Prayer Pilgrimage In Capital Friday Plan To Press For Civil Rights Action WASHINGTON (UP)—The advance guard of a mammoth "pilgrimage” to Washington organized by Negro' leaders began arriving here today to press for civil rights action. ,« The “Prayer Pilgrimage For Freedom,” expected to draw 50,000 participants from 31 states and the District of Columbia, will be held on the steps of Lincoln Memorial. Formal ceremonies are set for Friday but delegates from California and other distant states were scheduled .to start arriving today. « Timed to coincide with the third anniversary of the Supreme Court’s school integration decision, the mass meeting is designed to commemorate the edict and protest violence against Negroes in the South, in addition to pressing for civil rights legislation at this session of Congress. The Communist Party is trying to work its way into the pilgrimage, even though the mass rally is following a religious theme and is sponsored by non-Communist organizations. Sponsors of the pilgrimage, who include the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., leader of the recent Montgomery. Ala., bus boycott, have emphasized that Communists nave not been invited and will be barred from the Official ceremonies. The sponsors said at a press conference Wednesday they do not exoect any trouble from Communists, but conceded they have no way of keeping them or anyone else away from the Lincoln Memorial grounds which are government property. The U.S. Park Police, who have jurisdiction over the Lincoln Memorial and surrounding grounds, plan to have 160 men at the mass meeting. In addition, Washington’s metropolitan police department planned to have extra personnel stationed nearby. The pilgrimage was decided on at a meeting of 97 churchmen and Negro leaders from all sections of the country at New Orleans last February. Co-chairmen are King, A. Philip Randolph, Chicago, president of the AFL-CIO brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, and Rev. Thomas Kilgore Jr., pastor of Friendship Baptist Church in Net

York City. Confesses In Note To Murdering Wife Rensselaer Man Is Sought For Murder RENSSELAER (UP) — Authorities searched underbrush today looking for Carl Dean Malone, 32, Rensselaer, who admitted in a note he killed his ex-wife Wednesday. Mrs. Geraldine Malone, 30, was shot in the face with a shotgun charge at the store she operates with her mother in Parr, Ind. State police found Malone’s car in Curtis Creek about four miles west of here Wednesday. The car had rammed a bridge abutment at high speed. It careened 100 feet into the creek. Malone left a note at his parents’ home here saying he had killed “Gerry” and was going to kill himself. He said he was going to make it look like an accident so his three children could collect the insurance.- • , « ' . , State and JaSper County authorities at first thought Malone’s body was in the creek with the wrecked car. But when they dragged the shallow creek they found only a shotgun. Blood was found on both b&nks. Torn photographs of Malone’s exwife and children were found on one bank. Today the search switched to the dense underbrush around the creek. The Jasper County sheriff’s office said it believed Malone crawled out of the creek and went into hiding.
