Ex-Minister Held
For Embezzlement
Fairmont, W. Va. U.P .
An unordained Methodist min
ister who worked as a bank
teller faced arraignment today
on charges of embezzling money
"little by little."
Robert H. Drodge, 27, who
resigned a pastorate to take a
bank job, waived extradition
from Pennsylvania Monday and
voluntarily crossed to neighbor
ing West Virginia to face fed
eral prosecution.
"I want to get it over with
Drodge, of Mt. Morris,' Pa.
when he was taken by
said
FBI
agents to the state line.
J. Gordon Shanklin, special
agent in charge of the FBI of
fice in Pittsburgh, said Drodge
was charged with violation of
the Federal Reserve Act and spe
cifically with embezzling or mis
applying $2,000 on or about Aug.
13.
Ray Fisher, a service station
operator in Mt. Morris, accused
Drodge Saturday of fraudulent
pretense. Fisher said his check
ing account at the First National
Bank of Morgantown, W
where Drodge worked
teller, was short S22.500.
Va.,
Drodge admitted taking money
from Fisher's account and from
the account of another Mt. Mor
ris resident, W. F. Snowden. But
he denied the amount was so
high. He said the shortage was
about $17,500.
The former circuit minister
for the Pittsburgh Methodist
Conference said he took the
money "little by little."

Togo's Book Says
U.S. Maneuvered
Japan Into War
7 Washington (U.PJ The late
Shigenori Togo, Japan's foreign
minister at the time Pearl Har
bor was attacked, has charged
that the U.S. government man
euvered" his country into war so
it could mobilize American pub
lic opinion for the conflict.
The accusation is contained in
a forthcoming copyrighted book
by Togo, "The Cause of Japan,"
to be published by Simon and
Schuster, Inc.. of New York. Ex
cerpts from the book were con
tained in an article appearing to
day in U.S. News and World Re
port, a weekly newsmagazine.
Used as Camouflage
Togo, who died in Sugamo
prison in 1950 while serving a
sentence as war criminal, as
serted that the late President
Franklin D. Roosevelt and his
secretary of state, Cordell Hull,
used their 1941 peace negotia
tions with Japan as camouflage
to cover up preparations for the
Pacific war.
He said the November. 1941,
note that Hull handed to Japan's
special envoys in Washington
was planned to force Japan to
"commit the first overt act" of
war.
The Hull note demanded with
drawal of all Japanese forces
from China and Indochina and
restoration of Chinese sover
eignty among other things.
Most of the material in logo s
account has already been made
known either at congressional
hearings here, the war crimes
trials in Tokyo or the reminis-
censes of other olticiais. Mow-
ever, some of his arguments
seeking to justify Japan's actions
are new to the American public.
Insurgents Bolt
So. Carolina Demos
Columbia, S. C. U.P.) In
surgents bolted from the South
Carolina Democratic Party and
today set out to get an independ
ent slate of electors on the No
vember general election ballot.
Some 50 delegates who ob
jected to a unity stand adopted
by the state Democratic conven
tion Monday met afterward in a
secret night session and decided
to split from the party. They
said they would announce their
slate of electors today.
The insurgents, calling them
selves "South Carolinians for
independent electors," have the
seemingly impossible task of ob
taining 10,000 signatures in 11
days on a petition for a spot on
the ballot.

Teen-Age Ohio Gang
Seized; Fight Averted
Shadyside, Ohio U.R) Forty
teen-age gang members, includ
ing two girls, invaded this com
munity of 4.000 Monday night
but quick police action averted
a threatened fight.
The youngsters, riding in 10
cars, were stopped at the town
limits where they were taken
into custody. AH but six were
juveniles and were questioned
before they were released in the
custody of their parents. Six
young men were fined.
Shadyside police said the in
vaders were members of an east
ern Ohio gang called the "reb
els." They said the "thrill or
ganization" is known to have
about 300 members.
Police believe the gang took
its name from the motion pic
ture "Rebel Without A Cause"
which dramatized teen-age violence.
