SHERIFF S
ONEPE
COLUMBIA, S. C., Feb: 18.—
(A*)—Sheriff T. Alex Heise reserved
comment tonight on whether some
40 love letters which Lieutenant S.
C. Epes wrote to a Louisiana
blond had cast any light as to the
motive in the death of the officer’s
wife, pretty 26-year-old Mary Lee
Epes.
The young woman's body was
unearthed from its foxhole grave
near the Fort Jackson military
reservation last Wednesday — 16
days after Epes, 29, said he buried
it after she died of an overdose of
sedatives.
The letters, obtained from a Lake
Charles war plant worker by Sher
iff Henry A. Reid, Jr., were read
by Heise yesterday. Reid said the
20-year-old girl, whose name was
withheld, told him she and Epes
were “merely good friends.” The
letters closed with “love.'’
Heise sought today to recover
Mrs. Epes’ pocketbook which he
said Epes told him he had “plant
ed'' in a downtown gutter January
29 so that police would develop
a kidnap theory after he reported
her missing.
“The pocketbook is one of the
important pieces of evidence which
we must have,” Heise said “It’s
return will facilitate the investiga
tion.”
The purse was described as is
to 18 inches long and about nine
inches wide, made of a gray pin
striped cloth. The sheriff offered
a $50 reward, in addition to a $100
reward previously put up by Epes,
for the pocketbook’s" return, with
no questions asked.
Heise said a Richmond, Va., at
torney had been employed as coun
sel for the young officer, son of a
wealthy Virginia family, and was
expected here tomorrow.
The sheriff said an inquest had
not been set and probably would
not be until medical technicians at
Ft. McPherson, Ga. reported their
findings after examining the con
tents of Mrs. Epes’ stomach.
Epes, held in the State peniten
tiary on a murder charge, has re
peatedly denied that he killed his
wife at their apartment the night
of January 27, but signed a state
ment he disposed of the body in a
foxhole about 2 a. m. January 28
because he became panic stricken
when her pulse stopped. The fol
lowing day he reported to police
tha^ his wife failed to return home
after shopping in downtown Co
lumbia.
Funeral services were held in
Atlanta today for Mrs. Epes.

of the winter offensive. Gaining up
to five miles they captured Gross

Vistula directly opposite Grudziadz,
and four miles south of the west
bank town of Nowe (Neuenburgl.
At this point, and at captured War
lubien, five miles west of Montau,
the Russians were only 51 miles
south of Danzig.
Both sides were hurling in rein
forcements, and Berlin said the
situation was “critical” in that
Polish corridor area. The Russian
intention, one German broadcast
said, was to reach the Baltic and
seal off another big block of Ger
man troops in a repetition of the
maneuver that trapped perhaps 20
Nazi divisions in East Prussia.
In German Pomerania the Rus
sians said their troops beat off big
German infantry and tank counter
attacks south and southeast of
Stargard, 20 miles east of Stettin,
Berlin's Baltic port at the mouth of
the Oder river.
Seventy miles east of Stargard
the Russians liquidated another
surrounded group of Germans north
of fallen Schneidemuehl, capturing
2,000, including a colonel who was
chief of the engineering service
in Schneidemuehl.
In that same area the Russians
the day before had announced the
killing of 8,000 Germans and the
capture of 2,000.

ANTI-NAZIS SEEK
TO ASSIST ALLIES
LONDON, Feb. 18.—UP)—A group
of approximately 200 exiled anti
Nazi Germans in England asked
the British government today to
allow free Germans to accompany
the British army at the front for
the organization of resistance
against Hitlerism among German
troops.
A spokesman for the movement
said the leaders considered it
fundamental that Germany must
make retribution and that the Ger
man people cannot escape re
sponsibility for the war.
“We hope this will be an oppor
tunity for Germans to make
amends and to break with the
past,” he said, “we are afraid that
without leadership such as a free
German movement the German
people may not make use of the op
portunity to achieve a democratic
reconstruction of Germany—that
the people will fail because of
apathy, disillusionment and indif
ference.”

WITH THE AEF:
Caesar’s Caves Now Yank Warehouse
By ROBERT EUNSON
(Cubstituting for Kenneth L. Dixon)
WITH THE U. S. NINTH ARMY
(JP)—Caves that Caesar’s army used
to cache supplies near Valken
burg, Holland, have been taken
over for the same purpose by e
102nd Division.
The rear echelon of the 102nd,
the Ozark’s Division, has set up
barracks and storehouses in the
limestone caverns which the Ger
mans had equipped as a rocket
bomb factory and in which Ro
man garrisons were stationed from
about 50 B. C. to 400 A. D.
I drove in a jeep into this 67
mile-long series of tunnels as the
guest of Lt. Louis F. Danforth of
New York, who said the place was
big enough to house supplies for
15 divisions. Danforth and Lt. John
P. Brown of Independence, Mo.,
are in charge of all the personal
effects and Government equipment
which the 102nd's Doughboys could
not take with them to the front in
Germany.
Dr. Carl Diepen, secretary of the
Dutch association which owns the
caves, said they had been refuges
for fugitives for centuries and had
been enlarged steadily by the
quarrying of building stone.
Speaking through an interpreter,
Pvt. Harry Schwarz of New York,
Diepen said the Germans had Im
proved and remodeled the caves
with slave labor.
During the three-day fight for
Valkenburg, about 4,000 Dutch
civilians took refuge in the caves
until the battle passed them by.
Pfc. Herbert Greenberg of The
Bronx, New York, escorted me
through sections the Germans had
equipped as a bomb factory and
also through catacombs which
early Dutch Catholics had modeled
Into a copy of the Roman cata
combs.
Air conditioning, plumbing and

the Germans amid the antiquities
have been turned to American use
by Greenberg and two of his bud
dies, T-3 Louis F. Gacewla of
Buffalo, N. Y., and Pfc. Ernie
Rambo of International Falls,
Minn.
A map of the extensive tunnel
system has been made by Pfc.

BRIDGES SEEKING
ARMISTICE FACTS

lies.. Besides furnishing recon
struction labor, she would lose
her islands and colonies.
Great Brtain was reported to
receive the islands of Pantelleria,
Lampedusa and others of strate
gic importance. France would re
ceive Elba and her frontier with
Italy would be revised.
Further provisions of the pur
ported terms would give Yugo
slavia all of Istria, with the cities
of Fiume and Zara. Greece would
receive all the Italian islands in
the Aegean Sea.
The Law Review’s summary
said that "the fate of the Italian
colonies — Libya, Somalia and
Eritrea—shall be settled at the
peace conference and Italy shall
reconcile herself with its deci
sions’’.
“In the Italian ports, it con
tinued, “free ports shall be es
tablished for the benefit of the
United States, England, France,
Yugoslavia and Greece.”
In the economic field, the Italian
government was purported to have
consented to sending 2,000,000
workers “to the conquering coun
tries” for reconstruction work.
The document apportioned these
as follows: 800,000 to Russia, 200,
000 to the United States; 200,000
to Great Britain, 200,000 to Aus
tralia, 200,000 to South Africa,
200,000 to Brazil and the remain
ded to other United Nations.
The armistice terms were said
further to recognize “Anglo-Amer
ican control” over the heavy na
tional industry as well as over
the Italian banks.
"After the war,” one point said,
“fifty per cent of the capital of
these Italian enterprises shall be
in the hands of the Anglo-Saxon
powers.”
me purported terms contained
the pledge that all racial laws
would be abolished, as well as
Fascist influence, and that “M.
Mussolini shall be delivered to
he United Nations as well as all
the Fascists comprised in the
Lists of war criminals.”
The Germans, however, rescued
Mussolini before this latter pro
vision could be carried out.
At the conclusion, the purport
ed terms held out the promise of
‘a softening of the Armistice
clauses in proportion to the im
portance of Italian participation
in the fight against the enemy.”
Bridges told reporters that if
he statements made in the Law
Review are correct "the senate
jught to be informed of these
’acts by the proper officials.”
"If these statements are not
lorrect, they ought to be denied
>y the proper officicals,” he said.
‘If they are in part correct and
n part incorrect, the Senate ought
o be informed by the proper of
icials of the terms of the Italian
Vllied armistics in order that we
md the American people may be
n possession of the facts."

Vonglahn said that a policy set

ELY CULBERTSON
PUN HELD GREAT
Ely Culbertson’s total peace
plan has firmly established him
as one of the outstanding thinkers
on problems of war and peace.
Regarded by many as the only
modem, concrete and realistic
system for world security so far
developed, his plan, in the opinion
of many authorities, is the only
workable solution of the problem
of lasting peace.
Among them, Lancelot Hogben,
the British sociologist and mathe
matician, says: "My personal
view is that Ely Culbertson’s
plan is the most important con
tribution to world peace that any
writef of our generation hs am
writer of our generation has
made.”
I me son of a seventh generation
American and grandson of a Cos
sack general, Mr. Culbertson was
brought up in the Caucasus, Rus
sia and in Europe. He studied
systems of philosohy and econom
ics in the leading universities of
the world and he speaks eight
languages. Since youth he has
specialized in social systems and
his active concern with social
movements has landed him in the
jails of Russia, Spain and Mexico.
His fantastic success in the game
of bridge, which is a hobby and
a by-product of his creative
genius in the field of social sys
tems and mass psychology, did
not cause him to deviate from the
realization of his true lifework—
a scientific plan to build peace
among nations.
The Community Forum is pre
senting Ely Culbertson in a pub
lic lecture Tuesday at 8:30/p. m.
in Thalian Hall. Tickets may be
secured at the door the night of
the lecture. Mr. Culbertson also
will address the students of New
Hanover High school Wednesday
morning at 10 o’clock.

SAMMY MISSES
EASY CHANCE;
PLAYOFF TODAY
Nelson Also Muffs One By
Two Inches On Last
Hole
GUFPORT, Miss., Feb. 18 —OF)—
Consistent Byron Nelson, Toledo,
O., and Slammin' Sammy Snead,
Hot Springs, Va., finished the $5,000
Gulfport Open Golf tournament in
n dead heat today, each with a
72-hole total of 275.
Needing a par four on the 18th
hole to beat Nelson, who had com
pleted his final round a half hour
earlier, Snead shot over the green
on his second shot and his pitch
out of a divot was over the cup 15
feet. He was a foot short of the
cup for a bogey five to send the
tournament into an 18-hole playoff
tomorrow.
After shooting a one-over-par 38
on the first nine, Snead managed
to hole birdies on the 15th, 16th
and 17th holes. He came in thrad
under par to tie Nelson with a four
under 32 on the back nine.
The colorful Virginian, who had
about 75 per cent of the 2,000 spec
tators following him around the
course, pounded his ball against
the green after missing the putt
that would have given him his
fourth championship in the winter
series.
Snead led Nelson by three
strokes, 206-209 at the start of the
fourth round. Nelson got his last
18 in 32-34—66. five under par, to
put the pressure on Snead. Nelson
made five birdies, 12 pars and one
bogey on his last round.
Nelson, who beat Harold “Jug”
McSpaden by five strokes in a
playoff at New Orleans last week,
missed a 60-foot putt by two inches
on the last hole.
