A Dutch- man named Cornelius van Dreb- Del nailed together a wooden, wa- tertight hull, propelled with oars, in 1620. The Confederacy experi- mented with a primitive type of submersible during the War Be- tween the States. But the first practical submarine capable of diving and surfacing satisfactorily and maneuvering | easily, was the Holland. The United States Navy liked that pro- totype and ordered more. The Holland submarine, a tiny and relatively crude affair, evolved finally into the fleet type subma- rines of World War I, then into the streamlined “Guppy” Class with Snorkel breathers and, within Tecent months, into the new Tang Class craft. But all of them, even the Tang Class, have never been true sub marines. They could not stay deep under water for long periods nor move at high speed At below-Snorkel depth, today’s submarine must cut aff its power ful diesel engines and rely on elec. tric motors driven from batteries. ‘They can stay down only a matter of hours and their speed is lim Red.

A buclear reactur (an atomic cial distress or unable to afford) specialized Truman Tells Of New Engine For Submarines GROTON, Conn. — President Truman disclosed today that a “full-size, working” atomic engine for submarines is almost com- pleted for test runs. The President gave out the news in an address prepared for de- livery at the ceremonies here in cénnection with the laying of the keel for the nation’s first atomic powered submersible, the Nautilus. At the same time he hit out hard at what he called dangerous efforts to sell the American people on the idea that there is “some cut-rate, bargain-counter route” to national security, And he swung a punch at Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, one of the front-running candidates for the Republican presidential nomina- tion. He said he had heard the other day that “somebody” was talking about a 40 billion dollar tax cut. ‘That was an obvious reference to a statement attributed to the gen- eral. Mr. Truman commented that “politics does funny things to peo- |ple who are seeking office and criticized “passion for economy regardless of the consequences” which he said is rampant in Con- gress. With reference to the 40 billion dollar tax cut idea, he said: “That would leave us with only about half enough money to sup- port our forces even if we didn’t spend a penny for anything else.” ‘Hot Weather By The Associated Press day.

They explained to twenty-six lo- cal people the difficulties and hard- ships that had been brought into their lives because they suffered from a disease now recognized by medical science as “alcoholism” Each pointed out-that the pathway of his, (or her), life was rapidly leading to one of three places— the graveyard, insane asylum, or jail. It was through the therapy of- fered by Alcoholics Anonymous and its 12 Steps that they were able to rebuild their life and once more enjoy normal, social inter- course. The visiting chairman who is as- sociated with a Coral Gables group explained that medical men have for the most part been unsuccessful in their treatment of alcoholics. The same thing aplies to thevlogi- ans. Alcoholic Anonymous works on the principles of combining the help of doctors and churches as well as the group therapy of com- radeship, Theory of AA stresses the fact that nearly all alcoholics are emo- tionally immature. They are mis- understood by on-lookers as being weak-willed individuals when actu- all they are probably the stub- bornness creatures on earth. The trouble being that they do not know what to be stubborn about. Alcoholics Anonymous says that only a previous drunk knows how to talk to a person drowning his “sorrows” in’ whiskey. The mem- bers ‘keep themselves in readiness for a call of help at any time that someone expresses an honest de- sire to quit drinking. Their expe- rience shows that the call must come from the person himself though, and not from members of his family, his boss, etc. Pressure from the latter people merely in- creases the sick person‘s resist- ance. : Though AA is non-denomination and has no formal organization or dues, members say that it is the most expensive club in the world to join. It usually takes a member years of heavy drinking and suf- fering before he is willing to ad- mit that alcohol has him beat, Drug Charge Draws Aguiar Probation Federal Judge Gives Key West Man 2 Years In Penitentiary But Puts Him On Probation Justo Aguiar, 55, 1217 Knowles Lane, was sentenced to two years in the Federal penitentiary, but placed on probation by Federal Judge Holland on two counts of transfering marijuana unlawfully, his attorney Tom 0. Watkins told The Citizen today. Aguiar had been judged guilty several months ago by the Feder-! al court on two counts. Yesterday | Watkins took his client to Miami} for sentencing. The Judge gave} Aguiar a severe reprimand, fined | him $250, sentenced him two years, and then put him on probation, Aguiar had been out on $500 bond, Watkins said. The counts against Aguiar were that on December 15 he was a transferree of marijuana and con-| trary to law did not pay a tax) on the 431 grains of bulk marijua-; na. The second count against Aguiar | was that he “unlawfully and know-/! ingly” transferred a quantity of marijuana to Tennessee Rudd, U./ S. narcotic agent. “Darn this high-powered gas!” We're not stretching things when we say that our ges hes that added power for quick-starting. U.S. No. I Terminal Service Station Key West. Fla, Phone 1512 400 Homeless ST. URBAIN, Quebec (# — A fire wiped out three-quarters of this Eastern Quebee village and left more than 400 persons home- less before volunteer fighters brought it under control Friday night. No serious casualties were re- ported, however. Relief supplies were sent in an army truck con- voy from Quebec City, 65 miles to the west. The fire, which started in a res- taurant, whipped through 50 build- ings, including stores, homes, hotel and a bank. A shift in wind saved the parish church and a convent. No Default WASHINGTON (# — Finland has sent the United States $142,127.18 to retain its record of being the only country never to default. on payment of a debt for American aid after World War I. The Treasury said Friday $21,- 132.18 went to reduce the debt— originally about $8,400,000—to its present $7,442,304.54. The other ‘$120,995 was for interest. The U.S., as a reward to Finland, spends the money from that coun- try on educational projects carried on between America and the Finns, KW IMPROVEMENT (Continued From Page Qne) another site, the company would have the right to buy it back at $150,000. Any facilities erected by the county would have to be de- molished in six months. Commis- sioners objected to this latter pro- vision Tuesday. Commissioner Frank Bentley who was not present yesterday and Commisioner Clarence Higgs were silent, as were the other two Com- missioners present, Joe Allen and Chairman Gerald Saunders. Sawyer, only, talked on the air- port. He said: “The company doesn’t want to have to buy $250,000 in improve- ments along with the $150,000 in land should the County abandon the airport.” By the same token the County Commissioners do not want to in- vest $250,000 or even $70,000 in buildings at Meacham if they in- tend to abandon the field at some later date upon finding a new site, Sawyer said. When Robineau makes his pro- posal, the company and the county will get together on the maximum price the company will pay for im- provements put on the airport by the county, Meanwhile, Chairman Saunders of the Commission had made offi- cial application for the CAA grant of $75,000 which will pay for half the cost of the 156 acre airport. The County has $60,000 earmarked for the purchase, and will pay the re- maining $15,000 to the company in two annual installaments, Stock Island Roads Work on surveying and building Stock Island roads will go ahead, it was unanimously voted, The Commissioners had been told that old stakes in the land precluded completion of the road. Investigation and discussion with land owners has resulted in a green light for carrying out the job. When Aztec corn crops were growing, human beings were sacrificed periodically in the be- lief that the sacrifices stimulated the development of the crop. Maturity a Of Emotions Discussed AA Meeting Hears Dr. Herz Read Paper; South Miami AA Group Presents Four Speakers Dr. Ralph Herz.read a paper to the local group: of Alcoholics Anonymous: last night following four speeches by members of the South Miami group. Subject of the address was “‘Are ‘You Emotionally Mature?” Quoting a leading psychiatrist who has specialized in the field of alcoholism and its problems, Dr. Herz said Dr. Edward F. Strecker, describes emotional maturity as follows: “It is the ability to stick to a job and to struggle through until it is finished; to endure unpleasantness, discomfort and frustrations; to give more than is asked for or re- quired; to size thing’ up and make independent decisions; to work with authority and to cooperate with others; to defer to time, other Persons and to circumstances. Emotional maturity is the great- est cause of many troubles today, Most neurotics, alcoholics and maladjusted people are emotionally immature. Imma- turity is a major cause of divorces, criminality, drug addiction and of dissident political elements. Emo- tional immaturity, can be blamed for failure in various important life activities, in many cases” Dr. E. F. Strecker, A person can get a feel of his emotional maturity by answering the following check list it was said: “Are you a conformist? Can you work,in team style? Do you learn by the trial and error method? Are you plastic? Can you be a follower as well as a leader? Are you always able to fit in? Can you take it? (without being knocked out of stride?) Can you hold your tongue and temper? Do you carry on your responsi- bilities even in the face of person- al losses and tragedies? Would you rather turn the other cheek than want an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth? Do you avoid allowing personal hate, anger, revenge and other like emotions to control your thinking, speaking and behavior? Are you able to play the game of life by the other people’s rules also?” Apply To Wed William Stevenson, 30, BOQ, Seaplane Base and Verdell Livings- ton, 26, B-1, Fort Village have ap- plied for a marriage license at the office of County Judge Ray- mond R.

The Senate already has told President Truman to use the Taft- Hartley Act—an act he dislikes— to get the industry rolling again. Production thus could be assured for 80 days through an injunction if the union obeyed a court order and returned to work, tinue their shutdown of most of the nation’s steel industry “until our cause is won.” The» Steelworkers’ Executive Board and Wage-Policy Committee —called into extraordinary session by President Philip Murray—is- sued a sharply worded statement after hearing Murray review latest developments in the 13-day-old strike. The statement said there will be no retreat in the union’s stand. That calls for a settlement em- bodying all recommendations of the Wage Stabilization Board. The WSB recommended the industry grant Murray a union shop and a substantial wage boost. The union took cognizance that the strike is shutting off vitally needed steel for the war in Korea. It promised all possible help to produce such steel. Union, com- pany and government officials now are trying to work out a plan to resume production in some plants. ; Pointing to the WSB recommen- dations, the statement declared: “We .. . believe it to be essential that the Congress of the United States require the steel industry to manifest its loyalty to our coun- try by adherence to the require- ments of our nation by a whole- some acceptance of the recommen- dations of the Wage Stabilization Board.” The WSB, in addition to recom- | provides that all workers must belong to the union—suggested a 26-cent an hour wage hike. The men now average about. $1.95 an hour. There is absolutely no indication of a resumption of negotiations which broke off a few days ago after they had been started up again at the behest of President Truman. Also there is no indication that President Truman will take further action immediately. The President, already rebuffed by.
