POT SIMMERS IN SPAIN Dictator Francisco Franco in Spain would like to have famed Gibraltar and the British fort installations and harbor in his hands. He gets a bit riled every time] he thinks about the British base on the southern tip of | Spain. To put the pressure on John Bull, and pull the Lion’s tail a bit, the Spanish government reportedly or- ganized student demonstrations against British occupa- tion of Gibraltar. The students fell in line with the idea, and the demonstration was staged. The British Government thereupon protested promptly to Franco’s government and evidently Spanish officials decided it was time to call a halt to the demon- strations, Spain is not yet strong enough to twist the tail too hard. But students in Madrid who had been demonstrat- ing for Spanish rights at Gibraltar, thought the demon- strations were coming along fine. They didn’t see why they should be called off. In fact they told Spanish of- ficers who attempted to quell them to take a leap. In a dictator country you don’t do that sort of thing, and the Spanish constabulary let the students know promptly who was the boss man in and around Madrid. He was and is Francisco Franco, a man put on his seat with the aid of Hitler and Mussolini. The students, how- ever didn’t submit lying down. They fought back, and injured police officers. Students were also injured. The upshot of the whole thing was to stir as much resentment against the Spanish Government as against John Bull. The British, mean- while, filed a second protest and let the students sim- mer. All of which goes to show that dictators, even in Spain, cannot always maneuver the people. The people This Rock By Bill Gibb The Navy has an outfit that sel-' dom receives the praise it is en- titled to. It is a group composed of fine young enlisted men and of- 'ficers who devote fully as much time to serving the civilian popu- lace of Key West as the military— I’m speaking of the Shore Patrol. The Shore Patrol, working with members of the highway patrol, the sheriff's office, and the Key West police, are primarily inter- ested in the welfare of servicemen. Occasionally this interest extends to the point of either having to place them under arrest or taking them back to the Base for protec- itive custody. In almost every in- stance of this nature, they perform their duty with a minimum of vio-' lence. Unfortunately, due mostly to ig- norance and what appears to be a superiority complex, we have in Key West a certain class of civi- lian law enforcement officer who ridicules the Shore Patrol. I know of instances where this latter type of officer has used firearms in af- Of Ours officer. I can truthfully say that with the exception of a few brother officers such as Mario Santana or Harry Lee Baker, I received much More. cooperation in the perfor- mance of my duties from the Shore Patrol than I did from the Key ‘West Police Department. Invari- ably, I could depend upon the SP Toving patrol to aid me if a child was lost, if a certain automobile needed to be located, etc. The SP foot patrol never failed to be ‘John- ny-on-the-spot’ when trouble broke out on the streets, Often they were able to warn me ahead of time so that potential fights could be nip- Ped in the bud. It was because of this kind of cooperation that my record of ar- rests included more civilians than it did Navy men—a fact which many Key Westers did not appre- ciate. Civilian arrests have a ten- dency to drag in polities which is a decidedly unhappy position for an arrestng officer to find him- self in, Someday this situation will change.

The house itself was of traditional. Southern architecture. At either corner, and about ten feet removed from the house proper, was an octagi nal structure. These were gargonniérs erected by the oi nal builder of the house for growing family of sons. At pres- ent, as I learned a little later, they were occupied respectively by Amédee and Henri, and Beau- regard Dumont and Lewis Haye. As Amédée brought the car to a stop in front of the house, the ‘oad front door opened, and an elderly colored man hurried to the side of the ca: By this time a woman who ap- peared to be somewhere in her early sixties had come out upon the gallery. She wasn’t fat exact- Wy ut she was what might be lescribed as a lady with a front. Seeing me, she sailed forward. “So this is Katherine!” she ex- claimed. “Welcome to Oleander Plantation, my dear.” “Aunt Minerva, Peter,” Amé- dée introduced. “How do you do?” I murmured feebly. - Aunt Minerva turned to the colored man. “Take Miss Kai erine’s things upstairs, Bounti- ful,” she directed. “She’s to share the west room with Miss Rober- ta.” She slipped a plump arm about my waist, and swept me across the gallery and into the nee loor near the foot of the stairs opened, and a man peared. He had the dark hair and eyes of the Dumonts, but there the family resemblance stopped. His other features were encased in a soft puffiness which gave him the appearance of a slightly dis- sipated cherub. ., ‘My son Claude, Katherine,” Aunt Minerva announced. Claude Dumont had been smok- ing a big, crook-stemmed pipe. Now he removed it from his mouth to permit his face to crease itself into an oily smirk. “Well!” he exclaimed. Then he was almost as if she was ta It ee nat pstairs “If you're going‘ wy to dress now, Pickett,” she said, “you may show Katherine to her room. I presume she will want to refresh hi after her journey.” * WE escaped up the stairs then, leaving Claude still smirking fatuously. Pick left me at the door of the west room, where I found Bobby Brennon, who was to share it . loing things to her face in front of a mirror. “Well,” she observed as soon as we had exchanged greetings, “I see you've met Cousin Claude.” “How did you know?” I asked in surprise. “He's the only one here,” she explained, “who takes advantage of the cousin relationship to paw. TI can tell from your expression that he must have tried it on you.’ “Well, not exactly,” Ivanswered with a laugh that the recent memory of Claude made a little forced. Then I asked, “What are the rest of them like? ‘Beau reminds you of som iy out of a Sabatini nov she begaw. Lee is nice too, in a quiet sort of way. Uncle Raoul, their father, advanced and snreened my hand in a big paw that felt like warm, sticky taffy. “The Dumont men sure know how to pick ’em.
