Ran-} ey, said that the flight went | off without either over water or over land, More than 1,000 of the 4,000 miles in the flight were over the sea, any mishaps According to Raney this is the first international flight of a private plane club over water. | He said it will probably be the forerunner of many such jaunts. The fliers went as far as the Virgin Islands, stopping at var- ious islands enroute. Their trip to Key West from Havana, their | last Caribbean stop, was delayed | two days by the unseasonable | winds on Monday and Tuesday. The purpose of the trip, said Raney was to bring about bet- ter understanding between the United States and the neigh- boring islands. He said he felt they were successful in this at- : tempt. Each pilot flew at his | a Sas own expense in his privately owned plane. Flight leader Raney flies a Beech Bonanza plane which can go 175 miles per hour.

PALACE THEATRE Seas aS Administration In Foreign-Aid an initial victory, President Tru- man and his foreign-aid program lieutenants worked today to build a rampart of Senate votes against any further cutting of its billions. Administration baekers beat off a move to clip 400 million dollars from the $6,900,000,000 total by a 7 to 6 vote late Wednesday in the Senate Armed Services Committee. Thus the bill—alreedy trimmed a billion from the President’s original request for $7,900,000,000— returns to the Senate in the same form it went to the committee last Monday. There was plenty talk of a floor fight over further reductions, to possibly as low as an even six billions. President Truman, in a serious- voiced discussion of foreign-aid and military funds Wednesday night, said: “We are winning the cold war, and I fear very much that if the Congress continues to follow the attitude that it has on these im- mensely important appropriation bills, we may lose it, and then— these defense appropriations will look like a drop in the bucket.” Mr. Truman, who spoke at the _ | annual dinner of the Civil Air Pa- | trol (CAP), was followed by Air | Force ‘House Speaker Rayburn. Secretary Finletter and Finletter told CAP members and their congressmen guests the de- fense program “simply will not Block Any Further Cuts WASHINGTON (# — Fresh from ¥- Sub Fleet Men | Interesting Honored Tonight | the earth mak Strives To Notes annual 5 r } circuit imate- | By USO Dance lly 365% ¢ * T t's dance on the USO} Funds A patio will be a Ship’s of pirate Dance honoring the arine i border- fleet stationed here in Key We yy me new > past week to ou su imp are bes the ‘ated. bear cutting.” Rayburn said he was no alarmist but added: “I am not in a mood to be timid with my money or anybody else’s | when it means the defense of this | country.” setting for the 2 b But at the Capitol, Sen Long | music. wil ee pon un Gus (D.-La.), who sponsored the 400 and his combo.
