Seized Property
Of Ministers May
Be Recovered^
Court Rules No
Grounds for Naming
Pastors in Libel Suit
By the Associated Negro Press
MONTGOMERY — Lawyers here
last week were trying to determine If
property seised from four Negro min-
isters to satisfy judgements growing
out of the New York Time** libel suit
could be recovered following a deci-
sion handed down here last week.
A federal judge ruled that there
was no legal ground for bringing the
four ministers in as defendants in a
series of libel suits against the Times.
For that reason, U. S. Dist. Judge
Frank M. Johnson, Jr., refused to
semi two of the three pending suits
back to the state court.
The four Alabama ministers—Rer.
Ralph I>. Abernathy and Rev. 8. 8.
Seay, Sr., of Montgomery, Rev. F.
L. Hhuttlesworth of Birmingham and
Rev. J. E. Lowery of Mobile—were
among those listed in the advertise-
ment as sponsors of the appeal for
funds.
But during the trials, the ministers
said their names were used without
their knowledge or consent.
Johnson, in his nine-page decision,
held that "from the facts available
to this court, no liability on the part
of the four resident defendants (the
ministers) existed under any recog-
nised theory of law."
Property has been seized by Ala-
bama authorities from all four of the
minister*.
Johnson ordered • million-dollar
Got. John Patterson and
asMVtioa*
Polk*, testifying under eroas win-
Ration by Atty. Earl a Broadgr it

lira. McNeil who tipped them til
about Pennington', alleged activities

pointment to the board of District
commissioners, where he would suc-
ceed Robert E. McLaughlin.
McLaughlin, whose term normsily
would have expired, said that he will
remain in office until a successor i.
sworn in.
Meanwhile, another reason why
Reeves may have asked that his nom-
ination be withdrawn was disclosed
by Sen. J. Glenn Beall, a Republican
member of the committee which held
bearlnga on Reeves' qualifications.
Beall said that he was interested
in, among other things, a report that
Reeves had approached Milton B.

that Reeves' new home was

to aktiiify District tax liens. Iu both

Beeves well said that Reeves had "one
ke against him—he was poor."
loader, who would not permit
use of his name, said that desirfte a
▼erjr unrewarding law practice,
Reeres. because of his political activi-
ty* felt that "he had to maintain a
front*1 that he could not afford—and
cardassly and unwisely let tax and
other obligations slide.
Tk* source said that with Reeves'
appointment to the White House staff
fire months ago, he was assured a
good income—but felt that he had to
maintain an even more imposing
"front."
Tb. source said the result was that
Kmtcs never did get completely out
of difficulty.
But. the source had no doubt of
Rene.'' honesty.
It was learned thnt members of
th. White House staff conferred on
th. Beeves situation after bis with-
drawal was announced, with Roy
Wilkins. executive secretary of the
NAACP.
What the staff members were con-
wa. that the situation

the possibility of a hostfle reaction.
But the concensus, in which Wil-
kins was said to have joined, was that
the nomination had to be withdrawn.
Wllkint could not be reached for com-
ment.
One politically experienced member
of the District Democratic committee
said that he believed Reeves' political
influence had been "nullified/* *tle-
