Handled Four Ma jor Issues.
In clearing the Levant case from
| its agenda, the Council ended three
weeks work in which it handled foul
major international political issues
First was the Iranian case, in
which the Council agreed to allow
Russia and Iran to settle their dis
agreements over Azerbaijan by di-
rect negotiations.
Second was the Greek case, in
which at one point Russia threaten
ed to invoke the veto. The Council
however, got over this hurdle with a
noncommittal declaration on the
presence of British troops in Greece
Then the Council threw out So
Wet Ukraine's charges that British
forces in Indonesia were threat
to international peace and security
The Council decided to convoke
the Military Staff Committee one
week before the March Council
meeting to study procedural mat

During the day Mr.. Vishinsky
saying he was acting on behalf of
the Yugoslav government, filed a
memorandum with the United Ma
tions Secretary General Trygve Lie
which declared the Polish troops
were "a possible threat to the peace,
calm and order" on the Yugoslay-
Italian frontier.
No Request for Council Action.
The memorandum asserted the
Polish troops of Gen. Wladyslaw
Anders were aggressive and os-
tensibly threatening.
Neither Russia nor Yugoslavia
asked for Council action, but merely
that members be familiarized with
contents of the memorandum.
The Polish government, in a note
handed to the British yesterday
demanded that the British demobi-
lize the lot 900 Polish troops in
Italy and send them back to Po-
land. The. British said negotia-
tions were under way for return
of Polish troops, both in England
and Italy, to their homeland.

Accusations, denials, counter
charges and still more denials
were hurled with apparent aban-
don yesterday afternoon as the
Civil Service commission aired
charges against four discharged
Key West police officers at a
public hearing in the city hall
late yesterday.
The charges against the Off
leers, fired June IS by City Man
Iager Dave King, included whiS-
key drinking, attending cock
fights, intoxication while on
duty, leaving their posts and con-
sorting with women.
The hearing was enlivened
when the wife of one of the
officers was summoned to testi-
fY in his behalf.
All four of the suspended Off
GERS, Eugene Hernandez, John
Nelson, Carl 1ngraham, and Geo
rye Gutierrez, denied the charges.
Following the two-hour hear
ing, the Civil Service board an
nounced that it would defer its
decision pending a review Of the
testimony.
Ralph Sierra. chairman of
the board. said decision an
aouncing the fates of the de-
posed officers would be forth
! coming shortly th'
The hearing opened with the
reading of charges against Patrol
man Hernandez and from them on
neither side pulled its punches.
Hernandez was charged with
buying $14.95 regulation police
shirt from a Miami store and
Illegally presenting a bill for this
amount to the city. Hernandez,
who said he bought the shirt to
replace one torn off him while
making an arrest, said the purch-
ase had been approved by coun-
ell, that he paid for the shirt out
of his own money and had not
yet been Reimbursed.
Another charge against Her
nandez accused him of leaving
his post the night of May 81 to
enter a place at $40 Fleming
street for a drink. The former
officer said he drank a soft"
drink in the place. Police Chief
Eisner told the charge was that
the officer left Shis post in de
fianee of strict orders and that
the question of whether or not
he had a drink of whisky was be-
side the point.
On May 30, another charge as

county and should, therefore, pay
more to the city than to the coun-
ty. He pointed out that mainten-
ance and operation of the fire
department alone costs many
thousands of dollars annually.
THE chief thing about the
new roll" he concluded, lis that
everybody is put on an equal
basis, so far as could be deter
mined, which means that every
property owner in the city will
pay his fair part of the taxes"

ACQUIRES PROPERTY
FROM THOMPSON EN-

Consideration, of Rest Beach, as
one of the proposed sites for the
beach that Monroe county will
build in the event that the SUI
preme court approves the valida-
ton proceedings of the bond cleo
ton held December /, to raise
$250,000, apparently has gone
a-glimming by its sale by Nor
berg Thompson and A. Maitland
Adams, of Thompson Enterprises,
Inc, to the Key West Develop
ment Co, for $4,000.
Five weeks ago The Citizen
reported that the Thompson
Enterprises had a buyer for
Rest Beach for $4,000. but
that the sale depended on zon-
ing regulations in that Sec
ton. which would permit the
erection of hotels. pavilions
and apartment houses. Uncon-
firmed reports said further
that it was the intention of
the buyer TO construct two
large apartment houses and a
hotel on Rest Beach.

struction of the proposed beach
Sentiment among proponents
of the beach proposal seemed to

as there was a beach for many
years along the line of the boule-
ward, it was feasible to construct
another beach there by building
ietties to force sand toward the
shoreline.

serted, Hernandez was seen COM
ing from liquor place on Smith
lane. This the officer denied. but
Chief Eisner informed the board
that he saw the officer coming
from the place, questioned the
bar tender and that the barten-
der told the chief that Hernandez
might have had drink.
Most emphatic denial of the
charges were made by Patrolman
John Nelson, w,.o was accused of
being drunk while on duty.
Nelson. who is married and
the father of three children.
was charged with having re-
ported for duty as night iailer
May 10 in an intoxicated con-
/ dition. Chief Eisner said when
{ he was informed of Nelson's
alleged condition. he sent him
home.
Instead of suspending Offices
Nelson on the spot, ! sent him
home out of the kindness of my
heart, Chief Eisner told the lin
IvestigatorS. Nelson said he was
not drunk, but suffering with a
headache, and accused other Off
GERS on the force of being drunk
on duty Vat various times. Lieut..
Kemp also testified that Nelson
was drunk.
Accused of having been seen
coming from the side door of a
barroom on lower Duval street
on the night of June 10, Patrol
man Carl Ingraham said he was
not there for a drink, but was
investigating a gambling tip. The
officer raided an alleged gambl-
ing place in a room above the
saloon week before.
Chief Eisner said his investiga-
ton of Ingraham's activities on
the night in question led him to a
bar-maid in the saloon.
After an attempt at coyness
and a series of giggles, the girl
finally told me the officer came
in to see her." the chief told the
civil service board. The chief said
he asked the girl if Ingraham had
a drink while in the place.
Wouldn't you like to know"
the chief quoted the girl as reply
ing.
The spectators sat up in their
chairs when Ingraham's wife
was called to testify in his be-
half on charges that the officer
called the city patrol wagon
and took his wife to Jail when
she refused TO leave a cafe and
go home on the night of June 2.
Mrs. Igraham admitted she was
drinking quite a Bit in a cafe,
and that her husband threatened
to call the wagon" if she did not
quiet down and go home. When
she refused to do this. the testi-
mony revealed, the officer sum-
