest telephone directory.
