'FITE SPOKESMAN-REVIEW 20 Sunday, Oct. 20, 1946. WOODS BUNGLED HANGINGS, CLAIM Romance Ended 1 NEGRO POLITICO MENTAL PATIENT EX-MARINE REPORTED SLAIN, FOUND ALIVE LYNN, Oct. 19. The parents of a 20-year-old former marine, who was mistakenly identifie4 as a youth who had been shot to death in a stolen car in Arizona, were overjoyed when informed he had been located in California.

Police Lt. Asa Darsney quoted David Henry Eaton as saying he was quite confident from the moment he was notified that David Henry had been shot that it was a case of mistaken identiy. The elder Eaton's belief was confirmed when the body arrived here. The parents observed that it bore no resemblance to their son and lacked tattoo marks on the arm. Local police also determined that fingerprints did not match those of the young ex-marine.

Eaton said that he also was certain that his son was not involved in any way with the Kingman. car theft and that he would be able to clear himself of any suspicion. SHIP CHRISTMAS TREES. BEND, Oct. 19.

Scott, Negro candidate for coroner, was removed by relatives from the Atlanta jail early today for transfer to a Nashville, "mental institution," Police Chief M. Abmhornsby reported. The chief quoted a report of Capt. H. T.

Jenkins that Scott "was still very violent" when a brother and two other Negroes came for him after he had been held several hours at the request of members of his family. The 45-year-old Scott last night was "booked to hold on charges of disorderly conduct and demented," Hornsby said. Cornelius A. Scott, publisher of the Atlanta Daily World and brother of the Negro candidate, said, "Aurelius has been a sick man for some months." The publisher said a reservation was made by the family early yesterday In the Nashville sanatorium and that his brother agreed to go there. "However," Scott said, "when the time came he resisted and we had to call the police." Scott said he would ask Fulton county Ordinary (Clerk) Eugene Gunby to disqualify his brother as a candidate because "he does not meet the required two years' residence in Georgia." liu S.

North AMPEICUI Nrwspaper NUERNBERG, Oct. 17. (By WirelessiAllegations that the Nurnberg executions were badly bungled are being made here today. Although this had not been apparent to the observers watching the scaffold, an official medical inspection made below the platform is said to have revealed a shambles and made it unlikely that photographs of the corpses ever will be British doubts as to the arrangements for the hangings were expressed immediately after it became known that the services of their veteran hangman, 80-year-old Henry Pierrepoint, had been rejected in favor of the American, MiSgt. John C.

Woods, whom they understood to be not a professional prison executioner. Jodi's Nose Broken. Pierrepoint bragR that he never breaks, marks or mars a body when he hangs a man. He insists on seeing the man he is about to hang, checks visually his height and weight to make sure he has not miscalculated the drop, and is credited with never making a mistake and with always insuring instantaneous death. In these circumstances, professional crime reporters here have watched with interest the first major effort of the American hangman.

His result is not attributed to negligence or inhumanity though the victims did not merit any special considerationhut to inexperience and lack of discrimination between the weights and bulks of 11 different men. Cecil Cat ling, correspondent of the London Star, sent the following dispatch to his paper today: "As 3odl fell, his nose struck the edge of the trap and was broken. The whole of Stretcher's face was caught on the edge of the trap and was unrecognizable. As all the executed men were cut down, blood was coming from their mouths and I ears. Miscalculation in the length i of the drop was the cause of this.

Shambles in Pit. 'While everything seemed precise and businesslike on the scaffold, it was like a shambles in the pit below, I was told. Each of the dead men was photographed directly after death for the official records. I am told that these are too horrible ever to he published. "The complaint is that the trap was not built to the proper specifications.

Some of the drops were too, short and the victims were strangled. Death in some cases took nearly a quarter of an hour." Another cause of international friction has developed as a result of the unsavory ending of the trials. Although full reports on the hangings have been released to the press here by the American and British members of the interaational delegation of observers, the reports of the Russians have not been given to us.
