The French Cabinet directed For- eign Minister Robert Schuman not to sign either the peace contract or the European army treaty until French conditions have been agreed to. These conditions, not made public officially, were under- stood to include: 1. A stronger guarantee against Germany pulling out of the Eu- ropean Defense Community (EDC) at some future date. 2. A revision of financial ar- rangements between the Allies and the West German government. 3. A promise that the special French problems outside Europe mainly in Indochinabe given con- sideration pronto by the United States and Britain. | 4. A promise by Britain and the ‘United States not to interfere by demanding a more liberal French Tunisia and Morocco. 5. Continued Allied controls on German industrial production. The calendar which brought the Big Three foreign ministers here this week-end called for signing the peace contract in Bonn Monday and the EDC treaty in Paris Tues- their differences, the Big Three ealled in Chancellor Konrad Aden- auet, scheduled with him earlier had had to be postponed because of the argument.

But as late as 1924—a parcel of land on Duval Street exchanged hands or ownership for the sum of one dollar! Of course there’s just a tiny catch in this recorded sale or gift-- but here’s the whole story as it came up this week. As a picture in Friday's Citizen showed—most of the present dir rectors of the San Carlos were sit- ting around a council table look- ing for a letter. The Citizen report» er who happened in on this scene wanted to know what the letter was about. It seems that in 1924 when the descendents of the Cuban exiles and emigrees decided to build a cultural center here in Key West, a group of them, some of the foun- ders of San Carlos, bought this par- cel of land in the 500 block on Du- val street, and gave it by retroac+ | tive deed and the sum of one dollar | to the Government of Cuba, in re- turn for Cuba’s help in helping to maintain and foster the cultural aims and interests of the Club San Carlos, After much searching-- the im- portant: decument was finally dis- covered along with many other in- teresting items among the old files of the Club San Carlos, It has now been carefully .pho- tostated, witnessed and put in a safe place where it can be held readily accessible. The occasion Sawyer for the search for this important = | and unusual document was the re- sult of an article which appeared in the Cuban newspaper, El] Mun- do on Thursday which questioned the ownership of the San Carlos property.
