Page 8 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Tuesday, March 3, 1953 Governor’s Work To Be Carried On By Assistants TALLAHASSEE (% — Although Gov. Dan McCarty may be away from his desk for several weeks recovering from a coronary throm- bosis attack Feb. 25. business will continue as usual in the gcvernor’s office here. The governor’s two assistants, Warren Blackmon and Charles Brown, will be aided by John Mc- Carty, the governor's brother, in conducting the routine affairs that pass through tne governor’s office. John McCarty, a Ft. Pierce lawyer will serve on 4 voluntary, non-paid basis. “My status here is as a brother to assist with the governor’s per-| sonal problems. Naturally, as his brother, I'll assist Warren and Charlie with anything that comes up,” John McCarty szid. The. governor, who his doctors | say is convalescing satisfactorily, probably will be able to handle major executive matters from his bed in Tallahassee Memorial Hos- | Pital before the end ‘of the week, Blackmon said. His assistants plan to keep the governor briefed on all happenings in the office. | The governor’s absence from his | desk will not impede his legislative | program, Blackmon said. McCarty has been working on the matters he will propose io the 1953 Legis- lature, convening April 7, since the | second primary election last May | and little remains to be done, | Blackmon added. | DEATH ALBERT PEDRO CAPO Albert Pedro Capo, known to his | friends as Allie, died in Los Ange- les, California, at 10:45 a.m. on/ February) 26.

The supplemental appropriations measure was hiked by a number of minor amendments, such as $980 for an automobile for Vice Presi- dent Nixon and a $175,000 increase in the emergency fund for the President. The bill is for expenses in the year ending June 30. The total is still $1,380,195,538 below the amount sought by ex- President Truman before he left office Jan. 20. Bulk of the cut was a House-imposed slash of $1,200,- 000,000 in funds for the military— a cut termed “phoney” by some congressmen who said the money would have to be voted later, if not now. The measure now goes to Sen- ate-House conference to straighten out differences between the Senate and House versions.
