‘Tuesday, October 5, 1954 “THE KEY WEST citizen “Page 8 New Motion Picture Based On Life Of John Wesley Due Here Wiley Thinks Senate Should OK Pact Soon By JOE HALL WASHINGTON — Sen. Wiley (R-Wis) ‘said today he thinks the Senate would quickly approve the new, nine-power agreement to .re- arm West Germany if the admin- istration should submit it at next month’s session. Wiley, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said in-an interview he had not dis- cussed the question with Secretary of State Dulles but that he thought the administration might seek ear- ly Senate action to give the whole plan added impetus in Europe. “We would be glad to get it,” he ‘said. “‘My view is that the agreement substantially meets the desires of the Senate.” The agreement worked out in London to restore West Germany’s sovereignty and permit her to re- arm involves a complicated series of tréaties and revisions to exist- ing treaties. The Senate presumably will be asked, diplomatic sources ‘said, 'to give its-consent to the entry. of West Germany into the North At- lantic Treaty Organization. It may also have*to. pass-on a rearrange~ ment of) relations between Ger- many ‘and the present occupying powers, the United States, Britain and France. Other portions of the acueret probably will call for a only by European par- liaments. ‘The-Senate is on notice to meet Nov.-8 to consider a move to cen- ‘sure Sen. McCarthy (R-Wis) for certain’ aspects of his official con- duet. The session is not limited to that subject, however. ; Diplomatic observers, mea n- while, said the greatest immediate effect of the London agreement on West, Germans probably will be assurance that the large measure of freedom: they already enjoy is theirs. to keep. Most limitations on sovereignty that could press on the lives of ordinary Germans already have been relaxed, formally or infor- mally. This is why, observers said, the principal immediate German effects of the London agreement may be largely psychological. —— | ae The public is invited to the first showing in Key West of the new Motion picture, “John Wesley,” at Ley Memorial Church next Sunday. The picture will be shown at 7:30 and 9:00 p. m., according to the pastor, Reyerend Eldon Sim- mons. The feature - length film is in the new Eastman color and was Produced by the Radio and Film Commission of The Methodist Church in cooperation’ with J. Ar- thur Rank. _It. brings to the screen for the first time the dynamic and color- ful 18th century evangelist and ed- ucator, John Wesley’s miraculous rescue from a burning house at the age of five, at the beginning of the film, forecasts: the dramatic and eventful life which unfolds in this story of a man of slight stature but of impelling influence upon his contemporaries. and upon history. _The English clergyman thought his venture in Americ: a mis- sionary to the Indians in the Geor- gia colony was a failure, but it was the kind of failure which open- ed the door to the discovery of a religious certainty he had -been seeking, Furthermore, this ‘discovery, in which John Wesley felt: his “‘heart strangely warmed,” led him to face mobs unafraid, and to ride 250,- 000 miles on horseback, changing the masses of English people from a low state of moral degradation to sturdy and happy uprightness. His “enthusiasm” was. frowned upon by the lethargic leaders of the Church of England of that day, but it was this new-found enthu- siasm which enabled him to. in- fluence so many phases of the life of English - speaking péoples. His appeal to the common man, his establishment of schools, clin- ics, lay praching and societies — finally his sending of supervisors for the movement in the.new world after the American Revolution — all these make the film one which will be long remembered. Hold-up Try Foiled By Cabbie FULLERTON, Md. #—Two.wo- men, one packing a pistol and the other a knife, were foiled in a hold- up attempt last night by a 35-year- old taxigab driver. Joseph Laderman told Baltimore County police that the women an- nounced their holdup after a short ride from Baltimore City, Lader- ™man slammed on his brakes, dump- ing his passengers on the floor. Then he pulled the woman. with the gun out of. the vehicle, and punched her in the eye. Charlotte Davis, 26, and Margar- | bricks et Davis, 28, both of Baltimore, were charged with armed robbery and carrying concealed weapons, TV PARTY SPOILED BY TOY POODLE, ...

His parents, Mr. and Mrs. Char- les G. Mendoza, 4-F Porter Place, have been told that it is a heredi- tary disease, inherited from some remote ancestor. Timmy is not bedfast, but the affliction is taking its toll of his strength now, and the parents fear that it is only a matter of time before it will claim the child’s life. Mr. and Mrs. Mendoza, who are the parents of three other boys, all in excellent health, have de- cided to publicize Timmy’s plight in the hope of discovering success- ful therapy for him. They hope that there is a doctor somewhere who has successfully treated the disease, with whom ‘they can be placed in eontact for the sake of their son. Soviet Needs A Good Old Love Song MOSCOW (#—One of the things the Soviet Union appears to need is a good June-moon-spoon love song. Even ardent Communists now ad- mit ‘that youth here can’t get a “cardial feeling” (heart beat, thi means)'‘on’ song lyrics sounding like: thi +. And this conveyor method means faster building.” How’d you like to swing and sway your baby to that? The inadequacy of Soviet popu- lar songs recently got a going- over in Komsomol Pravda, offi- cial newspaper of the Communist Youth League. It says that this business of singing a love song to a tractor underneath the harvest moon is off key. A. Bocharov, who signed this article in Komsomol Pravda, has his say under the title “The Poet and the Song”: “Song and youth are inseparable but during recent times there not been written a song which could unite the heroics of our mod- ern labor, and the romantics of young dreams and the sincerity of cardial feelings. , . . % “But we have felt the need for a song which could resound with the same: success at a meeting, at a Communist party demonstra- tion, at a table among friends, even when a person is in solitude. .. .” Bocharov goes on to cite a song which in his opinion does not fill the bill. It is called “Young Cit. ies” and this is the one about the motors roaring, conveyor belts carrying up bricks, etc. He demands: “Does the man who wrote this song seriously think that youth will sing it?” Lanza Seeks To Prove He Still Has His Power HOLLYWOOD w—Mario Lan- za in a private concert to calm the critics has shown all his old vocal power and promised that all future TV appearances will be live. “I may even stick my finger down my throat during a couple of numbers to let the public know that there are —o recordings,” the ten- or added yesterday after singing from “TI Pagliacci” and the ible “Be My Love” for as- sembled newsmen and women, Why were two-year-old record- ings dubbed in on his TV debut last Thursday? Because of . all those medical tests, said Lanza, while he was taking off 40 pounds in six weeks. “They dehydrated me,” he said. “They lowered my blood sugar. And my doctor said he would not be ible for how I would re- Nixon Reveals Ike's Plan To Make Important Speech OMAHA —Vice President Nix- on has disclosed President Eisen- hower probably will make a major campaign speech from somewhere in the. Washington, D.C., area about Oct. 20. Nixon made the statement to re- porters last night at a press con- ference here in which he said vig- orous political speeches—he point- ed to Eisenhower’s recent Holly- wood Bowl address as “‘exactly right”—are the “‘proper role for the President” in the campaign. House Republican Leader Charles A. Halleck Sunday said he hoped the President would make more “fighting” campaign talks. Nixon, asked to comment on Halleck’s statement, noted that Ei- senhower will make a television address from Denver Friday, an election eve address Nov. 1 and probably a third major campaign speech “around the 20th” of this month. Nixon said he is to intro- duce the President on TV Friday night. Nixon was asked if his statement that Communists, fellow travelers and security risks are being kicked out of the government by. the thou- sands was based on a report by Chairman Philip Young of the Civil Service Commission last March. » He said the statement, repeated paneer times during his current political barnstorming, was partly based on the Young report. Young had said 2,429 persons were fired of left government jobs between May 1953 and the end of that year. He said 422 of them’ were for subversive reasons. Nixon said that report was in- complete and went only to Decem- beer 1953, and that “great num- bers of security risks” had left the government since.
