Page 8 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Gutter Fight . Charge Laid» ToGOP InN.Y. _ ROCHESTER, N.Y. (#—Backers of, Averell Harriman, campaigning upstate today, say -what, they termed GOP prompted the Democratic-Liberal candidate‘ for governor to. with- draw from a planned debate with his Republican rival. Harriman, making no new direct reply to GOP efforts to link him with a 25-year-old pier lease scan- dal, yesterday called off his part in an hour-tong debate scheduled for a statewide television hookup Oct. 27. The Democrats said Sen. Irving M. Ives, the Republican’ candidate for governor, had agreed tenta- tively to discuss general campaign issues in a program sponsored by the Citizens Union of New’ York City. Charles M. Metzner, Republican state campaign manager, said in New York that Harriman is trying to “duck a cross-examination” on the pier scandal and “may also want to avoid discussion of a num- ber of other matters about Mr. Harriman that Sen. Ives will bring to the attention of the people.” In Washington, Sen. William Langer (R-ND) said last night that in 1951 he personally investigated the pier deal’ charges and “I found there was nothing to it as far as Harriman was concerned.” Langer added that “I did find that such an incident had occurred.” Harriman had no com- ment on the debate issue, John P. McGrath, Democratic’ state cam- paign mahager, said he was rep- resenting Harriman’s views when he told a news conference in New York City: “Such a debate could serve no constructive purpose because Ives’ cam has deteriorated into a “gutter fighting” | + Uneasy Lull [Settles In UN UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. w — An uneasy lull settled over the U.N. disarmament debate today as delegates awaited results of secret | resume big power talks on the | crucial issue. { Russia’s Andrei Vishinsky and | -S.

The Canadians, representing the Western Big Three in the secret negotiations, are reportedly trying to get Vishinsky to agree to a substitute amendment which would call on the subcommittee to con- sider all arms proposals.

Agent Walter . Thornton’s ¢om- plaint,- filed yesterday, said Patri- cia Van Iver, who later took the | bor. professional name of Dolores Don- lon, signed a contract with him in 1945 in which he agreed to pay her $200 a month and was to te- ceive in return 20 per cent of her earnings as an actress and model. Thornton said she disappeared in 1946 and not until he’saw her picture on the billboard advertis« ing a recent film did he Jocate her, She is now the wife of Vie tor Orsatti, Hollywood actor’s agent. Thornton asks $20,000 which he says he spent promoting his client Dock Workers Get Ultimatum LONDON (#—The government to- day warned Britain’s 44,000 strik- ing dock workers to return to work by Monday morning or troops will move into the waterfront.

Nicholas Malesky, president of the Bella Co., a hosiery «dyeing and finishing firm, said yesterday “the labor situation in the North‘ is more favorable than it has been for many years. More prospective employes are again available,” In bucking a long-time trend in the textile industry, Malesky de- clared that “‘the adyaptages ob- tained by move to the*South are gradually disappearing.” He added that, by moving North, “the com- pany is closer to the markets.” Malesky, of Stowe, Pa., moved his company to Mount Pleasant, Tenn., several years ago from its original site in this area. He will relocate in the former Gold Seal ho- siery mills here, ‘ Intruder Falls Through Ceiling TULSA, Okla.

An ‘undefined bat brighter atmosphere” was reported yesterday at a government board of inquiry into the situation. There were rumors the board might pre- sent some approach for settlement. ‘A private .session with employer and union heads was scheduled to- day. A demand by dock workers for right to reject overtime work touched off the strike. Archbishop Says Press Is Leading Influence Today LONDON # — Newspapers still set the pace for creating and in- fluencing public opinion, Dr.’ Cyril Garhett, archbishop of York, says. The Press, he says, leaves a deeper impression than either radio or television. “TL sometimes hear that the press no longer has the influence it once Possessed,” he recently told the Royal Commission on the Press. “Tam doubtful about this. The written word makes a deeper im- pression on the mind than what is heard.” . Garbett, Britain’s second ranking Anglicen churekman, ex- plained: “The wireless (radio) is listened to by millions, but only a minority are trained listeners who could re- port accurately or give even an intelligible account of what they eae heard only two hours previ- ously. “What is printed makes a far deeper impresion, The written word which can be read and re- Tead at leisure helps to form the opinion of the more intelligent citi- zens who will become leaders in their locality or in the nation.” And, he added, “I ‘am afrad that too much television gazing will |leave only superficial and fleeting ‘ impressions,” sportsmanlike for the state to use information from federal gambling stamp records to “entrap and con- viet” gamblers. The court ruled purchase of a federal gambling stamp cannot be used by itself to padlock the prem- ises listed in the stamp application as a publie nuisance. The ruling, by Justice Glenn Terrell, threw out an injunction issued by Dade County Circuit Judge Marshall C. Wiseheart pad- locking several establishments for which James Boynton had obtained federal gambling stamps. Boynton appealed to the Supreme Court on the ground the state was forcing him to incriminate himself unconstitutionally in using. pur- chase of the gambling stamp as the sole evidence for declaring his establishments nuisances, No Actual Evidence He contended the state had no actual evidence that he was con- ducting lottery operations. Justice Terrell said the state had relied on fact that defendants pur- chasing federal gambling stamps listed the places where they pro- posed to conduct gambling activi- ties and paid the excise tax re quired by federal law to prove they were engaged in lottery and bookmaking activities which Flor- ida law declared to be a nuisance. In throwing out the padlocking order, Justice Terrell said “the state proposes to use the evidence of the gambler’s right to exploit his trade which he was required to file with the internal revenue de- partment on which to convict him. “The gambler had the same right to invoke the protection of the bill of rights that the Commu- nists, the lawyer, the teacher and the preacher has but it is contrary to every principle of fair play and sportsmanship for the sovereigniy to exact a cut from the gambler’s take and then use the evidence he is required to file with which ‘o entrap and convict him. ... “I do not think the state can ground its case on the mere fact | that defendants have purchased a gambling stamp and paid the ex- icise tax shown.” x 88 « load SR Staff Photos, Don Pinder.
