CONVICT USES SECRET RADIOS 70 SEEK RELEASE HOUSTON, Texas, Oct. 20.—(P— Three clandestine radio transmit- ters operated by a prisoner have been seized at the Mississippi Peni- tentiary at Parchman, Miss, Joe McKinney, Federal Commun- ications Commission regional man- ager, said they were operated by Frank Moody, serving 50 years for armed robbery. | He said Moody had been making illicit daily broadcasts from the | prison for four years. h Here is the story McKinney told the Houston Post: For the past three months Moody had been using the transmitters in a campaign to obtain an indefinite suspension of sentence from Miss- issippi Gov. Fielding Wright. Receiving tne broadcasts were persons at Pascagoula and Buca- tunna, Miss. They in turn relay- ed information to Moody's wife to| help her plea for Moody's release. | Early in October, two ama- teur radio operators, one in Arkan- sas and one in Tennessee, advised | the Federal Cemmunications Com- | mission in Washington of strange broadcasts. | By use of long range direction- | finders, FCC agents localized the | unlicensed broadcasts to a 100 mile | | office Apologelic Letter Is Senf Brown; Grand Jury Clears "Guilt" ANHORAGE, Alaska, Oct. 20—® —A Federal grand jury has given a clean bill to Archie L.

He said) the necessary papers had been gone over in the nation’s capital and are at present being processed here The natives took an option on the plant last year, but w unable | to make the purchase because the last Congress did not appropriate enough money to make it possible.{ Mortgage Comes First ‘The money is derived from ap- propriations granted all native tribes and villages throughout the United States, and each individu: grant is made only after lengthy study by native affairs officials in Washington and the vicinity in- volved. The operation will be non-profit until the mortgage held by Uncle Sam is paid off. At that time the citizens may use profits as they see fit—to improve their village, build roads, improve - conditions or any other community project. A manager will be hired to oper- ate the cantery and to see that| it is maintained throughout the year. Seasonal employees will be natives of Klawak, who number, about 350, and perhaps a few from outside. At present Likby, McNeill and! Libby have the plant under lease, Walker said. One of the problems | to be worked out befors the pur- chase is ccnsummated is the dis- position of this lease. He expect- ed there would be a minimum of difficulty involved. A second cannery is located in the town. Owner of this plant is a native, as is Demmert. It will| continue as a private operation, in “competition” with the commun-| ity project. Loans To Get Started Pre-season loans are made by the government to the natives to pur- chase cans, repair machinery and begin operations. These loans are separate from the mortgage-secur- ed loan itself, and are secured by the season’s pack, in much the same manner as loans to a private cannery by a broker. About 25 to 30 boats normally fish for the cannery, Walker point- ed out. Government loans to the boat operators may be arranged, as er expressed great satisfac- of the two chased with govern- t a cent on ACS Gefs Millions For Consfruction HINGTON, Oct. 20 use completed goes to ilsaac Kramer Is Deqq in Sealile SEATTLE, Oct. 20.—(#— Isaac D.
