First area to be developed by the Kamien corporation will be the four blocks adjoining Mac- ros development to the north. an assault and battery charge, sworn out against Hernandez and Padron. The answer was “N sir”. Desmond was cleared of any involvement in the case. The JP then permitted Kelly to withdraw his charges with Kelly paying the cost of court. Kelly after first swearing out the warrants, had reversed him- jself and asked that they be withdrawn. Since the charge was a felony, it could not be dropped until the court found the defen- inating said litigation.” Prior to Hamlin’s decision, |Cleare had reviewed the case in detail. The County Solicitor had stated that he placed Leon Kelly junder oath, and that Kelly had |said that he was promised noth- ing, nor was he intimidated, but |that he wanted to drop the char- | ges. Kelly further admitted that | Desmond did not strike him. The , {fight was between Padron andj {Kelly, and when Hernandez saw |Padron getting the worst of it, |he went to Padron’s aid. | Kelly suffered a bump on | the head from the fracas, but had no serious injuries, stitch- es, or any cuts. Albert Roberts, under oath, had told Cleare that the argu- ment between Kelly and Padron arted inside his offices at the corner of Duval and Olivia faith for the purpose of term- | before a subcommittee of the, Senate Foreign Relations Com- | mittee. He is expected to testify Tuesday in Washington. Although he declined to an: | wer questions immediately, Lat more did lash out at his aceuse! McCarthy. The Wisconsin. law- maker has described Lattimore as what he called “The top Sov- iet agent” in the State Depart- j ment. Lattimore described Mc- Carthy as w he termed “A base and miserable creature.” Lattimore said he had “unut- terable contempt” for McCarthy. has He said he was glad to be back | lin the United States where he }- could get a fair hearing.
