Puerto Ricans See
Growing Opportunity
For independence
Cuban or Philippine
Plon Seems Preferable
To Nationalist Group
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SAN JUAN.-In current maneu-
vers both on the insular and ma
tlonal scene, a large segment of
Puerto Rican opinion, mostly within
the dominant Popular Party, sees
an opportunity sfor attaining the
long cherished dream Of indepen-
dence for the island.
While the immediate goal Is a
plebiscite in which Puerto Ricans
would be asked to state their pref
erences for statehood, common
wealth or independence, most Pop
ulares believe such vote would
show a majority for either COM
monwealth or outright freedom.
The pro-statehood coalition par
ties would have economics on their
side because astute Puerto Ricans
realize the island depends greatly
If not totally on American good
will to market the isles cash crop
sugar. But the nationalistic pro-
ponents of independence are con-
vinced the emotional appeal OF
liberty and freedom would be ir-
resistible.
Something on the Cuban or Phil
ippines model perhaps would please
this sector most-Divorce with ali
mony, and accent on the latter.
Havana Cultural Capital.
For the average Puerto Ricar
looks to Hayana as his cultura.
capital Only the descendants OF
old Spanish families. few in number
though still great in financial power
look to Madrid.
Cuban music and dances are the
widespread form of recreation and
amusement. Entertainers are i'm
ported from Havana, not Miami
The average Puerto Rican refers tc
continental Americans as "Ameri-
canos' while natives are Puerto
orriquenos. When you order cof-
fee in restaurant, you must tell
the waiter whether you want the
weak cafe Americana" or the
strong, black "cafe Puertorriqueno

Link Between Americas.
Various clubs and casinos have
their respective queens, and the
climax of their social year comes
when some pretty senorita in a
sequin- studded gown receives a
crown and is proclaimed queen of
this or that. At one such corona
ton dance recently. various queens
were introduced. All received po-
lite applause. But the ovation for
Senorita Puerto Rico carrying the
islands emblem was tremendous

others.
These are perhaps petty things.
but they indicate the feeling among
large section of Puerto Rico's
social and cultural leaders who
could. If they tried, become a link
between the two Americas, and do
much to explain the customs of
one to the other and thus promote
IA more solid pan-AmericaniSrn.

Maryland Flyer Falls Unconscious From Plane;
angle With Another Flyers 'Chute Saves Life

Mr. Elwell leaped and pulled the
ripcord of his parachute, which
opened. AS Ensign Gibson jumped
he was struck by a stabilizer and
knocked unconscious.
Apparently he had pulled the rip
cord because a part of his parachute
came out of the pack.
Plummeting downward, he almost
struck Mr.. Elwell's opened para
chute. The lines of his parachute
became intangled with the shrouds
of the open chute.
The two men floated the rest OF
the way to the water, Ensign Gibson
dangling unconscious like a pendu-
lum.
Once in the water, Mr.. Elwell
managed to keep Ensign Gibson's
head above the surface.

solution" it added.
OF the relaxing of wartime con-
trolls the chamber said:
AT wars end there will be great
demand for the relaxation of ra-
tioning, price control and for the
re-establishment of a free market.
While we must not allow the war
experience to set pattern for a
postwar regimentation, serious con-
sideration must be given to timing
the relaxation Of controls so that
postwar boom will not spend
itself in a few months of wild infa-
ton"
