Seelba Announces Cabinet Decision On Pact With Yugoslavia For Division Of Trieste ROME () — Italian Premie: Mario Scelba formally announced to his Cabinet today that agree- ment finally had been reached with Yugoslavia on a division of ‘the Trieste ‘free territory. Initialing of the long-awaited ac- cord was scheduled in London la- ter today. Scelba called it for Italy.” “Iam very -happy,” he said. “Finally we are going back into Trieste.” Settlement of the bitter nine- year dispute between the two Adriatic Sea neighbors is expected to ease the task of welding the de- fense line across southeastern Eu- rope against possible Communist aggression. Immediately after signing of the agreement by the British ahd Yu- goslav ambassadors in London, Scelba planned to present it to the Italian Parliament and demand a vote of confidence on it. Under the agreement, virtually all Zone A of the strategic terri- tory at the head of the Adriatic Sea goes to Italy. This zone, which includes the port city of Trieste, has been occupied jointly by U.S. and British troops since World War II. Yugoslavia gets Zone B, the hin- terland area which Yugoslav forces have held since they marched into Trieste in 1945, as well as several pockets in Zone A along the southern boundary which are populated mostly by Yugoslavs. The 4,000 American and 3,000 British troops garrisoning Zone A are expected to pull out shortly, making way for Italian troops. Both Italy and Yugoslavia had long demanded all the territory. The dispute led to numerous bor- der incidents, and relations be- tween the two countries deteri- orated seriously. The settlement was reached in London after lengthy negotiations among Italy, Yugoslavia, the Unit- ed States and Britain. London and Washington have been prodding Rome and Belgrade for some time to end the dispute, which has Blocked Western efforts to close their defense chain across south Europe. : The agrecment is expected to smooth the way for Italy's partici- pation in the Balkans antiaggres- sion alliance signed in August by Yugoslavia, Greece and Turkey. Officially, the agreement is classed as a provisional set- tlement. This is to help Scelba se- cure the Italian Parliament’s ap- proval. The United States and Bri- tain, however, consider the divi- sion of the territory in reality a permanent one. St Most of the’ 300,000 inhabitants in the 86-square-mile Zone .A took the advance news of the settlement, calmly, ; Some tension was reported ‘in the small areas slated to go to Yugoslavia. About 3,000 persons live in those sections. Some. of. Italian descent already are selling their holdings and moving into the Italian zone, Yugoslavia received the biggest hunk of territory — 199 square miles of sparse hillsides, sheep grazing land and vineyards. Its 73,000 inhabitants are largely peas- ants of Yugoslav origin. Belgrade also gained special port rights in Trieste city and protection for its minority living there. The area given to Italy contains the bulk of the territory’s popula- tion — 302,000 persons. The’ city of Trieste, a major port since the 18th century when it was part of the Austro - Hungarian Empire, has about 280,000 residents. Italy won the whole of the Istrian Peninsula, including the Trieste territory, from. Austria at the close of World War I and lost it during World War II, For 40 tense days in 1945, it was occupied by ‘Yugoslav partisans. Then an Allied military government was set up. The free territory was formally set up by the Italian Peace Treaty of 1947, which formalized the di- vision of the area into two occu- pation zones. Under the arrange- ment, a governor was to be ap- pointed by the United Nations, but the Russians and the West could not agree on a candidate. In 1948, before Yugoslavia’s Communist government broke with the Kremlin, the Allies an- nounced that both zones of Trieste should be returned to Italy. This idea was dropped after Yugo- slavia left the Cominform. In 1952, Italy was given a hand fr local administration of the Al- lied zone. “a great day STRONG ARM BRAND COFFES Triumph Coffee Mill at ALL GROCERS —_—_—_—<—<_$ Your Grocer SELLS That Good STAR * BRAND AMERICAN COFFEE =— TRY A POUND TODAY — —_..... A Page 8 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Tuesday, October 4, 1954 Jewish Congregation To Mark Yom Kippur Celebration Here Yom Kippur (day of atonement) will be observed by the B’nai Zion Congregation starting with the Kol Nidrah Services, Wednesday even- ing at 6:00 p. m. on October 6. The following morning the regular Yom Kippur services will begin at 8:00 a. m. The services will last all day, until at least 20 minutes after sunset. The usual Maskir Nashomos (memorial service) for the departed dear ones will take place around the noon hour. The services will be in charge of the Congregation’s religious and spiritual leader, Rabbi Abraham Schwartz, assisted by the Reverend Meyer Redlich from Miami Beach. There will also be a special ser- vice conducted for the youth in the social hall by local represen- tatives of the U. S. Navy. They are Harvey Hochwald and Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Kotinsky. This special service will be divided into two sessions, one starting at 10:00 a. m. and lasting until 12:00 noon, and the second session starting at 2:00 p. m. and lasting until 4:00 » Mm. Phe usual sounding of the Sho- far (the Rams Horn) will be done by Jack Appel of this city. Rabbi Schwartz is again pleased to inform Key Westers of the signi- ficance of the Yom Kippur religious aspects. He said today, “To begin with we start the Celebration by the méal before the fasting. This meal must be finished before sun set on Wednesday. The fasting starts at sunset and last for twenty- four hours. No food or drink may be taken in the mouth for this per- iod. It is also customary to be dressed in white, in order to ac- cept this solemn sacrifice in a cheerful mood, we must turn our- selves over entirely in our feelings and our thoughts to God. “It is said by the sages’ and our Rabbis and Prophets, that this day our sins or good deeds that have been counted and reckoned with-on the Rosh Hashonah, (New Years) day is looked over and if it has been found by God satisfactory and complying with the command of God, Gud demands additional prayers which we offer and addi- tional sacrifices with the offering of charity. This cleans us of all sins, and ‘@ good verdict is sealed by the almighty. ~~ , “Each individual’ is*supposed to make a total repentence on this Solemn day and each and every one takes upon himself not to com- mit any ‘sins. Each and every one makes a direct confession to God of all evils and mistakes which have been done during the past year. “We.make a promise,” the Rab- bi continued, “that this will not be repeated anymore. And the true love and kindness to our fellow man, as well as the true love to|. our Father in Heaven will from here on be our main objective, in this New Year, 5715. “Each and every one of us feel like a new person free and clear between man and God. Oh, what a wonderful feeling this is.” Rabbi Schwartz has expressed himself, and sincerely feels that this practice, this kind of a Yom Kippur Day, this kind of a cele- bration should be made universal to all people of the world. He said, “The entire universe should have a day of repentence, a day of Yom Kippur to seek for- giveness, just as we hav a Mother’s Day, a Father’s Day, etc, we should have a “God’s Command Day.” On this day all people can stop business, arguing, prejudices, jealousies, envy, selfishness, and stop looking for honors and special privileges, and think only of peace and happiness to all peoples regardless of race, nation- lity, creed or color. “The love to our fellow men and the love to our God should be our slogan in deed and in practice. We should declare ourselves on this God’s Commanding Day that all people are equal children to our God in Heaven. Then genuine peace of mind will make us all happy. Let us hope and pray that this will happen in the near, future in all mankind.” had Rabbi Schwartz and the B’nai Zion Congregation wishes the ci- tizens of Key West and all people of the universe a continuous Happy New Year Year.

Navy Will Go All-Out To Back Chest Drive Martin, Lewis Are Terrific in Golf Film Be prepared for some wonderful rollicking entertainment, for Dean inimitable gentiemen of uproarious comedy are due back in town. The new picture that they so richly en- dow is “The Caddy,” Paramount’s brand new laugh sensation, opening Thursday at the Monroe Theatre. “The Caddy” is a complete delight and is the best Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis entry to date. Containing several lavish produc. tion numbers, gorgeous girls and, of course, punctuated with loads of rib-tickling incidents, “The Cad- dy” follows the adventures of two young men who would rather play golf than work for a living. The pair of gents are, who else, Dean and Jerry. The latter is the super- ior golfer but he falls to pieces every time he appears before a gallery. The solution to this dilemma is arrived at when he trains Dean and relegates himself to the role of caddy. In no time at all Dean becomes a top - notch professional and the darling of the country club set. This success goes to his head and causes dissent with Jerry, but Development Squadron One has been appointed director of publi- city to direct and coordinate pub- licity for the campaign through the Public Information Office at the Naval Base.
