Tyler Pleads Innocent To Charges In WWII Prisoner Case

FT. BRAGG N C Set John L Tyler charged with aiding the enemy while a prisoner of war in Korea pleaded innocent to all charges and specifications. A 25 year old Moundsville West Virginia soldier is accused of informing on fellow prisoners writing pro Communist articles asking prisoners to sign peace petitions and attempting to convert them to communism. First witness John B Allen a truck driver from Berkeley California testified Tyler threatened him and he was placed in solitary confinement. Allen claimed he lied about joining the Ku Klux Klan to avoid trouble. A University of Iowa student Raymond L Gray said he was solitary for two months then confessed to being a KKK member. Tyler is charged with informing on Gray and Allen. The trial follows motions to reorganize cases after some charges were dismissed. Tyler was a prisoner of the Chinese Communists from June 1951 to August 1953. He belongs to a Ft. Bragg chemical company.
