Clubs Used On Negroes
(N.Z. Press Assn.—Copyright) BIRMINGHAM (Alabama), Jan. 13. Club-swinging police routed hundreds of screaming young Negroes in Birmingham and suburban Bessemer today when they jammed traffic with demonstrations in the two cities. About 150 were first moved in Birmingham, and less than an hour later, police in Bessemer, with gasmasks clasped to their faces, moved 300 youths sitting in the middle of the town’s busiest intersection. Three civil rights workers, one with blood streaming from his head, were arrested in Bessemer and one in Birmingham.
Boat Capsizes.— Twenty-five people, mostly women and children, are feared drowned after an oyster boat capsized yesterday in a snowstorm off the Korean west coast —only 200 yards from safety.— (Seoul, January 14.)
