CASEYVILLE. Hl.. April 8.—(UP)—
For months Clifford Lute, 13. kept a
human akuU on the mantel piece. He
thought it was an Indian relic. It was
the skull of his father.
Clifford found the skull last winter
while playing in a wooded area near
his rural home. His five brothers and
sisters envied him his find.
George Mutzel and his wife, picking
flowers in the woods Sunday, found
parts of a skeleton, fragments of cloth-
ing and a rusted pistol, loaded except
'for one empty chamber. But there
was no skull.
Clifford's mother identified the
clothing as that of her husband. Al-
bert, who disappeared May «. 1945.
Then ahe looked more closely at the
skull on the mantel piece. It had a
bullet hole.
Police said Lute had been under a
mental strain when he disappeared,
and had threatened his family. They
believed Lute had gone off into the
woods and shot himself.

Training Action
Delay Expected
By Lawmakers
WASHINGTON. April 8.—CF>—
President Truman s firm insistence on
draft extension, army-navy merger
and universal training plunged law-
makers Monday into fresh controversy
that cut sharply across party lines.
The chief executive emphasised in
his Chicago Army day speech Satur-
day that he wants selective service
continued for a year, desires the mili-
tary forces consolidated in one de-
partment and is just as strong as ever
for a peacetime training program
which he insisted would not "involve
“conscription.”
But in some senate quarters his
declaration that a necessary army of
many men “can be continuously and
adequately supplied for another year
only by the selective service act” was
interpreted as paving the way for
congressional delay on training legis-
lation.
Bridges Sees Block
Senator Bridges (R.. N. H ). a mem-
ber of the military committee, told a
reporter he doesn’t see how any train-
ing system could be set up as long
as the draft continues.
Bridges indicated also that there
may be organized opposition to any
speedy action by the military com-
mittee on proposed legislation to
unify the armed forces. The com-
mittee will take up the question Tues-
day.
Bridges said he and others on the
senate group may ask for a searching
inquiry into the proposal to put army,
navy and air under one cabinet chief,
a unification plan that Mr. Truman
promised “does not mean subordina-
tion of any branch of the service.”
Senator Wherry Oppowd
Senator Wherry of Nebraska, the
senate's Republican whip, said he is
against both unification and compul-
sory military training. He said he
• might go along with extension of the
draft, “if we cannot get enough vol-
unteers.”
Chairman Elbert Thomas (D.. Utah)
of the military committee, who is
opposed to extension of the draft and
the comnulsory training prgram, said
he Q.«"igh> the unification measure
which he helped draw "can become
law in this session if the American
people are for it.”

Negro charged with the murder of
Jesse Wisdom. Monday pleaded guilty
before District Judge Lewis Morris,
and upon recommendation of the
county attorney, was sentenced t®
serve 10 years in the penitentiary at
McAlester.
Watley admitted stabbing Wisdom
to death February 10 in a West Reno
beeg tavern, frequented by both Ne-
groes and whites.
William Mounger. assistant county
attorney, told Judge Morris that the
state's chief witness. J. W. Lee. Ne-
gro, had been stabbed in a weekend
brawl and was unable to appear in
court. .
Watley had previously been given
a suspended sentence for a lesser
crime. .

goodness, these measures were never

Admits Execution Lie
Earlier, however, when British
Prosecutor Sir David Maxwell Fyfe
asked, "You know, did you not. that if
the airmen were handed over to the
security police their chances would be
only one in a million?” Keitel replied:
"I did not know at that time what
would happen.”
Fyfe also drew from the defendant
an admission he was aware the Nazi
government's explanation of the shoot-
ing of 50 RAF airmen was a •'com-
plete and utter He."
The airmen were executed follow-
ing their escape from a Nazi prison
camp in March 1944, and the expla-
nation from Hitler’s headquarters at
that time was they were shot while
attempting to flee.
Backs Goering Story
Fyfe reminded Keitel the bodies

But Senator LaFollette (Prog.. WU.)
said he thought the preaident “makes
a mistake in continuing to hinge the
problem of our military security in
the future on permanent peacetime
conscription."
