Diplomatic sources noted: Church- ill has. spoken before Congress sev- eral times in the past in the course of eight visits to the United States sinee the beginning of World War II. However, they~ said no invita- tion for a congressional-appearance has yet been issued: for ‘the visit, which: begins -a~week. from: tomor- row. The other possibility was suggest- ed by’ Eisenhower himself at his news conference yesterday. He said a British friend had-reminded him that on visits to Washington Churchill was always a luncheon guest at the National Press Club. Distinguished visitors often speak there. Plans for the visit, announced Tuesday, are’ atill. in process of development. Churchill, British Foreign Secretary Eden and staff aides are due to fly from London next Thursday-afternoon and arrive in Washington sometime Friday. The talks between the chiefs of state will begin Friday afternoon or at latest Friday evening, inform- ants said, and will go on at least through June 26 and 27. Churchill and Eden are expected to remain as White House guests through Sun- day. If there is then reason for their remaining in Washington one or two days more they, may move to the British Embassy. Diplomatic informants continued to insist that there will be no fixed program of subjects for discussion. They said Churchill’s interest in coming here primarily is to have a series of private conversations with Eisenhower. If there is any formal conferring on world prob- lems to be done, ‘one informant suggested that it probably will be handled by Eden and Secretary of State Dulles and their top advisers. Eisenhower told his news confer- ence his main aim at the informal meeting with Churchill would be to strengthen America’s bridge of friendship with Britain. There is no fixed agenda, he said, but the talks will deal with virtually every urgent world problem, ‘including the Southeast Asia crisis. Authorities discount strongly any speculation that the 79-year-old British leader will urge Eisenhow- er to agree to arrange a confer- ence with Soviet Premier Ma- lenkov.

FIFTH STREET Miami Beach, Fla. r bmn kee’s ner than Legionitems By JUDSON STEPHENs, 2nd VICE COMMANCER Arthur Sawyer Post, American Legion Clesing of Legion Year 1953-54: Saturday evening the Legion year 1953-54 will be closed out in the record book at the installation ceremonies to be staged at 8 Pp. m, The officers for the Post for Le- gion Yéar 1954-55 will be installed by Victor Wilde, 10th District Com- mander, and the Key West Guard of Honor. Our membership records show 645 members for this year which is below last year’s total member- ship but is not indicative of jess work on the part of the members but laxity of old members continu- ing their membership in our Post. During the year with the many transfers of Naval personnel, it is very hard to get close to 100 per cent membership. We only fell 75 short of that goal this year and I believe that this reflects credit upon Post Com- mander Bethel P. Johnson, There isn’t a member who can say Be- thel hasn’t given his all to the Post this year. I myself wish to thank Bethel for doing so much with so little help from the membership, I think we have had a successful year in spite of the fact that at- tendance hasn’t been what it could have been. Thanks again, Bethel! wk & Marathon Installation: The new officers for 1954-55 for Marathon Post 154 will be install- ed Friday, June 18, at 8 p. m. by the Key West Guard of Honor and Victor Wilde, the 10th District Com- mander. All Legionnaires are urg- ed to attend this function. A cor- dial ‘welcome has been received from the Marathon Post for our membership to attend this func- tion. kook \ Boys’ State: \ Ihe Post this year is setting new record by sending 12 boys to Boys’ State in Tallahassee. The Post itself is paying the expenses of four, the 40 and 8 for one and seven other civie organizations ¢o- operated with us to send a total of 12. ‘ Anyone who would like to see the Boys off to Tallahassee may do so by being at the Greyhound Bus Depot on Saturday (June 19) at 5 p. m. The boys will journey to Miami by bus, transfer to a chartered bus there along with the Miami Boy Staters and go on to Tallahassee. They will return on ‘|the 27th the same way. All Le- gionnaires are urged to come and see them off! xk * * Legionitems: This weekly column in the Key West Citizen was arranged in or- der to bring to the Legionnaires of Post 28 the items of interest con- cerning them.

He goes before a critical Na- tional Assembly today to outline his policy on Indochina, where he has long advocated direct negoti- ations Sys Ft Communist-led Vietminh, and the proposed Euro- pean Defense Community, for which he has little love, He was also due to give his views on the nationalist-torn French North African protector- ates of Tunisia and Morocco; the small French colonies in India, which the Nehru government wants; and the large French budg- et deficit, which he has favored reducing by a cut in military ex- penditures. The Premier-designate was said to believe the Geneva conference on Indochina should be kept going Legion as a whole. I hope that this has been accomplished. I take this opportunity to thank The Key West Citizen for its splendid co- operation in letting us put the column in the newspaper. I hope that we will be able to continue to do so next year.

Former Sonar Instructor Is Back In Navy After 89 days as a civilian, for- mer Fleet Sonar School instructor, John Sowash, SO2, reenlisted in the Navy and is back in the Key West area again. He reported to ZX-11 for duty. Sowash, who received a $400 a month job from the publicity giv- en him by a Fleet Home Town News story while he was at the school last year, reenlisted chief+ ly because of the Navy’s retire- ment plan. “On the outside,” he stated, “I would have had to work until I was 60, and the retirement plan wasn't as good a one as I'll get from the Navy in 15 more years.” “T >-ve 5 years in already,” he added. “You don’t have the same ad- vantages on the outside,” Sowash continued. “One of the main ad- vantages is that you get paid in the Navy when you're sick. On the outside, if you get sick, you're in a lotiof financial trouble,” “T think the Navy is a good deal for anyone who has some time in the Service.” Citizen Want Ads Pay Ojft. up y 402 DUVAL STREET We Cheerfully Exchange or Refund eu fa Wl tty Myth Wty At, q U 4 MEORT
