: Reds Thieaten US. In Alleged Ship Seizure Of American Ship By RICHARD R. KASISCHKE MOSCOW #—The Soviet Union accused the U. S. Navy today of seizing a Russian tafker in waters between Formosa and the Phlip- pines. The Danish-built ship was one the Americans tried last year to prevent being delivered to the Russians. A stiff Russian note, made pub- lic here today, said the 8,840-ton Tuapse was seized Wednesday “by a warship of the destroyer type” which threatened to open fire. The. note threatened ‘appropriate mea- sure for safeguarding the security of Soviet merchant ships sailing in that area.” Dental Made (In Pearl Harbor, Adm. Felix B. Stump denied any American warship was involved. Stump, com- mander of the U. S.. Pacific Fleet, said “no U. S. warship has seized any Russian ship.”) (Chinese Nationalist officials on Formosa withheld comment on the} which regularly harasses Commu- nist shipping off the Red China coast, operates destroyers and pa- trol ‘craft loaned by the United States.) The Soviet ‘note, handed U. S. Ambassador Charles E. Bohlen late yesterday, demanded the immedi- ate return of the Tuapse, its crew and its cargo of petroleum prod- ucts, as well as the “severe punish- ment of thie American officials con- cerned in the organization of this unlawful act.” Position Given The position given for the al- legéd seizure is in the Luzon Straits, about 125 milés south of Formosa ahd 60 miles north of the: main Philippine island of Lu-| 1 20n. The Russian note said the tank- er was stopped at 4 a.m. (local time) Wednesday by the warship “and, having been threatened with the use of arms, was forced to change its course and follow that warship. “After reception of a report from the captain on the tanker about the attack on the part of the war- ship . . , radio contact with the tanker was disrupted,” the note continued. “‘The further fate of the Soviet vessel and its crew is un- known.

Meanwhile, Hines and Church formed a new company, the Ca- ribbean Ferry System, and are presently negotiating with the city for the dock. However, the Chamber of Commerce has taken steps to re- quest the city commission to ap- int thé committee to air the ree proposals and iron out the knotty situation. Sirugo today issued a state- ment clarifying the reasons why he split with Hines and Church. The latter pair claim that when it came time to negotiate with Sirugo for a lease on the Simon- ton Street property, that he “held them up.” Sirugo Speaks Sirugo said today: “Hines has claimed that I am trying to gouge him but before he was in the pic- turé, I-was dealing with Church and we spent a lot of time sur- veying’ the Cuban coast for the purpose of bringing about a ferry. At that time it was agreed that the corhpany would pay for the "| Use of facilities in Key West at -/thé same rate they were to be Ne Mame Key (est ond) 4-28 20m Boca Chica Sandy Pt. = =—ch im Caldes Channel (north end) = +2 10m charged in Cuba, namely $2.50 for each car and 75 cents per pas- senger. “But Mr. Hines failed to make blic the fact that arrangements fad been made in light of work I had done on the property including fill and lumber I had bought to provide the required facilities. It would require 40 to 50-thousand dollars to provide a proper ferry terminal. “However, if a larger ‘boat be- gan to operate from Key West, Mr. Hines knows that the facitities would become obsolete and would be a total loss, and now they want the city dock. “I have always been in favor of running a bigger and better ship than they have to offer, but I felt that a ferry of any kind is better than none at all.” “Hines is trying to keep larger ships out of Key West.” GET- ACQUAINTED SALE While They Last! 21° MOTOROLA ZENITH RCA TELEVISION and ANTENNA INSTALLATION -- 286 PLUS TAX @ No Down Payment © +- TERMS -:- Poinciana Television and Radio COMMERCIAL CENTER.

Harold Laubscher, secretary of the local Chamber of Commerce and Mary Lee Graham_ president of the Chamber were on hand to greet the McLeans and witness their membership in the Chamber’s “King Conch” club. Laubscher said that about one in ten visitors to the office actually sign the book and receive their membership card in the “King Conch” club.” CHURCHILL AND EDEN (Continued From Page One) and try to make sure that there are no misunderstandings. “The English-speaking family or brotherhood is rather a large one and not entirely without a few things here and there. (sic). “And if we work together we may get along all right ourselves and do a lot to help our neighbors in the world, some of whom on either side of the Iron Curtain seem to have even greater prob- lems than ourselves.” When ‘he finished speaking Churchill turned to Secretary Dul- les whom he has known for a long time and ,asked-in his famous Churchillian growl “was that all right?” Dulles grinned and warm- ly_shook his hand. Eden made no ‘statement. Ex- public .weleoming comments Nixoti and Dulles also went undelivered. Nine minutes after he set foot on American ‘soil, Churchill climbed into an open convertible with Nixon and they drove to the White House. Eden and Dulles followed in a second car, White House Welcome Eisenhower, with a broad grin, welcomed Churchill at the White House steps with a vigorous hand- shake, and a “good morning.” Holding Churchill’s left elbow, the President helped the British leader up the stairs where he introduced him to Mrs. Eisen- hower. They paused for about three minutes while nearly 100 photographers, newsreel and tele- vision cameramen recorded the greeting. Eisenhower greeted Eden by saying ‘‘it’s good to see you.” The President also shook hands warm- ly with half a dozen of Churchill’s aides. A big crowd had gathered in front of the White House gates and applauded vigorously as Church- ill’s automobile drove through. Eisenhower, Churchill, Dulles and Eden planned to lunch together and officials thought they would then go over the program for their talks. Tonight the President arranged a dinner party bringing together British and American of- ficials. Congressional leaders were invited to lunch tomorrow. A communique on the talks prob- ably will be issued Sunday night. “Winnie” Is Chipper The 79-year-old Churchill left London in an apparently chipper | spirit amid cries of “(Good old Win- | nie’ from the watching crowd. | He displayed, on the whole more | cheer than seemed to be felt by | any of those with whom he confers | in Washington.
