Special Prosecutor E. E. Andrews shook a sheaf of Indictments charging officers here with taking bribes and said today, "that only a beginning, we're going to yank out graft by the roots." In the packet were true bills against six former Fulton county (Atlanta) deputy sheriffs, 11 Atlanta policemen, a convict camp clerk and the clerk's helper the result of hard labor since last fall. "So far," said Andrews, "this graft probe has Involved most liquor 'protection' cases, but we're going into every line of vice before we stop. We've got the lever we needed to work with and.

the funny part Is that it came out of a routine divorce case." C.LSARRAZIN, 51, DIES AFTER LONG ILLNESS Services for Well Known Shreveporter to Be Held Today Charles L.

Party leaders under Konrad Hen lein, the Sudeten Fuehrer, said they would not negotiate "under the ex isting unconstitutional situation" in which Czech troops were stationed in Sudeten regions during the election crisis. Among the 1,500 municipalities voting today only 48 were predom inantly German. Four of these In western Czechoslovakia were classed as cities. Siuletens Increase Sent The Sudctens Increased their mu nicipal parliament seats from 69 to 105 in the four cities while the Communists dropped from 14 to five and the United German Democratic party non-Nazi drepped from 28 to 18. In cities predominantly Czech notably Praha gains of from 15 to 20 per cent were registered by the Czech National Socialist party, the group slightly left of center to which President Eduard Benes belonged before becoming chief executive.

It polled 142,000 votes as compared with 107,000 In 1931, and emerged the strongest party. Cbmmunlsts were next with 89,000 votes. Extreme rightist parties lost heavily. Second Elections Set Though a second series of muncl- pal elections will be held next Sun day, Including a larger group of Ger manic towns, today's results were in terpreted as showing the general trend within the little mid -European nation, half surrounded by powerful Germany and stirred by the clamor of a 3,500,000 German minority for self-government and closer relations with Berlin. The Impression was increasingly prevalent in Praha that hopes of peaco were based chiefly on parleys London, Paris and Berlin, where the nation's fate was under constant anxious discussion, rather than on municipal election results or other developments within Czechoslovakia herself.

The defiant attitude of the Sudeten communique, however, increased pessimism that peace could be con cluded with Henlein's followers. It accused the Czech government throwing troops Into the Sudeten German regions "although there- was not the slightest evidence any revolt was in preparation there." "I'nconstltutlonal" Use of troops waa called unconsti tutional. This new refusal to arbitrate did nothing to allay tension that spread au turope capitals, arousing fear Nazi support of the German minoritv demands might provoke war. me elections passed quietly, with no repetition of disorders In which two Oermans were killed Friday night, but anxious Czechoslovakia particularly watched the frontier of Germany, whose fuehrer, Adolf Hitler, has proclaimed himself the protector all Germans even outside his nation. Government spokesmen, reiterating warning Czechoslovakia's boundaries would be defended with an iron determination against all odds, said tney saw a relaxation of tension since yesterday.

"This emergency will pass off peacefully," one official said. The cabinet's political committee discussed the situations of national defense and of the 3,500,000 Sudeten Germans claming for autonomy and other concessions.

Reliable sources recalled that Chamberlain promised In his historic commons pronouncement, mu Britain's action In a crisis would be determined "by his majesty's government of the day In accordance with principles laid down in the (League of Nations) covenant." It was the spirit of this declara tion which was behind firm reas surances believed to have been given to French Ambassador Charles Cor- bin by Halifax Just before the emergency cabinet meeting. Mted bv Camhon Shortly after Halifax reached his office in Whitehall today he was visited by Roger Cambon, counsellor of the French embassy. Sir John Simon, chancellor of the Exchequer, also conferred with Halifax before von Dirksen, the German envoy called.

Besides the foreign office, the Dominions, colonial and treasury offices were opened. Admiral Sir William James, deputy chief of the naval staff, conferred with Sir Warren Fisher, permenent secretary to the treasury. An air of tense mystery surrounded most of these goings-on. The fact) that Hitler's iron fist had not fallen eased worried diplomats here and in Paris. Although Czechoslovak regulars and reserves were ready on or near every border, today's elections came off In good order.

Henleln Silent The Sudeten German leader, Kon- rad Henlein, remained silent despite the martial thunder of Germany's controlled press. In Paris, a French spokesman expressed confidence the situation was "mostly noise." Competent French observers said France must decide the Democratic Entente's action when and if a zero hour comes and that Britain's own interests would force her to support France if France moblized In face of unprovoked aggression. The British embassy in Berlin acted promptly to quell the fears of British families in Germany, Instructing them It was "unnecessary" for any one to leave Germany. Crisis Itrlirvrd Waning Poland, which last night sought an explanation of Czechoslovak troop movements on her own frontier also reflected to general belief the crisis was waning. Hungary was annoyed by temporary losing of the Czechoslovak frontier In advance of the opening of the world eucharlstlc congress Wednes- ay in Budapest.

Praha authorities assured travelers that the Czechoslovak borders now were open to International traffic. American travelers entering Austrian Germany told, however, of vineyards the Czechoslovak side of the frontier that bristled with guns. On the German side of the border, movements of Hitler's giant army re mained the fuehrer's secret. Despite Berlin's assurances to the contrary, official Britain apparently was convinced that troop movements along the Czechoslovakian frontier had a dark potential meaning.

Frontier Strengthened Seventy thousand men one class of reserves and secondary reserves were called to the colors yesterday and the frontier strengthened after two Sudeten Germans were killed by border guards. These reserves, together with an un- disclosed number of technical troops and the army of 190,000 soldiers, gave the nation an estimated total ot nearly half a million men under arms While yesterday's partial mobiliza tion was described as primarily for maintaining public order especially In Sudeten German districts It was noted many tanks and other heavy motorized equipment rolled toward the border yesterday and today Authorities insisted the country's frontier had not been closed to traf flc that travelers could pass freely In every direction. Border authorities also were regu lating movements of Czechoslovak; citizens far more strictly than foreign tourists.

Diplomats Busy Government offices as well as for eign legations In Praha were staffed as for a week and diplomats were busy throughout the day keeping abreast of developments. Some observers pointed out that while official circles felt "the worst Is over at least for this weekend' the continuance of the troop move ments maintained an explosive situa tion which possibly could be turned Into a catastrophe by a single border It was admitted iranKiy in oinciat quarters that the country's soldiers were ready on or near all borders especially the German border. Anxiety Aroused International anxiety had been aroused by movements toward the I lzecnosiovas: a a a oi urriimu i troops. The cabinet last night was closeted with President Eduard Benes until midnight. Afterwards the cabinet I continued Its deliberations until dawn.

Foreign Minister Kamll Krofta meanwhile was visited by the British, French, German and Polish ministers and explained to them the purpose of calling out reserves. The Polish minister asked particularly about a concentration of Czech oslovak: troops on the Polish border.

Would Fight for Integrity There were few evidences of the reinforcing of the army In Praha.

Many thousands of automobiles and trucks were commandeered through' out the country yesterday but they headed toward border districts. In the capital Itself a few soldiers were seen and only occasionally a few army trucks loaded with sup plies. The conviction expressed In some circles was that Hitler knew full well the Czechoslovaks would fight to de fend the integrity of their boundaries and therefore he wold not precipi tate a conflict likely to Involve all Europe. So far as gudeten Germans are concerned, It was stated the Czechoslovak army could handle them.

Rome Fascists said Mussolini urged Hitler to use moderation in dealing with Sudeten-Czech Issue but refused speculate about whether II Duce would fight beside Germany If war resulted. Paris French government con sidered situation less tense despite Prague messages that although Czech government would not voluntarily resort to force it "will fight if a single German soldier crosses the border." The French seemed assured that Hitler could not count on Italian or Polish support if he decided Invade Czechoslovakia. Warsaw Britain, hearing of Polish troop movements along border, asks government to state Its attitude toward crisis and meets with polite re fusal.

IS SERMON TEXT AT PARKVIEW CHURCH "Behold your God," was the text the sermon by the Rev. A. T. Pll-green, pastor of the Parkview Baptist church, Sunday morning. The text, taken from the words of the prophets when they announced the coming of Christ, was to give Inspiration to those who are depressed life.

The lesson wasv to turn to religion and worship for guidance. Italian Paper Asks Naming of Aggressors Rome, May 22 (JP). The newspaper Voce D'ltalia today called upon United States Secretary of War Harry H. Woodring to ceajte generalities and "name names" in his references to aggressor nr. Hons.

The newspaper, edited by the Fai-clst editor, Vlrglnio Gayda, was prompted by Woodrlng'g speech In Boston yesterday in which he warned aggressors might be tempted by America's natural resources. "Evidently Warrior Woodring doesn't even disarm his speeches while rearming his country," La Vim D'ltalia said today. a British Cabinet Meets; France I.raffinns Her Pledge London, May 22 (A)-Tte entire British cabinet met for an hour today In an emergency session to put the whole weight of the government behind British-French moves to block a German march Into Czechoslovakia.

Anxiety Heightened Th tenor of informed statements following the cabinet meeting tend td nee more to heighten anxiety after a day of relaxation over the single, reassuring fact that Adolf Hitler had not struck yet. Britain dispatcher Instructions to Iter representatives In Germany and Ceechoslovakia to exert every effort toward peaceful settlement of a sit uatlon strained by formidable arrays of armed forces on either side of the German -Czechoslovak border. In Praha, Minister Basil C. New ton was told to impress on the Cze choslovak government the Importance of avoiding Incidents and of a step towara compromise with czechowo vakla's Nazis.

In Berlin, Ambassador Sir Neville Henderson, was asked to urge the need of patience and moderation In the German press. 22 Ministers Meet i All 22 ministers met at No. 10 Downing street at the call of Britain's aomber, gouty Prime Minister Cham berlaln; while Hundreds of thousands of Czechoslovaks stood armed and ready behind their border. Across Czechoslovakia, while the little but powerful democracy started a series of municipal elections, lay the shadow of HUler'i armed might. The elections were expected to gauge the political strength of Czechoslovakia's Nazi minority which the German fuehrer had promised to protect from "suffering." The tension in London, however, decreased hourly with the growing conviction that British-French "stop signs" had turned Hitler to a blood-leas course to get what he wants for Czechoslovakia's 3,500,000 Sudeten Germans.

Confers With Halifai Indications pointed toward an abrupt stiffening of Chamberlain's deal with dictators" policy and strong backing for France In telling Hitler to keep his army within Germany, Chamberlain hurried from his country estate, Chequers, to Downing street, after learning that Germany's poker-faced envoy, Dr. Herbert von Dirksen, had called at the foreign office. Chamberlain conferred with foreign Secretary Halifax and 8ir Robert Van-alttart. chief diplomatic adviser to the cabinet, after they had talked with Von Dirksen. Franre Reaffirms pledge Many persons believed Chamberlain already had told Hitler, through diplomats, that Oermany was trying to Intimidate Czechoslovakia with an Implied threat of armed Invasion and that Britain could not be counted out of any armed conflict that might ensue.

Prance, apparently sure of eventual British backing, already had reaffirmed her pledge to help Czecho-Slovakia to the utmost, under their mutual assistance pact If Hitler marched to the east. Brttaln-bound by no such treaty had refused the Czechoslovaks a Imllar prior pledge of immediate military aid, but Informed source, took pains to recall Chamberlain's statement la the house of commons Marsh 24. "IX war broke out it would be Impossible to say where It would end and what governments might become Involved. This is especially true in the case of two countries like Britian and France." Authoritatively It was emphasized and Halifax here and between Am-bassador Sir Neville Henderson and German Foreign Minister Joachim von Blbbentrop la Berlin still were aimed at peaceful solution of Czechoslovakia's minority trouble Britain already felt the had persuaded the Fraha government to go the limit in granting concessions to the Germanic minority. Groftraphlrallv Impossible' Britain did this because she feared France's chance of saving Czecho-Slovakia, even by force, might be geographically impossible and because she believed Czechoslovakia could not go on forever as a divided state.
