Representatives from five state blind organizations are included on the council.

The meeting is the first for the council since its inception. Sun Will Shine If Axiom Wrong Forecast Right Prognostications late night gave August 20 a good chance of overcoming tremendous odds and turning out to be a fine day. According to an old axiom, if the sun sets red, or if it sets in grey, the next day will be rainy. Yesterday's sun sank like a big red balloon in a grey haze in the west, and the weatherman's early prediction for today was partly cloudy, possible showers in the morning, rather cool and clearing in the afternoon. A cold front moving this way was expected to bring rain, but at last report the weatherman had sent the cold front on to somewhere else, had scratched the off today's weather menu, and prescribed temperatures around a pleasant 75.

No rainfall was recorded at Berry field yesterday. Friday's total was .70 inches, most of which fell in the downpour around 6 p.m. Total rainfall for August so far is 4.24 inches, 1.97 inches above normal for this time of the month.

By ALBERT CASON backplate Number 592. Serial num- gets identifications before mer- How to detect a bogus bill is becoming a question of growing importance in Nashville, treasury department agents say. Secret service men issued a plea for more rigid inspection of money in circulation here yesterday, after finding seven $10 bills and a $20 bill which were good enough imitations to fool most merchants. The plea was directed to those who handle money, such as store clerks and cashiers, for they are the ones most likely to help catch counterfeiters. Favorites Are $10 Bills Louis D.

Socey, special agent in charge the Tennessee quarters of the secret service, gave the following tips on how to identify counterfeit money. To begin with, the most numerous denomination found is the $10 note. Contrary to the most popular belief concerning counterfeits, you cannot tell if a bill is good or bad by rubbing. the green ink off on Most people seem to think that the ink will not rub off of a phony bill, but it will. Genuine bills and counterfeits are be made the same way--by printing them off engraving plates in a manner similar to the way newspaper pictures are printed.

So the ink will rub off both good and bad bills. Watch All Tips Perhaps the easiest and surest way to detect a counterfeit is to keep the latest descriptive material available from your local secret service office near at hand. This includes: Whether the spurious bills being circulated in your section are United States notes, silver certificates or federal reserve notes, their check letters, faceplate and backplate numbers, seals, and defects in engraving. For instance the latest $10 bills found here are federal reserve of Minneapolis, a check notes on the reserve bank federal, letter faceplate Number 11, and backplate Number 1219. The federal reserve seal bears the letter ninth letter of the alphabet which designates the ninth federal reserve district.

(There are 12 districts in the nation, so various seals bear letters from A through L). $20 Markings The $20 note is on the same federal reserve bank, has a series designation of 1935 check letter of faceplate Number 11, and Woman Faces Murder Charge Welder Also Held On Identical Count In Callan 'Drowning' WAVERLY, new developments, are trail of expected clues by that tomay have broken one of this area's most sensational murder cases in recent years. Officers yesterday placed a murder charge against the attractive wife of a Milan arsenal worker, the second such charge to grow out of a nearly three weeks investigation into what appeared to be the accidental drowning of Dan Callan, 38, of Humboldt. Callan's found floating in Kentucky lake, near the Highwas, way 70 bridge, on the afternoon of July 27. State highway patrolmen, in Humboldt late Friday night, arrested a 35-year-old welder, Elmer H.

Pillow, and charged him with murder. Pillow was questioned in Huntingdon' by Capt. R. H. Fletcher, chief of the Eighth division of the highway patrol, and was being held in the Carroll county jail.

The Milan woman, Mrs. Evelyn Holder, was arrested Thursday after investigating officers learned she was Callan's companion for at least three days before his disappearance. On the night of her arrest at Humboldt, Mrs. Holder was with Pillow, officers said. Appears Indifferent In jail here yesterday, Humphreys, county, appeared indifferent when told that the charge of suspicion of murder had been changed to murder.

She was quoted by Cpl. William Clary of the state highway patrol as saying: "What do you want me to do? Go to sleep?" The trail of evidence led to West Tennessee again yesterday, where and other officers were understood to have worked most of the day. Additional Evidence Fletcher said in Humboldt last night that there additional evidence other persons are involved in the crime. "We have talked to some of these persons, and there are others we have not talked to as yet," he said. Officers credited Brents Mathis, an employe of the Newspaper Printing with assisting the long, secret investigation which led to the two arrests.

Mathis, a member of the coroner's jury, was suspicious of circ*mstances surrounding the findling of Callan's body and urged a further investigation after Callan's body was buried at Humboldt. Bloodstained Mat Mounting evidence included bloodstained bedclothing in the room at a tourist court where MAs. Holder told officers she stayed with Callan July 18-19; blood stains on a mat in the red convertible automobile registered to Pillow; and the autopsy report of Dr. W. J.

Core that Callan's death was due to foul play, not drowning. Dr. Core's report Friday was to the effect that Callan died from a blow the head and was dead when his body was placed in the water. Officers theorized the body may have been crammed inside a small space for several days before it was finally placed in the lake. Evidence of blood stains found on a railing indicate the possibility the body was thrown from the Highway 70 bridge at New Johnsonville.

Also taking part in the investigation were Sheriff Ray Lewis of Camden, Patrolmen L. Mullins of Camden, and John Varden of Huntingdon. Spy Suspect Held in Jail; No Visitors bers vary. The various federal reserve districts try to keep the bills issued on them within the district, so unless you do business with many tourists, the letter in the federal reserve seal should be the first thing to catch your eye if it is not one belonging to your district. Nashville and Tennessee are in Atlanta district, which is the sixth, carrying the letter Of course, it doesn't mean a bill is bad if it doesn't bear the letter of your district, but secret service men say a lot more counterfelters would be caught if receivers would let this be a signal for a closer inspection of the bill and the passer, because quite often bogus bills bear the seal of another district.

Rarely does the flagpole atop the treasury building touch the roof if the bill is counterfeit. Rarely do the portraits have a life-like appearance, but look flat and dead. Too Much Contrast Fine details of engraving, such as hand rails, steps and fencing, are often poorly shown missing, and the paper bogus bills printed on rarely contains silk fibers. How-ing ever, attempts are generally made to imitate the fibers by drawing fine lines. Often the bills have an unnatural cast on one or both sides.

For instance the one being circulated now has an abnormally dark green cast on the back, giving an appearance known in photography as excessive contrast. Most counterfeits will have some blunt points surrounding the green seal to the right of the portrait. These can be detected with the naked eye or with an ordinary magnifying glass found in the average home. Nearly all counterfeits have individual flaws. The secret serviceltion chants as fast as possible.

Knowing this, a particularly skilled counterfeiter, who was arrested near St. Louis recently after a four-year hunt, would change his engraving plates every week and thereby put out a new bill before identifying information could be sent to merchants. But he made the mistake of laying a swath of the bills across Tennessee where secret service men have done a better than average job of educating the public to bad money. At Jackson, a woman noticed he had a California license on his car. She got suspicious, took his number and sent it to the secret service with $10 bill he gave her.

That was the beginning of a trail that led him to prison. He is held on default of $25,000 bond. Although he was one of the most skillful operators in history, his counterfeiting career stands as a monumental example of the old saying that crime doesn't pay. He made $14,000 worth of the near-perfect $10 bills in four years, but realized a net profit of only $2,000. The rest went in expenses of mak- and passing the money.

He is almost certain to get 15 to 25 years in prison. Secret service men point out that, for various reasons, Negroes have moved into the counterfeiting business in the South only since the last war. As passers they now approximately equal white people. It was an extremely rare occurrence to find a Negro committing the crime before the war. If you get a bill you think is don't give it back to the passer.

Detain him with an excuse if possible, avoid an argument, call police and the nearest secret service office, write down his descripand license number, if any.

NUMBER 3 A skeleton drawing of a $10 bill points out some of the identifying marks to keep in mind when checking notes for counterfeits. LAREDO, Texas -(P)- Morton Sobell, American radar expert charged with telling defense secrets to Russia, stayed under close watch in jail yesterday while his wife and two children flew home to New York. Sobell was permitted no visitors. Since.

he was lodged in the Webb county jail early Friday, he has been visited only his wife and a newspaper photographer who was allowed to take a picture a yesterday. Sobell wouldn't do any talking. Mrs. Sobell took her husband fresh clothing and cigarets. He was spruced up in the new clothes yesterday-a decided contrast to the rumpled, unshaven man who was hustled into Laredo from Mexico cover of darkness.

Sobell, 33, of Russian descent, ran to Mexico when the FBI began seizing suspects in the Klaus Fuchs spy ring. Argument at Grill Ends In Stabbing A West Nashville man was in serious condition at General hospital last night from stab wounds which police said were inflicted during an altercation at the Richland grill, 5019 Charlotte ave. George McKenzie, 28, 5704 Tennessee the victim, suffered a punctured lung and lacerations of chest during an argument, officers said. Police were seeking Lewis Patton. 23, of Indiana ave.

Officers said they were told that while McKenzie was sitting at a table with Patton's sister, he (Patton) walked up and said, "Don't roll up your sleeves to me, George." Officers said the two "had words," and that as they walked toward the door, Patton allegedly pulled a knife and stabbed MeKenzie.
