Detective Carl Parker hes solved his most important case — one that gave his wife the “nicest Christmas present anybody ever had.” He has brought Mrs. Doris Jean Parker together with a sister she never had seen, and word of a family she never knew. The 21-year-old woman and her sister Miss Nancy Carol Peek, 19, met for the first time last week at the Parker home here. Until then, the detective’s wife didn’t even know her maiden name. | Her earliest memory had been of her foster mother Mrs. Beulah Stahl, who took her from a chil- dren’s home as an infant. Doris Jean lived with Mrs. Stahl Herald for three consecutive Sun- | days. * According to Edie Moffat, Arch Hunt and Ralph Goberna, the Chamber’s advertising committee, more advertising will be released from time to time during the win- er but plans call for a concentra- | tion of promotion during the Spring and Summer months this year.

The years passed, with Doris Jean moving on to a third orphan- age, where she remained until she ; married at 16. When that marriage | ended in divorce, Doris Jean came here to live with Mrs. Stahl. Last year she met Parker and married him. On his wife’s 21st birthday, the detective tackled the problem, us- ing his experience as a policeman assigned to the crime prevention bureau, which locates missing per- sons. Mel Levitt, chairman of the Ho-| tel - Motel men, has stated that those firms in the tourist accom- modations business, county - wide, | should get to know the county ad-! vertising commissioners better and both groups would work together in promoting the Florida Keys as a vacation area to the best possi- ble advantage. | Priest, Movie | Actress Plead For Prisoner TALLAHASSEE ®—A New Jer- sey priest and a Hollywood movie actress pleaded with the Cabinet | Pardon Board yesterday for the | life of John McVeigh, sentenced | to die for killing a Jacksonville | policeman on Christmas Eve two yeats ago. The board took no immediate | action, Secretary of State Gray said be wanted a day or so to| consider the appeal for clemency | and other board members agreed. | The priest, the Rev. Sylvester MeVeigh of Newark, N.J., uncle of the condemned man, said he| had been abnormal all his life and | the policeman who was shot might | as well have got in a car with a “rattlesnake or a tiger’ as to have attempted to ride with the pris- oner to the police station. McVeigh shot the policeman, Robert Q. Tucker, as the patrol. | man was taking-him to the station | after arresting him for reckless driving. The actress, known profession- ally as Margaret Eubanks, is Mc- Veigh’s wife. She said her husband was given to moods and suffered | from frightful nightmarés as a re-| sult of combat service with the | paratroopers in World War II. | McVeigh’s attorney, Zach Doug. | las of Jacksonville, said his client had become a drug addict after | being given morphine to ease the | pain of war wounds and was under the influence of narcoties when he committed the crime. State Atty. William A. Hallowes ot Jacksonville, opposing clem. | éney, said MeVeigh had a long criminal record and was mentally | resy»onsible when the killing took plaae. Bath the State and U.S. Supreme Courts have refused to interfere | with the death sentence. The fam- | ily seks a commutation to life impris ment. Temperatures “Under such circumstances, bio- logical warfare agents offer a weapon which can add measurably to war’s impact on the civilian population.” It w@ild be a mistake to assume “this unscrupulous enemy” would begin a war by using any single weapon, Creasy cautions, appar- ently referring to frequently ex- pressed fears that Russia would open fire with a nuclear weapon | attack. Stressing that he holds “no brief for war, for all war is immoral and inhuman,” Creasy writes: .“But in the case of war, to deny American troops at home and abroad the use of weapons which can overcome the enemy with the least possible expenditure of Amer- ican lives would be an act of bar- barism against our own people.” Creasy calls ‘biological warfare a potential weapon whose capabili- | ties have not been tested and can- not be determined unless tried in actual war. TODAY'S STOCK MARKET NEW YORK ® — The stock market was mixed today in early dealings. Most changes were small, but gains ran to around 2 points at the outside. Losses were fractional. Almost all major divisions were mixed. Motors were unchanged to lower. Oils were higher on balance. There wére a great many large blocks on the tape at the start, and for a brief time the tape was unable to keep pace with floor transactions. Benguet Consolidated Mining, yesterday’s most active issue up \%, opened today on 13,000 shares unchanged at 1%. Among other blocks were Re- public Steel 3,500 shares up 1% at 73%, Baldwin-Lima-Hamilton 7,200 up % at 13, General Motors 1,000 off %% at 96%, New York Central 1,500 off “% at 31'2, and Pan American World Airways 3,100 up % at 19%.
