PAPPY oDANIEL SAYS NO

It may never happen again but almost complete unity was achieved nv Senate Democrats when the Senate voted on the creation of the special War Investigating Commit tee Of the 42 Democrats on hand fl voted against the special com rittee Texas pass the biscuits pappy O'Daniel was the lone nav erick.
 No one has yet figured out any reason for O'Daniels perversity other than pure cussedness. Several of his colleague knew in advance he would bolt and Senators Byrd Of Virginia, Russell of Georgia, Maybank of South Carolina, did their best to djssuade him.
 Failing, they asked him to ac- cept a pair with Senator Overton of Louisiana who had been called home by family illness. Pappy, how ever, refused.
 During the vote Republican Sen ator Clyde Reed Of Kansas took the floor to announce that he has a general pairing with Senator Wagner of New York and that he felt bound to honor it, but O'Dan- l,l was noC wiling to reconsider ard accept pair with Overton.
 After Pappy had voted, and while he still had time to change, Sena- tors Hatch of New Mexico, East land of Mississippi and Ellender of Louisiana remoNstrated with him. Behind ODaniel stood minority secretary Les Riffle jabbing him in the back. A smile frozen on his face, the Texan kept saying no.

 There was some damage to the interior of the boat, but the engine was not touthed The fire was con- fined mostly to the area around the bunk.
 Sunday at 12 noon a 3-3 alarm was put in for the Thompson apartments on Second street be- tween Gold and Harris. There was no fire, just a lot of smoke from burning out excess oil in the fur mace. The alarm had been turned in by someone in a neighboring house up the hill who had seen the smoke, and hadn't stopped to inves tigate.

gL IVA LIGHT BROOKLYN?

Et HL IVA LIGHT BROOKLYN? Senator Warren Magnuson of ashngton male a startling pre- ctioa recently when he indicated at electric power from the Ten cssee Valley might be used in washington, Philadelphia or New K.
 Magnrson, WHO urges more
 lnmsnt power projects, espe-
 in the Northwest, told Tru-
 that electric energy from these elects soon could be distributed B over the country.
 The ability to transmit hydro electric power scientifically and hesply at greet distances is fast tscC-ing reality" said the Wash g5cn Senator Its a question of rogress that has to be met and
 should begin laying the ground TX now for our battles in Con- sss,' he added
 Chief reason for the limiting of over distribution by sections, such the Tennessee Valley, Magnuson explained was the cost factor. At present., the construction of booster tions to transmit power from q project like IVA is expensive and makes the cost If long-range trans mission prohibitive.
 However, we are in position where We can lick this problem trough scientific improvements in the booster system" Magnuson con- tinued Tt won's be very long until we are able to distribute power over great distances at relatively cheap rates to consumers.
 Tn other words, hydroelectric power is fast growing out of it's sectional pants and we've got to begin thinking of legislating some national trousers for it."
 You don't have to sell me on that" replied Truman T am aware that this question Of power distri- button is one of the most vital pro- blems we have got to face. It would only be false economy for us to overlook the potentialities Of our hydroelectric resources.
 We have only begun to harness them for the good of the whole country" the President added.
 Both men agreed it was Federal ob; that the construction of addi- ional dams ard booster networks vas too pig and costly for private indas'ry. However, they also agreed that power trust opposition in Con- ress would make the tumultuous tile over the IVA look like a GUS sideshoW.
 Well, I am convinced that we
 triple CT cuadruple the dis
 of power transmission from
 public hydroelectric projects
 greater cost to Government, "
 nuson tol6 the President lvsntually t will mean cheap power for consumers everywhere, not just in certain sections and am sure Q great many members cf Congress will support such a program"
 Truman promised to back Mag auson's fight for appropriations but iE remains to be seen if he is still

AAAAAXA

How would you like to have
q house complete with garage
and garden and yet have the
whole homestead cover but a few
square inches Of ground? Of
course, you would have. to be q
Lilliputian. to be able to get i'm
side the building or walk around
in the garden for only if you
were q person Of diminiutive pro-
portion would you; be able to get
around.
One might ask what is the .pur-
pose Of making the outfit so
small, as everyone, or nearly
everyone knows Lilliputians
dwell only in the imagination.
But when you intend to build
that regulation size home, what
would you give to know exactly
what ii will look like when COM
pleted? If you want to have a
good idea, the thing to do is to
60 to an agency that constructs
models of architectural triumphs
that are to be.
The other day we saw several
home sites laid out with the
streets, sidewalks, trees, houses,
landscaped gardens and every
detail all carried out in minia-
ture. We thought at first that
we were victim of some hallu-
cination and that we were a
giant looking at some develop
ment of real estate. But our host
who explained everything to us
assured us that we were normal
in every respect.
So we inquired about the per-
son who constructed all this and
we found that while he is now
in Miami in business; he was a
Key West boy who had been
transplanted by the war and it's
vicissitudes to the Miami area
via the U. S. Coast Guard.
Our host turned out to be jeff
erson L. Browne, son of Mrs.
Madeline L. Brown of 404 South
Street, this city, and grandson of
the late Jefferson B. Browne, Key
Vests foremost historian.
Browne said that much credit be-
longs to his attractive wife Claire
a former SPAR and to his part
ner in business, Sam 'Mumford,
also former member of the
Coast Guard. and his wife.
jeff, Browne and Sam Num-
ford became friends in the Coast
Guard and. both having worked
as architectural craftsmen be-
fore entering the service, decided
to start this Architectural Model
Service about a year ago.
These scale models are built to
architects or contractors specifi-
cations and every part of the
construction must be to exact
scale with the plans.
While model home building is
common in the North, this is the
only firm of its kind in the South,
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1947-04-11

on the scale of one inch to ten
feet. Recently a company who
had them build a model display,
placed it in their window and
within the day, more than fifty
orders for homes of standard size
and proportion were received.
Browne admits that he gets as
much thrill out of building a
model of the home for Bill Bills
as he would get out of building
a home for himself and family
and says that some day perhaps
an Irish sorcerer will change q
whole American village to
dwarfs and then his fortune will
be made. (

DOG STAR SEEN IN FEATURE BILL
 NOW AT CAPITOL

A collie almost runs away with the honors in Courage of Lassie, v the photographically stunning and dramatically moving Technicolor picture brought to the Capitol screen by M-G-M, with Elizabeth Taylor, Frank Morgan and Tom Drake as the human members G the cast, and Lassie as the dog star whose intelligence and acting per ception are almost unbelievable
 Here is a picture which un- ashamedly and in glowing pictor- ial terms reaffirms the declaration that the dog is mans lest friend. Reuniting the appealing Miss Taylor and Lassie of "Lassie Comes Home" fame, it tells a tender and often gripping story of the devo- tion of the youngest member of a sheep-raising family for a stray collie pup. In the face of re- peated Encouragement, and with the help of Frank Morgan, playing a kindly neighbor, Miss Taylor trains the collie, called Bill" to be a discerning and obedient sheep dog.
 This is the starter of the story which has many exciting develop ments before the thrilling end.
