Boyfs Description
Leads To Arrest
Of Negro Burglar
An 11-year-old boy’s vivid de-
scription of a stranger that walk
ed into his parents’ home while
he was tere alone recovering
from the measles led to the
arrest of a 22-year-old Brenham
negro early Friday afternoon.
Bryan Greenwade, son of Mr.
and Mrs. B. P. Greenwade. was
lying on a living room couch
about 10:45 a. m. when he look
ed up and saw the nero walk-
ing into the room. The negro
fled. and young Greenwade ran
to the home of a neighbor, who
notified Mrs. Greenwade, who
was downtown.
Sheriffs Department officers la-
ter apprehended Ira Lee Watkins,
who was charged with burglary.
The deputies say Bryan’s descrip-
tion plus that of a neighbor led
to the arrest.
Watkins later was released on
$50000 bond.
Apparently, there was nothing
stolen from the house, according
to officers. The negro made his
entrance through the back door,
but was startled by young Green-
wade’s presence and fled.
Watkins has been jailed on
burglary charges before. On one
occasion he was found by city
police officers hiding in the clos-
et of the Earl Blondes u home
following a report by neighbors
that someone had entered the
house.

Meanwhile, Sen. Price Daniel

- Sen. John C. Stennis (D-Miss.)
said that "schools will continue to
be separate in Mississippi. He said
"if driven to It" Mississippi might
follow Talmadge’s plan, but em-
phasized this would be a "last re-

Talmadge said he recognizes the
Supreme Court has ruled and its
decision “under the constitution be-
comes the supreme law of the
land.”
But he also asserted the high
court had "uprooted th* Constitu-

ers not allotted to the federal gov-
ernment or specifically denied to
the states. •

Chemical Explosion Injures 43
A ball of fire hangs over the shattered Carbide and Carbon Chemical Company plant
at Institute, W. Va., after a series of five explosions injured at least 43 workmen. The
initial explosion, which ripped through a tank car, containing an “organic” compound,
was felt 15 miles away, ana shattered windows of homes and stores more than a mile from
the scene. Eighty-five other workmen in the plant at the time escaped injury. (NEA

had been done about it.
Stevens said the matter had been
"on ice" until he heard from Cohn,
chief counsel of Sen Joseph R. Mc-
Carthy’s permanent investigating
subcommittee, or Schine.
"Do you want me to talk with
Allen Dulles?” Stevens asked. "I
might do it."
। Cohn urged him to do so and
said he would "appreciate that."
Special subcommittee counsel

cript of the Oct. 27 call, the seventh
made public Monday in the Cohn-
