Any lingering doubts that a
truly vicious and malicious bomb

Ala., disappeared Wednesday with
a sober announcement from the
police department.
The latest outrage in the steel
city's grim racial conflict in
volved the detonation of two ex
plosive charges 13 minutes
apart.
The police said the first was
an apparent decoy, set off to
draw a crowd. The second ap

trap which utilized a tool box
filled with dynamite overlaid with
staples, other pieces of metal and
rocks.
The contents were meant to Later information proved that ings with white and Negro lead-1

"It's clear that law and order
have broken down; they are
throwing dynamite everywhere
and anywhere," Shuttlesworth
said.
Shuttlesworth, himself, is one of
the major points of controversy
in the stormy racial situation.
Most Birmingham white leaders
refuse to deal with him on
grounds he is "one of the out

Birmingham now has experi

Ntd For Caution
Disclosure of the new tactics
used by the bomber means that
police will have to investigate fu

like a military team going into
a mined town.
"This one could have been
planted to kill officers," Police
Inspector J.W. Haley said. "It
