V Atlanta, Feb. 5.—Clinton S. <^mes who rose from ex-convict to a position of prominence as treasurer of the Southern Baptist Home Mission board and decamp^ after nine years, leav ing an alieged shortage of nearly a million dollars, pleaded guilty to em bezzlement here today and was given an indeterminate sentence of five to seven years. His pliea was accepted on recommen dation of beard officials who said Carnes had turned over all his re- ■ammaaawje r ^atititsiSsaMgddmP save the state long, expensive trial and that justice would be served by the sentence due to Kis age. It was added that Carnes had agreed to aid in untangling the board’s accounts, ^ whkh auditors have been working since he disappeared last summer. Only one of the 20 indictments re- ’ turnet against him—that, charging misappropriation of $80,000—figured in the proceedings. The state an nounced that the others would be dis missed if the 51-year-old former lay man did not seek a pardon or parole before the expiration of his minimum sentence. Carnes, who had been confined to the county jail since his arrest last September in Winnipeg, Marutoba, ap peared in court in custody of deputy sheriffs, accompanied by his attor neys and younger son, Robert. He made no statement and his only par ticipation in the brief formalities was to sign the indictment. .After a hastily empanelled jury had returned a formal consent verdict of guilty, Judge Virlyn B. Moore passed sentence \yth the statement that the sentence ?§eemed “inadequate,” but that,he assented in the solicitor-gen eral’s recommendation “in view of the circumstances and the recommenda tions of the home mission board, which is most directly involved finan cially.” Thus was written a closing chapter in a meteoric career that rivalled that of a fiction thriller. It was as an obscure auditor that Carnes first became affiliated with the home mission board. A year later, in 1919, his ability as an accountant and' a business acument described as inherent in him since early youth, won for him the post of treasurer. Then he joined the Capital Avenue Baptist church, became chairman of its finance and building committees, was invited to membership in several clubs and established a home in the fashionable Druid Hills section. He, b;- came the head of several private busi ness enterprises here and generally was 'regarded as a shrewd business man and successful financier. On August 15, last, he mysteriously (lisappcarid and 10 days later a search was i-nstituted for him by his church colleagues and family in the belief he had met with foul play. When days passed without a trace of him auditors "were set to work on his book.s. Cq-TncidelTt~w"ith the~dTscbvery'T)t“ a shortage placed by the examiners at $9J5,000; it developed that Came.s had a record of two prison sentences, one of which he served, in a Missouri pris on and the other in the fe<leral peni tentiary here for using the mails to defraud, some five years before he became- connected with the mission board. A natiun-v ide search of more than a month ended in the arrest of ('arnes on September 28 in Winnipeg, where he had assumed a fictitious name and launched plans for an ambitious busi ness enterjirist. With the exception of a small amount of cash and .securitiesi the authorities found none of the sup posed enlbezzled funis in his posses sion. Before his return here, Carnes’ wife and two s(.ns had turned over to re ceivers all of his personal and real property, out of which mission board officials told the court today the board would realize approximately $250,000. The board was r.presented at the arraignment today by A. G. Powell, attorney,-and Dr. L. R. Christie, presi dent of the mission board. In a wTitten statement submitted to Judge Moore, Dr. Christie said the board “does not palliate nor condone in any degree Mr. Carnes’ offense, but we are pei^uaded. that swift, certain and prompt sentence and punishment is the vital thing rather than carrying ~on the trial of a number of criminal cases against Mr^-Carnes.” Carnes was led hark to jail to await a decision from the state prison com mission w^hether he will be assigned to a county chaingang or serve his term in the prison farm at Milledge- ville.
