AT WEISFIELD'S COMPLETE Brownie Hawkeye FLASH CAMERA KIT Mississippi Grand Jury Clears Men In Till Case GREENWOOD, Miss, ifl Two white men today were free of all charges in the celebrated case of Emmett Till, the H-year-old Chi cago Negro boy ho disappeared while vacationing on his uncle's farm in Mississippi. A Leflore County grand jury yes terday "declined to indict white half-brothers Roy Bryant, 24, and J. W. Milam, 36. on charges of kid naping Till from the cabin of his sharecropper uncle. . Less than a month ago, u trial Jury In a neighboring county found the two halt-brothers Innocent of murdering Till on grounds there was reasonable doubt about iden tification ol a battered body pulled from the Tallahatchie River. "The question now arises," said Executive Secretary Roy Wilkins American Air Buys 30 Jets SEATTLE m The Boeing Air plane Co. Tuesday reported a new payoff ori its "15 million dollar gamble" sale of 30 sweptwing 107 jet airliners to American Airlines. The huge transports, designed to haul more than 100' passengers, will begin transcontinental service in mid-1059, Boeing and the air line announced. ' American said It Is paying about 135 million dollars for the planes, which will replace piston-engine DC7s. Trie planes fly at a better than 500-mile-an-hour clip and are ex pected to cut about three hours off the present transcontinental sched ule. In a recent test, a 707 flew nonstop from Seattle to Washing ton and back to Seattle In 8 hours and 6 minutes. American said the jetliners will be- used first between New York and Chicago, Chicago and Los An geles and nonstop between New York and Los Angeles. Other cities will be added to the schedule later. It was the second large order in the "15 million dollar ganlble" Boeing said it took when it de cided after World War II to build the first U.S. prototype Jet air liner. Pan American World Air ways recently bought 20 707s from Boeing and 25 jet transports from Douglas Aircraft Co. for use on its overseas routes. Other companies at home and abroad also have expressed interest !n the Boeing product. The American Airlines order was hailed by Boeing officials here as an "employment stabilizer." They said it should keep employment at Boeing's Seattle and Renton plants at near the present 40,000 level lor years to come." ROCKET LOANS TOKYO Wl Kyodo news service said Wednesday Japan has asked the United amies to lend it "Honest John' rockets for ground defense forces. The "Honest John" capable of firing atomic warheads, was shown publicly to Japanese for the first time near Mt. Fulu Monday. of the NAACP In a statement In New York yesterday, "since Mis sissippi Jurors have determined that Milam and Bryant did not kidnap and murder young Till, who did commit the crimes?" Wilkins said the arand jury action, which cancelled 110,000 bonds posted bv tne two men, conies as no surprise to anyone acquainted with the administration of justice in Mississippi." Till s mother. Mrs. Mamie Bradley of Chicago, commented "Just about everything has run out on me now. I don't know what to say. I don't see how they could lau to Indict those men." She said she was thinking of 111 ing a civil suit but had no money and further action would be up to the NAACP. Mrs. Bradley was in a recent tiff with tne Negro organization, which dropped her from a proposed fund raising tour of 11 western cities for demanding a 15,000 fee or one-third of the proceeds, plus expenses. At the murder trial, she lden. tlfied the body as her son. Defense witnesses, including a doctor and an undertaker, disputed the Iden tification, contending the body was in the water too long to be Till The all-wmte. 20-man grand jury called four men who testified tor the state In the murder trial. They were Tills uncle, Mose Wright: farm hand Willie Reed, a Negro who worked on a plantation owned by Milam s brother, Leslie: Bher iff George Smith and Deputy John Ed Cothran. Wright and Reed moved to Chi cago after the sensational trial saying they feared for their lives In Mississippi. Yesterday In Seattle, Wright said, "Mississippi hasn't got any law," and added:' "I mean they don't applv the law the same to the Negro and the white man in Mississippi. Things are pretty bad for the Negro In Mississippi." He flew to Seattle to speak at an Emmett Till protest meeting. Wright told the murder trial jury that two men, one addressed as Bryant, the other bald-headed like Milam, came to his cabin before dawn Aug. 28 and took Till from his bed. He said they accused the boy or getting fresh with Bryant's wife in the country store Bryant operates at Money, Miss. In testimony that was withheld from the jury, Mrs. Bryant told how a Negro put his hands on her waist, asked for a date and added. I ve been with white women be fore." She neither Identified him by name nor indicated whether he was a man or a ooy. The sheriff and his deputy told the court that Brvant and Milam rammed taking the boy but said they released him when ne turned out to be the wrong one. Reed, . in halting, summering testimony. - attempted to place Milam with Till several hours after the purported release. The Jury foreman said his testimony was disregarded. ' At nearby Webb, Miss., a smil ing Milam said he was "happy it s all over." Bryant could not be reached for comment. "That's the end of the case as far as tills county Is concerned," said Dist. Atty. Stanny Sanders, after the grand Jury decision was announced. SMim ir'?vfrrji tumimi'V pssgBSaasam : ,- ' 'H-4..?jt. I ... C'VtttuUTSBjaal J, ..

The statement will be for release at 6:30 p.m. EST. It has been assumed for month? that Stevenson, a former governor of Illinois, will make the race. His speeches throughout the country have sounded like those of a can didate, he has conferred with many party bigwigs and he has begun assembling a staff. Earlier there was speculation Stevenson was saving his an nouncement one way or the oth er for four-day series of meet ings of party leaders from through out the nation opening In Chicago Wednesday. But some leaders, in cluding former President Tru man, urged him to let his decision be known In advance of the meet ings. The Tuesday statement would accomplish that. Stevenson may confer this week end with Sen. Estes Kefauver of Tennessee, also a likely aspirant to the Democratic nomination. Stevenson's office has an nounced that such a conference Is upcoming at an undetermined date. Both men are scheduled to attend an Israel bond drive din ner in Chicago Saturday night.
