Is Suspended
For 'P olitics' :

George Dean, a Key West po-
lice officer, was suspended this
morning by Police Chief Louis
Eisner for three days, effective
today. Dean was the third officer
to be suspended here this week.

in violation of rules laid down
by the city administration for
the conduct of its employees.
Chief Eisner also announced
that he had limited the Suspen-
sions of Patrolmen Carl Ingra-
ham and Eugene Hernandez to
five days. The officers were sus-
pended Tuesday after they had
conducted gambling raids with

Their suspensions, which was
reported to the Civil Service
board, was limited because, the
chief explained, it was the Off

How many convicts have been

Guards and marines were at
first handicapped in the assaults
