MILTON KELLY WASHINGTON (# — Vice Presi- dent Nixon states the case for the Republican administration tonight in a radio-television address while a family fight rages within the GOP over Sen. McCarthy (R-Wis) and some of his investigative aides. Yesterday McCarthy bitterly pro- tested Army Department officials had attempted to “blackmail” his investigations subcommittee int dropping a probe of the Army. He made public a document that represented Secretary of the Army Robert T. Stevens as trying to divert the group’s attention to a search for wrongdoing in the Navy, Air Force and Defense Depart- ment. Stevens and John G. Adams, the Army’s general counsel retorted that such accusations were untrue. McCarthy had said Adams told him several months ago a report embarrassing to the subcommittee would be made public unless an investigations subcommittee into called off. : Accusations Fly Before the day was over some Republicans as well as Democrats in the Senate were demanding in- vestigations to determine who is telling the truth in the crossfire of accusations. Nixon had been designated last Monday to deliver the party’s reply to criticism by Adlai E. Stevenson, the 1952 Democratic presidential nominee. One of Ste- venson’s thrusts was a description of the GOP as “half McCarthy and half Eisenhower.” President Eisenhower had backed Stevens when, after an earlier row with McCarthy, the Secretary said he would protest “abuse” at the hands of investigat- ing committees. The explosion that again shat- tered the peace between. Stevens and McCarthy came when Senate sources yesterday made public an Army report saying efforts were made to get special treatment for G. David Schine, an unpaid con- sultant to McCarthy’s subcommit- tee, after Schine was inducted last November as a private. Schine Problem The report cited instances when McCarthy had allegedly exerted pressure on Army Department of- ficials and his subcommittee’s chief counsel, Roy Cohn, allegedly had used threats. McCarthy’s retort of “black- mail” was accompanied by mem- oranda he said came from the subcommittee files and depicted of- ficials tryng to sdetrack probes of Army matters Nixon said he will “not dodge the issues” in tonight’s speech, which will be carried. at 10:30 p.m., EST over CBS television and radio dress a week ago. But Nixon kept his own counsel as to the exact strategy he will use. There was no advance text of his speech. He left it open for | any revision deemed necessary up to the moment of delivery. But he discussed his plans in a 45- minute conference yesterday with Eisenhower. May Name Senator One congressional leader, who asked not to be quoted by name, said Nixon probably will name Mc- Carthy specifically in his talk. This leader said there was no doubt that Nixon would cite President Eisenhower's legislative program as the big issue before the nation and would dispute Stevenson’s con- tention that the administratio has embraced ‘“‘McCarthyism” as a campaign issue. McCarthy’s methods of investigat- |ing alleged Communists are only a passing and sometimes unfortu- | nate phase in the overall job of Tunning the goverment. Se, Duff (R-Pa), one of Eisen- |hower’s original 1952 supporters, | Said in an interview he believes the President program is being imperiled by the controversy over McCarthy which has cut deep into \the Republican party. | “If we don’t stop this thing, there isn’t going to be any pro- gram,” Duff declared. “I think the country is fed up with the McCarthy wrangle — at least my Courteous Act, Where and Octe——__ (Plegse sign your name & oddress) Return ballot to nearest AKA office, to The Key West Citizen, or to the AAA, 2898 Biscayne Blvd., Migni, Fic. March 31 is the deadline mail indicates it is.” | Criticism Grows | “McCarthy has overshot his | mark,” Duff declared. He added | that the Army report on Cohn’s | activities seemed to him to be rea- sonable. And criticism of McCarthy by | Republicans reached even into his jown subcommittee. Sen. Dirksen of Illinois accused McCarthy yes- jterday of breaking an agreement |among GOP members by releas- jing the memoranda in answer tg | the Army report. Dirksen also said in an interview the Republican members vester- day had agreed to meet, go over the Army report | The administration line that ap-| OFFICIAL |Peared to be emerging was that paragraph by | paragraph and have Cohn present, under oath. Dirksen said he was waiting for the meeting to begin when Sen. Potter (R-Mich), another subeom- mittee member, called McCarthy and learned no meeting was to be held. McCarthy said later # was “an inexcusable oversight” on his part that he didn’t let Dirksen know in advance of the release of the mem- oranda but he had “no choice” but to make them available. ing, that Republican members have a responsibility with regard to the committee’s staff and “I do mean to meet it.” “There will be no fooling about that—the matter has gone far enough,” he said. Cohn Erred Sen, Mundt (R-SD), a commit- tee member who has defended Mc- Carthy’s methods, said in a state- ment that Cohn “made a serious mistake” in urging the Army to give Schine “treatment different from that accorded any other Soldier.”” Sen. Potter, another committee member who has worked closely with McCarthy im the past, said that if the Army report’s “‘shock- ing charges” on Cohn’s activities were accurate “Mr. Cohn should be removed immediately.” He said, however, he favors call. ing Cohn and Adams to put them under oath as witnesses. Other demands for investigation came from members of the Senate Armed Services Committee. Sen. Knowland of California, the Senate Republican leader, said he wants an inquiry made to show who is telling the truth in the ac- cusations. But Knowland, a mem- ber of the Armed Services Com- mittee, said he thought McCarthy’s own subcommittee “ought to get at the bottom of this thing” be- cause its staff members were in- volved. “They must let the chips fall where they may,” he said. Sen. Kefauver (D-Tenn), another Armed Services Committee mem- ber, authorized a statement that Chairman Saltonstall (R-Mass) had indicated Kefauver could raise the issue of an investigation, if he chose, next Thursday, On that day Secretary of Defense Wilson, Stev- ens and Adams will appear at a public hearing on other matters. Babs May Have Walked Out On Rubirosa PALM BEACH, Fla. (—Reports that Woolworth heiress Barbara Hutton had walked out on her latest prince charming, Porfirio Rubirosa, gave the international smart set another choice morsel of gossip to chew’ on today, Society sources here said Bar- bara left the rented honeymoon villa Thursday night and moved in with her aunt, Mrs. James P, Donahue, at the Everglades Club. She was reported in seclusion and did not answer her telephone. Rubirosa, the suave playboy-dip- lomat she married Dec. 30, wi reachable but not talking. “I do not know anything,” Rub- irosa told a reporter when asked about the separation reports. “(Ask er? Rubirosa, the Dominican Repub- lic minister to France, hasn’t been in Palm Beach the full 10 weeks sinee the honeymoon with Barbara began.

Secretary of the Interior Douglas McKay announced the expansion yesterday. The new area brought into the park limits is in Collier McKay said, “‘is the inclusion of a portion of the unique Ten Thousand Islands area, described by con- servationists and naturalists as an ‘outstanding national attraction’,” About 10,000 acres of the addition were donated to Florida by the Collier Corp. and have been held; in trust for ultimate conveyance to the federal government. Another 30,000 acres already were owned by the government. The balance of the new area is owned by the state and private holders. Principal islands included in the addition are Houston, Chevalier and Alligator. Park Supt. Daniel Beard said Duck Rock, an islet where 75,000 white ibis roost from May to Oc- tober, was placed inside the park by the action. The new area also covers feeding grounds where binds from Duck Rock get from 16 to 18 tons of natural food daily. ROAD AND TOLL (Continued from Page One) lection of tolls, Webb admitted that under the present setup, whereby Monroe County residents do not pay tolls, there is little that can be done. He suggested that the tolls be reduced to a flat 50 cents and that. Monroe County residents pay the tolls the same as other Florida residents and winter visitors. Then, be said, an electric eye could be installed and a close check kept on the situation. He said Monroe County is discriminating | against the rest of the state by not paying tolls. Entertaining Questioned When Road Board Attorney George Dayton asked the com- mission for comments on the com- mission’s policy of entertaining dignitaries lavishly at their Pig- eon Key headquarters, commssion chairman Anthony Demerritt said that “the procedure of entertain- ing prominent people was inherit- ed from earlier commissions.” NAL SUGGESTION TO (Continued from Page One) service until a new field could be built. And, he added, starting from scratch on a new field might mean floating a bond issue. Allen was high in his praise of Sen. Smathers’ work in trying to get better air service for Monroe County. During the past few days Sma- thers has been meeting in Wash- ington with CAB brass, post of- fice officials and NAL executives. The CAB said the county’s com- plaint about premature cancella- tion of three airmail flights here was a matter for post office con- sideration. Letter to Smathers Allen today released the text of a letter he wrote to Sen. Smathers outlining the county’s position in the dispute. The letter was dated March 12. The text follows: Hon. George Smathers United State Senator Senate Office Building Washington, D. C. Dear George: We in Monroe County certainly appreciate the interest that y have taken in our fight to provide air service into Key West. Know- ing how, busy you are in the Sen- ate and that you have 66 other counties calling on you to help in their problems, we are grateful to you for having taken hours of your time to interview the various agencies and parties involved and telephone us in person on these matters. There are several points which I would like to clear up for you which I believe will present an sri different picture in your mind. In revising our system of char- ges to the airlines, our primary objective was not to provide a new source of income for the support of the Monroe County government. It was part of a long-term pro- gram to develop air travel to and from Miami and points North and to obtain a larger segment of the travel that comes from the North through Miami to Key West and from Key West to Cuba and other Points in the West Indies and Lat- in America. Battle Told We have fought a long and hard battle to obtain Meacham Field. George Baker, president of Na- tional Airlines, suggested to you me that the Monroe County Com- missioners consider helping Na- tional Airlines get into Boca Chica Field and abandon Meacham Field. I wish to assure you that Monroe County has no intention of doing this and that when in years to come it becomes necessary to give up Meacham Field for the further development of the Island, it will only be done when we have another county-owned or city-own- ed field to take its place. In the event this country becomes invol- ved in hostilities or any other na- tional emergency arises the Navy would of necessity bar all civilian lines from Boca Chica Field thus cutting Key West off from all civil air travel. This suggestion by Mr. Baker of National Airlines is right in line with this company’s thinkng to- ward Key West. National Airlines comes into Key West only for the Purpose of blocking another ma- jor airline from using our city. Naturally they will not participate in any long-range program which would draw more of the traffic which is now being moved from Miami to Havana through Key West. Their main objective is to move their traffic through Miami to Havana and they have consist- ently refused to make it possible for a person to travel to Havana (by air) through Key West. Transportation Problem A person buying a ticket in any one of the principal cities of the nation is unable to travel to Ha- vana via Key West even though we have several flights daily leav- ing Key West for the Cuban capitol. The County Commission and its airport advisor, Mr. Harold Wilde, have never held that the 50 cent per passenger charge is the one and only way of assessing charges against National Airlines for the And commission member Sam | use of Meacham Field. We have Harris injected a comment at this point that the “‘editor of a Miami newspaper (Miami Daily News) was at one time a guest at Pigeon Key.” When the discussion touched on various real estate transactions of the district, Webb suggested that the commission get out of the real estate business.” “Advertise all of the property you own and sell it to the highest bidder and collect taxes on it,” he commented. Transaction Questioned Attorney Dayton and Will Al- bury, legal adviser for the com- of whether or not a transaction between the district and county tax assessor Claude Gandolfo and county attorney Paul Sawyer had been OK’d by the State Road Board. Albury said that the deed carries a clause which says that it would not be valid until it is approved by the proper state agen- cy. However, the commission minutes did not show that such approval had been given. At yesterday’s meeting, *i:: com- mission also passed a resolution approving an audit of their books by a Miami accounting firm. Chairman Demerritt said the ac-|that it might not be able to pur-| tion was necessary so that pay- consistently imparted the informa- tion to them that we would con- sider the use of other methods by |which landing charges could be |computed but he has refused even |to talk to this commission or its advisor stating that we would \first have to go back to the old |rates prior to January 1, 1954 be- fore he would consider any revi- jsion. We have proceeded on our | airport planning that any improve- ments made to Meacham Field would be in the interest of the airlines and that better facilities would bring increased _ traffic never made any concession what- soever to the commission yet. Boca Chica Bid He asks you to sell us on the fly out of Boca Chica Field. Mr. that Mr. Baker would be willing ted to enter Boca Chica Field and by his own words, construct a terminal at Boca Chica Field. This together with the necessary® fen- jcing and security guards would Pun into thousands of dollars. Some time age when the county thought |chase Meacham Field it entered Costa Rica means “Rich Coast.” | ment to the firm could be cleared. negotations with the Navy and ob- and you passed the request on to/| |through Key West. Mr. Baker has | mission, differed on the question | idea of supporting his request to! Scottie Peek of your office stated | to comply with the requirements | of the Navy if they were permit-| tained estimates on a steel fe which the Navy required to La constructed on that portion of Boca Chica Field which might be made available to civilian aviation. The estimate ran above $15,000. A |terminal at a minimum would run another $15,000 at least and at jleast one security guard around |the clock with a minimum salary |of $3,600 would run another $10,- | 000. Computed on the basis of Na- tional’s travel last year the coun- | ty would ask National to pay, un- jder the new system of charges, |an“amount in the neighborhood of | $6,000. For this amount the county proposed to borrow a sum in the j amount of $400,000 and extend the runways, light the field, build a (new terminal, provide quarters for CAA, fire equipment and all |of the necessary items needed for an airport of this size. The amount which we anticipated from Na- tional would be less than that bid on the airport parking lot. Free Enterprise Now, George, I am sure that you believe in the free enterprise system for our country because that was one of the tenets of your political campaign. We in Monroe County are not demanding that National Airlines provide service jinto Key West and Monroe County | at a disadvantage or a loss to their |company. We have informed them |of our charges. It is up to them |to advise us what they will do. If |we cannot get together, we ask |that they withdraw from the field and let another airline provide the service and develop traffic from |Key West. Another of the major |airlines would gladly come into Key West and provide a stop at Marathon if Natinal would give up the run. Peninsular Airlines is now | attempting to obtain a permit to |run between Key West and Miami on the intra-state basis. The sys- tem of charges throughout the country used by airports is as varied as any other field. There jis no standard system of charges used throughout the country. Thus, | who can say that our charges are | out of line anymore than a person moving from Key West to New York City might appeal to the courts that the rent of $160 per month was out of line because he | paid in Key West only $75 for the | same type house. Thus, if National lis in good faith and their only |objection is the paying of the 50 |cent passenger tax, why is it that |they are not willing to go along with Monroe County spending the same amount of money on Meac- |ham Field as they are willing to spend to begin service at Boca Chica Fieid. Lost Air Traffic Despite the fact that we are years behind, it is still possible for Key West to recover some of the air traffic that it has lost over the years due to negative thinking such as it expressed by National’s pol- icy. Vet, from National’s viewpoint I can see when it would be against their interest to see air travel through Key West develop. How- ever, we public officials in Key West and Monroe County are charged with the responsibility of developing our county and city and we are determined to do so. Unable to negotiate with Nation- al, the County Board contacted of- ficials of Peninsular Air Transport and interested them in operating intra-state between Key West and | Miami. We believe that we will be lable to secure a certificate from | the governor to permit them to | run this schedule but naturally this | airline is concerned with the at- | titude of CAB should this service be inaugurated. Even though this airline operates entirely on this schedule within state law, they know that should CAB frown upon this operation} they could be inconvenienced and caused considerable trouble on their runs inter-state. Peninsular Question Also, your Mr. Peek mentioned that should a passenger travel from Key West to Miami by Penin- sular and then purchase a ticket to a,point outside the State of Florida, the CAB could consider the Peninsular Air Transport to be an inter-state carrier. If this be the case, it would be impossble \for any airline to operate intra- state. If CAB chose to take this attitude it could only mean that this government agency, like many |others, created for the benefit and | protection of the public, use their power not in the interest of the | | public but for the protection of | |big business which reaches out | |and exerts so much influence that lits true purpose is lost. As stated to you by Mr. Baker, National Airlines primary objec- tive at the present time is to enter | Boca Chica Field. Thus it is very difficult for him to sit down with | |the County and reach a satisfac-| tory agreement. We have informed him that we will meet with him | or his representative at any time lof the day or night. ; | Again I can assure you that it| would not be in the interest of | the citizens of Monroe County to entertain the idea of abandoning Meacham Field without first se- curing another airfield to take its place. Our air traffic has increas- | \ed by leaps and bounds during the | past several years and it is our aim to further increase it by pro- viding the airlines with first class | facilities. | Thanking you for your assistance | and interest, 1 remain, Sincerely yours, | JOE ALLEN Commissioner County Navy, Cuban Club To Meet Sunday At Walker Field The Subron Four baseball team will cross bats with the Cuban |Club Sunday afternoon at the Navy's Walker Field at 2 p. m Manager Valdez of the Cubans, | will have J.

The new and older drivers are begining to mix it up in earnest. The timid atmosphere that pre- vailed among the new drivers a few weeks back has gradually dis- appeared, and things are getting hotter at every meet. Paul Toppino still holds the top spot by a slim margin of nine points. Bob Turner and his speedy V8 are gradually cutting Paul’s lead down. The triple win trophy will be on display at Evans Enterprises upon arrival and will remain there until someone posts a triple win in the dash. Rip Ault was winner of the In- augural Dash. The three cars qual- ified for the second running this Sunday afternoon, as follows: Tom Gardner; car nine; Bob Turner in V8; Rip Ault car 40. The Consolation prizes donated by several Key West merchants made quite a hit with the drivers. This column feels that the prizes were in part responsible for the daring and breath taking show put on by the drivers the past Sunday. The thrills and spills surpassed all expectation, and as the racing fever has reached a high pitch in Key West. Each meeting promises to exceed the past in thrills. NEW CRAWFISH (Continued from Page One) and must be available for state officers. Measurements Set The new regulations also state that no firm or person shall have in his possession, crawfish measuring less than ten inches overall or weighing less than one pound, The law states that any female egg-bearing crawfish must not be taken and any such specimens found in traps must be released. It sets a stiff penalty for strip- ping the eggs from crawfish and offering them for sale. The regulation also states that only wooden “slat traps” may be used in .crawfishing. The law says that the possession of wire or grabs for the purpose of tak- ing crawfish is illegal . Size of the wooden traps is set at two feet wide, two feet high and three feet long .Ten per cent of any one fisherman’s traps may be re-inforced with 16 gauge, one-inch poultry wire to protect them from the ravages of sea turtles, however. The traps must be buoyed and tagged with a permit number is- sued by the Supervisor of Con- servation. SALE OF MOTEL (Continued from Page Six) Philip Spiegel to Renard W. Gs- inger for $4,000. H. A.
