Later, according to Chaachou’s testimony, Avak came to Miami and Mrs. Phillips switched her af- fections to him. “She told me the Lord had sent her a vision to love Avak,” Cha- achou testified. “I told her that was a wonderful vision.” Avak first came to public notice when he was brought to this coun- try in 1947 by Krikor Arakelian, a wealthy California wine grower te cure his son, an epileptic. After’ the Californian withdrew his because the boy re- mai ill despite Avak’s ministra- tions, the healer came to Miami where Chaachou befriended him and became his sponsor until the divorce suit developed. DARDEN DENIES (Continued from Page One) killings because he would profit from the estates of the man and two women. He was a trusted legal adviser to each and handled many of their financial arrangements. Sheriff Pat Gordon said he caused the plotters to show their hand when he staged a fake kid- naping of Mrs. Roach. Durden was arrested believing that Mrs. Roach had been done away with by a hired gunman, Gordon said. Durden said he was to be paid; $25,000 when “‘the Gerlach deal” was comipleted and Manuel (Shorty) Reeves, Pensacola Negro who posed as the trigger man, was to get $5,000. Reeves worked as an undercover man in the con- spiracy and kept officers informed of the developments. Kelly said he does not plan to use the statement at Durden’s trial. “We don’t need it,” he ex- plained. Durden tas contended he was promised a light fine and no prison sentence for making the statement. Kelly. said he told Durden that would be done if Durden told the full story ‘but that Durden didn’t tell all he knew. about the case.

SHOWDOWN ON EDC (Continued from Page One) Herald-Tribune, in Washington dis- patches, said that an eight-power conference probably will be held early in October if the French National Assembly rejects the EDC treaty. (Participants in the conference would be the United States, Britain, France, West Germany, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands and Lux- embourg. (U.S. officials and foreign diplo- mats. said the meeting had been proposed by some of the European Defense Community powers—not France—and was under considera- tion in Washington.) The half dozen ministers support- ing EDC had been under pressure from powerful political forces to resign at once. These factions were angered by Mendes-France’s failure te work actively to put the EDC treaty across in the Assembly. A series of secret huddles was held last night, but no final decisions were taken. More buzzing back and forth was certain today. Anti-EDC Leaders Three anti-EDC ministers, all followers of Gen. Charles de Gaulle, resigned two weeks ago after Mendes-France drew up his revised. version of EDC which the five other European army nations later turned down at their Brussels conference. Mendes-France may ask for the resignation of all his ministers, with the date left blank for the Premier to fill in if he needs to use them. Through this device, the Premier would avoid an open Cabinet split on EDC and the ministers could vote individually according to their wills. Normally all members of the Cabinet vote as a body, but with this device the Premier would not have to reconstruct his Cab- inet until after the Assembly vote. A group of influential deputies who favor EDC met last night to discuss the possibility of putting off the vote until more favorable off the vote untip more favorable conditions for its passage could be created. Mendes-France has strongly op- posed any delay, arguing that France already has made too many enemies with laggard tac- tics. Of the six prospective mem- bers, only Italy and France have not ratified the treaty. Despite his eagerness to get the debate going, the Premier has been unwilling to back EDC. to the ex- tent of making it the subject of a confidence vote in the Assembly.
