announced that police had
picked up a suspect in the twin
bombings in Jacksonville last
week. The suspect, James Lilley,
29, was being questioned after
dynamite had been found in his
car, a green Pontiac which was
similar to the car seen driving
away from the scene of the
Jewish Center explosion.
Pooling the various rewards
offered by municipalities and
individuals in the cities where
six Jewish centers or syna-
gogues had either been bombed
or threatened by dynamite
which did not explode, the con-
ference was able to offer $55,700
for information leading to the
arrest and conviction of the
terrorists. Police believe that
the manufacture of the dyna-
mite bombs is the work of one
man and that at most he has
the support of only a small mun-
ber of local hatemongers in the
wide distribution of the ex-
plosives.
Present at the parley were
officials from Jacksonville,
Nashville, Montgomery, Ala.,
Savannah, Ga., Miami and West
Palm Beach, Fla., Biloxi, Miss.,
Birmingham, Ala., and 19 other
cities whose officials desired no
publicity concerning their par-
ticipation. The advisory group
formed at the meeting was seen
as having some of the functions
which the FBI might have had
in the case, had not Attorney
General William Rogers ruled
that no Federal issue was
involved.

refused to send a Federal at-
torney to the conference,
