Page 10 160 NATO Ship THE KEY WEST CITIZEN s Maneuver Off Scandinavia Next Week; Warn Reds West Can OSLO, Norway #—More than 160 Allied warships including eight | big aircraft carriers begin ma- neuvers off Scandinavia next week, warning Russia that the West is ready to defend the seas even up @ the Arctic Circle. Officially known as ‘Operation Mainbrace,” the 13-day war games will be one of the largest displays of Allied naval might since World war I. The ostensible purpose of the vast, 8-nation exercise is to give the participating navies an oppor- tunity to co-operate in maneuvers with their North Atlantic Treaty partners, ; Military sources said, however, that the games could have two highly important psychological ef- fects: 1. Demonstrate to Norway, Den- mark, and little Iceland that they can and will be defended, that they are an integral part of NATO. 2. Serve notice on Soviet Russia that the Western Allies are fully prepared to resist attack any- where, even in Arctic waters. The NATO task force will as- semble off Scotland Monday and Tuesday. The actual maneuvers will begin Saturday, Sept. 13, un- der the command of Britain’s Adm. Sir Patrick Brind, command- er in chief of Allied Forces in Northern Europe. They will end Sept. 25. Participating will be ships and planes from the United States, Britain, Canada, Norway, Den- mark, France, the Netherlands and Belgium. The fleet will range from battleships like the 45,000- ton USS Wisconsin and Britain’s 42,500-ton Vanguard down to small but vital minesweepers. Defend Seas Eight large carriers from the United States, Britain and Canada will provide the task force’s aerial punch. They include two American 45,000-tonners, the Midway and the Franklin D. Roosevelt. The Soviet press has, in recent weeks, laid down a heavy cam- paign against “Mainbrace,” de- cation. The Russians are showing more than psychological interest in the naval operations, Danish naval au- thorities late last month told a | number of East German and Po- lish ships to get out of the port of Frederikshavn—one of the cen- ters of the maneuvers. A Danish Admiralty official said the Communist commanders “showed a marked and curious interest” in the exercise area. Seven Russian fishing trawlers anchored Tuesday night off the Danish Faeroe Islands, 400 miles west of Norway. A Danish Admi- ralty spokesman commented that it “‘might be ‘the traditional ap- pearance of Russian fishing ves- sels in waters where the Western navies are staging maneuvers.” Gambling Stamps Are Issued JACKSONVILLE () — Federal gambling stamps issued by the in- ternal revenue collector Thursday included: Gainesville: Wade H.

Byrd (D-Va.) re- ported today. Pe Byrd also said 2,559,122 persons were on the government’s civilian payroll during July, an increase of 2,360 over June. Both the fiscal year costs and the July totals are based upon cer- tified reports made -by the scores of federal departments, commis- sions, and agencies to the Congres- sional Committee on Reduction of Nonessential Expenditures. It is known as the Byrd com- mittee because he is the chairman and founder. For the past fiscal year (1952), the committee said payrolls of government civilian workers to- taled $9,541,000,000, an increase of 24 per cent or $1,822,000,000 over the previous 12 months, The increase was due to pay raises voted federal workers by Congress during the 12 months. Civilians employed by the mili- tary establishment received $4,- 639,000,000, an increase of 32 per cent or $1,136,000,000 over fiscal 1951. Workers in civilian agencies | were paid $4,902,000,000, a gain | of 16 per cent or $686,000,000 over | the previous year.

To his own surprise, he likes the town. Gielgud and Sir Laurence Olivier are the top exponents of Shake- speare. The difference between them is that Gielgud has limited his classic emoting to the stage, whereas Olivier’s has also been canned on film. That may or may not account for Gielgud’s decision to take an offer to play Cassius in the film version of “Julius Caesar.” At any rate, he is here. And | apparently Hollywood turned out | to be not the wacky place he ex- pected. “I find the climate unusually pleasant, the people congenial and the work enjoyable,” he remarked on the movie set. “What’s more, I | have found a house to rent and I | don’t have to pay a fortune for it.” “One other factor helped me de- cide—the international market. No | matter how accomplished an actor | is, he does not have an interna- tional market unless he is in films. I saw that happen with Olivier.” “It is a whole new field,” he remarked, “and I would have to learn all about it. After 30 years in the theater, I feel like taking life a little easier. Directing seems | like exhausting work. I saw Larry Olivier on the day he finishe- ‘Henry V’ and he looked complete- ly worn out. “It’s all right for Larry, who has always been a hard worker, and likes it. I guess I’m too lazy.” Gielgud had some frank com- ments about Olivier’s two Shake- spearean films. “I thought ‘Henry V’ was well his ‘Hamlet’ was as successful. I | think it suffered because it had | to be cut down in size. The result was that all of the action scenes were left in, but you didn’t get | the complete picture of Hamlet the man. — “I felt the same when I did | ‘Hamlet’ on radio for the Theater Guild. They gave me an hour and a half, but I still felt that wasn’t enough to really show the char- acter.” Capsule review: “Assignment ! Paris” is a fictionized account of a trial of a U.

Lewis W. Pettemay, general counsel for the Florida Railroad and Public Utilities Cmommission, gained a postponement on grounds | that the telephone company’s evi- | dence was not up to date. Petteway said he had just dis- covered that the Western Electric Co., an equipment manufacturing firm which, like Southern Bell, is | a subsidiary of American Tele- phone & Telegraph Co., had cut its prices about 20 per cent since last April.

Seventy-five per cent of the crime deluge was on programs for children. The editorial said Preston’s study showed that in the group of 153 children subjected to horror movies and radio shows, 76 per cent showed increased nervous- ness, 85 per cent suffered from sleeping disturbances, fears were increased 5-fold in 94 per cent, and 51 per cent were found to be nail-biters. The Journal added: “Up to the age of 12, common réactions included retiring to the mother’s bed for comfort and re- assurance, screaming, pulling the the head under a pillow, or diving under the covers—there to spend an uneasy night plagued by vivid recollections. . . “As early as the seventh year it was noted that habitual exposure often produced a callousness to rophy of sympathy and compas- sion toward those in distress.” The Journal said there is more to the problem than “the proposal made by one congressman, who replied to the demand of an irate mother that he do something about | television by declaring, ‘Did you | ever think of turning the damned ' der to reflect the correct invest- ment in plants and services.” Petteway then asked if the com- pany’s exhibits in the rate case reflected these two developments.
