Harlan witness tells of bribe to hide-out. Washington, D.C., April 28. Hugh Taylor, former Harlan County, Ky. Deputy Sheriff, told the La Follette Civil Liberties Committee today that High Sheriff T.R. Middleton offered him $2,000 to hide out during the present investigation. With both hands crippled by bullet wounds, Taylor declared he spent two weeks in emergency hospital here in March after being forced to flee Harlan hospital. He was shot, he said, by two other deputies, probably because he refused to join in the Musick murder, 4281937

Conversion. Floor waxer plant. Now making machine gun cover plates, this machine was converted from a line shaft drive to motor drive when a small Eastern manufacturing company converted its product from floor waxers to small parts for war equipment. Unable to purchase new equipment for his defense work, the owner bought second-hand equipment and remodelled it. Delivery of first orders was made thirty days after contract, an amazingly short time considering that conversion of the machinery took two weeks of it. Floorola Products Inc., York, Pennsylvania

"The Mill School" at Avondale. The mill gate is but a few feet to the right of the photo and the employees pass through the school yard continually. From all I could gather on the question, the school is only a makeshift, because the mill children go here only the eight weeks of the year to comply with the law. Attendance is irregular. In the lowest first grade, with a child of six years, were two girls of fourteen and fifteen who had been to school but two weeks in their lives. (See photo and label 1742A. Also photo 1743A.) Location: Birmingham, Alabama.

A family whose history has been a stormy one and the father shot for refusing to collect loot. The family was living in Lille when it was sacked in October 1914. The older girl on the right was arrested for giving chocolate to French prisoners and was locked up for two weeks. Finally her mother had to buy her release from the German Commandant by selling her wedding ring and all the family treasures. This money went either to the German government or to the Commandant. The case is typical of a large member of arrests made about that time. Another daughter twenty years old was taken away by the German Commandant and has never been seen since. The family was rapatrie through Evian. They were brutally treated on the way and had to sleep in the open fields for 19 days with hardly any food. They are sheltered by the A.R.C. in the comfortable home shown in the picture. They have been given furniture and the older children have secured employment through the A.R.C. Two sons are in the French Army
