The adoption of a resolution or ordinance by the city commission to legally establish a Civil Defense organization as provided for by Florida statutes was urged at a meeting of the local committee for organization of Civil Defense at a meeting held at the City Hall on Monday night.

Accompanied by her husband, the second secretary of the Amer. ican Embassy, Mrs. Sommerlatte bearded a Russian plane enroute to New York. U.S. Ambassador Charles E. Bohlen and other top embassy of ficials saw them off, as did rep resentatives of many other West- ern and Asian embassies. Mrs Sommeriatte showed no visible re gret at her departure. The Russians had accused her Oct. 25 over where to take pictures of some Russian children. Mrs. Houston Stiff, wife of the assistant U.S. naval attache, said she actu ally hit the workman in an effort to free Mrs. Sommeriatte. The Soviet Foreign Ministry asked that Mrs. Sommeriatte leave the country and was adamant to strong representations by Bohlen. The State Department said the So- viet secret police had illegally de tained the two embassy wives and subjected them to personal indig. nities.” Sommeriatte has been given a new assignment in Washington.
