Page 8 Gaffney Ledger Saturday, May 24, 1958 We Are Pleased To Announce i Mil Case Is Dropped In Washington For No Evidence Washington. The government dropped rape charges against the young half nephew of a South Carolina Negro who recently escaped a death sentence for the raping of a white woman. A government lawyer told Municipal Judge John Lewis Smith that he iid not have enough evidence to prosecute 18-year-old James Edward Mallory, accused of rape by a 16-year-old Negro girl. Police sail young Mallory is the half nephew of Andrew R. Mallory, 23, who was sentenced to die for rape several years ago.

The sentence was set aside last June by the U. S. Supreme Court. The high court ruled that Andrew Mallory, a former native of Spartanburg, S. had been held too long between arrest and arraignment and that a confession he made in that 7Vi hour interval shouldn't have been considered as evidence.

The government said it did not have enough evidence to bring that Mr. Wallace Best Is Now Manager Of Oar Local Gaffney Office Fast Confidential Service On All Loans 1 1 "I Av i it -ii i' La1--' 6)L ft I. 4 K. K. 1 Security Standard Credit Corp.

"Sure, we see some weaknesses now and with the help of business, we are getting rid of them," he said. "But with equally sharp eyes we also can Hee our nation's great strength and its great future possibilities." Officer Learns His Lesson Well; Catches Teacher New York Secretary of Commerce Weeks said the U. S. economy should provide 80 million jobs Hnd a annual production rate within 10 years. But business is the key to revival and future expansion, he said in an address prepared for an economic mobilization conference of businessmen, organized by the American Management Assn.

He said the government is determined to be "a stepping stone and not a stumbling block" in the path of recovery from the business recession. President Eisenhower will address the conference, in what the White House has described as a major speech on the state of the economy. Businessmen have expected him to provide some substantial clues to the administration's thinking on possible stimulants to employment, Hales and production. Weeks put the challenge squarely up to industry itself, in these words: "Irrespective of government's role in the economy, the star is business. For the chief business of private industry is to make privute industry succeed.

"Therefore businessmen, representing more than four million independent enterprises, are the key to revival and future expansion. Their information, their attitudes, their decisions, their efforts and their confidence will be among the most potent fuctors in this year's economic picture." Weeks said the prospect of great growth is clear to economists. Population will rise from 1 million to 205 V- milion in he said, and employment will climb from the present (ili, 700,000 civilian and military job holders to 4 Alameda, Calif.
