second indictment in less than four months on income tax evasion
charges:
"I certainly am not guilty. I never made out my own Income

they made them. It s a legal question whether I'm responsible or
not.

Book Officially Closed on
Emmett Till Murder Case
By AL KUETTNER j
United Press Correspondent
Sumner, Miss. (IP) The Em
mett Till case isn't mentioned
around here any more. Not un
less an "outsider" inquires about
it. Then the old bitterness and
anger wells up in the voices of
the people.
It was exactly two years ago
that the 14-year-old Negro boy
from Chicago, visiting an uncle,
was snatched from his bed at
2:30 a.m. His body, battered and
shot once through the head, was
found four days later, feet float
ing on the surface of the Talla
hachie river, torso held down by
weights.
His offense had been "acting
fresh" towards a Mississippi
white woman.
A jury of 12 men acquitted
half brothers Roy Bryant and
J. W. Milam of young Till's mur
der after a sensational trial in
th early fall of 1955 that
OF

brought reporters here from
across the nation.
Book Closed
Today the book is officially
closed on the Till case. The legal
presumption must be that, since
Bryant and Milam were acquit
ted, the real . killer is still at
large. But there is no continuing
investigation.
Barring the highly unlikely
possibility that someone with
conscience pangs comes forward
to confess, there seems no like
lihood that the case ever will be
revived.
Actually this is one of the
most "progressive" areas of rural
Mississippi in race relations. The
state is completing for October
the dedication of a fine Negro
consolidated school two miles
from the scene of the Till trial.
There are good Negro schools
dotting the landscape, including
two at Money.
No Crusade
For the present, at least, local
Negroes seem to have no heart
for making any attempt to de
mand school integration or
breaking the color barrier.
Outwardly, the Till incident
seems to have created no lasting
racial friction here. Negroes
with whom I talked spoke of
good feelings" between the two
races.
In the next breath, however,
they acknowledged that the little
town of Money has had few
Negro visitors in the past two
years because colored folks say
they are afraid to stay here."

His physician. Dr. Arthur L.
Bloomfield, said Mayer is "up
