TUCKMAN PANMUNJOM (#—The Commu- mists today unveiled a new com- promise plan to break the Korean truce deadlock and the Allies im- mediately asked time for top - echelon study. The. eight-point proposal flatly accepts one insistent Allied de- Mand—that 48,500 Communist pris- oners who refuse to go home be left in Korea after an armistice father than sent to a neutral coun- And it offers other concessions. Even though the Reds made it @lear the Allies must accept all or nothing, this appeared to be the first major break since the truce talks reopened April 26 in an effort to agree on exchange of prisoners, last major barrier to an armi- stice. Lt. Gen. William’ K.. Harrison, chief Allied delegate, said: “This is an important proposal a+ « that merits careful and con- eo wine decisions must be made by the governments them- selves.” The next meeting is scheduled for 11 a. m: ‘Saturday.

Morgan, Duval County. “We should let them work out the problems.” Gov. McCarty in his opening message to the Legislature took note of ‘widespread dissatisfac- tion with the operation of the Flor- ida Milk Commission” and said it “should be altered so as to add more consumer representation; or a new law written, which will more satisfactorily safeguard, the public interest.” : Representatives of the dairy in- dustry have a bill to add more consumers to the board. It is under study of a House sub-committee aiong with a pro- posal that the governor and com- missioner of agriculture be given authority to hear appeals from price fixing orders. Gov. McCarty signed into law the bill appropriating five million dollars to construct the first units of a medical college at the Uni- versity of Florida in Gainesville. TALLAHASSEE (#—The Senate today passed and sent to the House, 36-2, a bill which would Prohibit money lenders from re- fusing loans unless the borrowers purchased insurance from them. The bill was amended from the floor, on motion of the Senate In- surance Committee, to specifically set out that the ban on coercion would not prevent the maker of the loan from soliciting insurance business, or even recommending it, for himself or some agent with whom he prefers seeing the in- surance placed. Sen. Ripley, Jacksonville, made an effort to strike the entire anti- coercion clause from the bill, but was voted down after impassioned pleas from Senate President Johns and Sen. Pope, St. Augustine, both of whom sell insurance. Johns said the coercion @lause was necessary to prevent what happens in his home county, Brad- ford. He charged that the DuPont bank refused to allow him to com- pete for the insurance business on loans it grants-in the county, but makes as a condition of the loan the placing of the insurance with another agent. Pope said the effect of the clause was designed to preserve the constitutional right of a person to do business with whom he pleases, and would allow him to borrow money even though he chose to give his insurance on the Joan to some agent other than the lender or an agent he recommend- ed, Subscribe to The Citizen BAND BENEFIT DINNER (Continued from Page One) work to take care of the expected overflow crowd. “There will be plenty to eat,” Benny said in urging Key Westers to eat out tomorrow and at the same time help the band. 3 AMERICAN WOMEN (Continued from Page One) wreckage and rescue workers said it may be that of Miss Spring, She occupied cabin 233.

Mrs. Hoyt, sister of Miss Jordet, said the woman in 233 cried out: “Oh, I’m in agony. Please get a priest.

ATTORNEY GENERAL (Continued from Page One) of Florida in support of his de- claration that: y “The Utility Board of the City of Key West cannot lawfully en- ter into a collective bargaining agreement under which it would or might become bound to alter working conditions, change rates of pay, or submit labor disputes to arbitration.” At a recent meeting of the Uti- lity Board, the question was rais- ed as to the legality of the city’s right to giving away its “‘soveriegn rights.” A forty hour week and a retire- ment plan were among the chief requests that the workers made. Attorney Lester could not be reached today for comment. The board is expected to discuss the Attorney General’s opinion in the near future at a special meet- ing.
