Sealing Os Prisoner Charged To Officers Illinois Deputies Named In Warrant 1 Edwardsville. 111., Aug 17 — (U P) Three Madison county de- 1 puly sheriffs, who resigned thdr 1 jobs after a negro burglary suspec t 1 accused them of beating him with a blackjack, were named today In warrants charging a-eaulf with a deadly weapon. State's attorney C. W. Burton, swore to the charge before justice I of the peace Connell Hofmsler! yesterday. Sheriff Harry T. Hartman said last night that the warranto had not been served but that ’ the men wire expected to "come In and surrender today or tomorrow." The deputies named were Del rnur Monken. Wcaal River: Bernie Crider, Granite City, and .Marion Booth. Alton. Sheriff llurtinaii asked for and received his deputies' resignations after the prisoner. Lucian J. Hop kins. 26. Alton, told of being beaten while in their custody. Hopkins, suspect in the burglary of n 79 year old Alton woman, said the beatings occurred last Thursday when the deputies were- trans-, ferrfng him from the Alton jail to the Madison county jail al Edwardsville, 16 miles away. He said he was beaten repeatedly with blackjacks by two of the- deputies and that the customers of an Alton tavern later were invited to participate. He also told the sheriff that the deputies had urged him to try to escape so they would have an excuse for -hooting him. Hopkins suffered cuts and hrulMs alaiut the head and face but was not injured seriously, sheriff Hartman said. Hartman said the prisoner named Monken and Crider as the deputies who struck him and that Booth stood liy and permitted the heatings. After receiving Hopkins from Alton authorities, the deputies allegedly put him in an automobile and started for Edwardsville, slopping twice at taverns en route. They did not enter the tavern. Hurtman said, but roughed up their prisom-r and invited the patron- to assist. Hartman said he had talked with the deputies and that they ad ' milted Hopkins' story was substantially correct. He then demand ] ed their resignations. —I.ISIU . ■ (ft— OH—>—■! » I ai,i M Prize Steer Served I At Legion Meeting * A large crowd of Legionnaires attended the Monday night meeting of Adams P -*t 43, American Legion, and the luncheon served following the meeting.

Aug. 27 tl'Pl The European food situation is showing general Improvement with the exception of Vienna "hungriest i apltal In Europe" and the more tragic ease of Hamburg where famine and disease are taking a heavy 1011. In Austria there is an uneasy balam ti — enough to prevent starvation hut not enough to provide , the working people with nourish ment. The real black spot of the continent Is Hamburg, keystone of the Brfthh zone of Germany, where the situation has so far deteriorated that British officials are gravely concerned. Food citilditions in Hamburg an- markedly worse than they were six months ago or hist year at this time. Here l« a quick look at the food siuation as reported by United Pre** correspondents In Europe: Austria No change In the past few months with the basis ration still 1.200 calories daily and the har vest not up to expectation*. Vienna Itself has shortages of fats, sugar and meat, although there are more potatoes than for some time. Czechoslovakia with a bumper crop of fruits and vegetables, some of which will be exported. The only serious shortage I* fats and oils. Romania This year's improved wheat crop will permit raising the bread ration from 300 to 359 grams and will leave a small margin for ex poll. The drought, however, will reduce the corn crop to only 50 peipent of the national requirements and the remainder will have | to be provided by Imports. France The French food ministry estimate* the m-w wheat crop at 75 percent of prewar against 50 per cent last year. It probably will permit an increase In the bread rations. The only serious deficiency I* fat* which are a* scarce as they ' were last year Germany The Allied occupation authorit-

ies con*lder the crop and food prospect* for Germany about io percent la-tter than hist year. This will still require Hie Import of several million tons of food, c hiefly bread grains, to the western zones for a "live-aide" ration until the 1947 harvest. England Generally England s food pic titre is brighter but more abundant fish, meat and fruit hus been somewhat temperecl by rationing of bread and cakes ami reduced supplies ot milk, o— One Is Killed In Head-On Collision Clinton, Ind, Aug 27 (UP) One pers>n was killed and six injured, two of them seriously, In a head-on collision late last night om- mile west of here. The victim of the crash was Ernest Brooke. 15, Dana, Ind , a passenger In a car driven by Calvim Ammerman. 29, also ot Dana Parker, 24.
