Montgomery Is Flying Home
After 2 Meetings With Stain
Cordial Friendship Is Apparent in Tolks
Centering on Military Collaboration

gomery's visit was not purely social
and that he definitely talked mill
tary collaboration.
His most important talk, of
course, was his 70-minute interview
yesterday with Mr.. Stain in the
Kremlin. The two men were be-
lieved to have discussed Lord Mont
gomerys recent trip to the United
States, the American-British stand
ardization of arms program and the
British-American combined Chiefs
of staff. Ever one to speak frankly
it is believed here Mr. Stain spoke
candidly on these subjects. With
Lord Montgomery displaying this
characteristic of plain speaking,
they probably had much to say to
one another.
Apparently the conversation had
been most friendly, both in the in

BY the Associated Press

ROME, Jan. 11.-A large, anti
Communist faction of the Italian
Socialist Party seeded today
over the issue of collaboration
with the Communists, and
planned to form a new party.
The factions leader, Giuseppe
Saragat, President of the Constitu-
ent Assembly, announced the split
at the Socialist Party's 25th annual

Mr.. Saragat thus broke directly
with Pietro Nenni, pro-Communist
chairman of the Socialist Party, who
is Italy's Foreign Minister and Act

A1cide de Gasperi.
The Socialists generally are con-
sidered Italy's second strongest
party, ranking just behind the Cen

Communists rank third.

Mr.: Saragat said his new party
would be called the italian Socialist

contain besides his own followers, a
group called the Initiative" led by
25-year -old Matteo Matteotti, son OF
the Socialist martyr of the Fascist

known as the "CentriSts."

.HickenIooper
Senate Choice
For Atom Post
Committee Move
Seen as Booking
Buruch Stand
BY the Assoeioied Press

Senate Republican leaders to-
day picked Senator Hickenlooper,
Republican, of Iowa to head
the Senate House Committee on
Atomic Energy in a move re-
garded as insuring full COP
support of the Baruch mo veto''
plan for world development of
the resource.
Senator Hickenlooper, whose Sc
lection as chairman depends on an
agreement by House members of the
committee, refused any immediate
comment.
But the Iowa Senator, who ranked
third among the Republicans on the
group formerly headed by Senator
McMshon, Democrat, of Connecti-
cut, is strongly on record for the
Baruch plan of divulging atomic in
formation to other nations only
after a workable inspection setup
has been established which cannot
be voided by any nations veto.
To Continue Support.
COP leaders said new appoint
ments to the committee would DEM
onstrate further a party policy to
back the Baruch plan against any
attacks that might be forthcoming
on it from the Soviet Union or Po-
land which refrained from voting
when the plan was approved by the
United Nations Atomic Energy Com
mission December 80.
Senator Vandenberg, Republican,
of Michigan, has said he does not
want the committee chairmanship,
but is undecided whether to remain
as member. The change in control
Of Congress may eliminate Senator
Byrd, Democrat, of Virginia from
the group and give his seat to Re-
publican.
ANY final agreement on the dis
closure of information to other ma
tions must be approved by Con-
gress, and the Senate-House Com
mittee is expected to play an i'm
portant role in determining con-
gressional policy.
Austin's Backing Expected.
Senator Bridges, Republican, of
New Hampshire said he hopes the
Baruch plan is supported to the
hilt by Warren R. Austin, named
yesterday by President Truman to
take over the post vacated by Ber-
nard M. Baruch on the U. N.
Atomic Commission.

the Republicans in the Senate share

For Substitution
BY the Associated Press

BALTIMORE, Jan. II. - Two
Washington horsemen received pris-
on sentences today for substituting
ringer in two races at Pimlico
track in November, 1945. ...
James S. O'Donnell, 40, owner
of Flying kits, which the State
contended ran under the name OF
Rounco, was sentenced to two years
in Maryland Penitentiary by Judge
E. Paul Mason In Baltimore Grim
inal Court.
Roland Bennett Sanner, 46, trainer
of Rounco, was sentenced to 1S
months in the Maryland House OF
Correction.
In passing sentence, Judge Mason
said he was concerned not only
with the fact that the Maryland
Jockey Club-which runs Pimlico-
had been defrauded of its purse
money, but that the racing public
had been duped.
He pointed out that O'Donnell
had past record, having been SEN
fenced for Army desertion in 1917,
a prohibition violation in 1880 and
/ for passing counterfeit money IN
1886.
o,Donnell's attorney Immediately
noted an appeal.
Both defendants were convicted
by a Criminal Court jury on charges
of obtaining racing purses by false
pretenses and of conspiring to OBJ
tain them improperly.
The supreme bench affirmed San
ner's conviction on all counts but
reversed ODonnell's on false pre-

NEW YORK, Jan. 11.-Undis-
mayed by it's critics. the CIO
United Public Workers of Amer
lea will continue to pursue the
leftish type of policy which has
got the union into congressional
hot water during the past year
The decision to continue what
UPWA officials say is a progressive
and energetic" union policy wa.
overwhelmingly agreed on by thu
unions Executive Board at its semi.
annual meeting which closed her,
yesterday.
Despite the assertions of theil
critics that the union is a left-winf
organization which sometimes fol.
lows the Communist Party line
UPWA officials declare their organ
ization will not be swerVed from it:
goal: "To obtain decent working
and living conditions for all workers
in the public service. whether they
be in the Federal Government, OF
in State, county or city govern
ments."
Political Control Denied.
UPWA officials are generally
agreed that the organization has
made some mistakes which should
not be repeated in the future, such
as the pro-Soviet foreign policy
adopted at its Atlantic City conven-
ton. But these officials contend the
only way the union can thrive is by
continuing what they term "a
policy of fortnight and progressive
unionism.
On the Communism issue, UPWA
officials declare the union is not
controlled by any political party and
accuse their detractors of Red
batting. -.
The Executive Board side-stepped
taking a strong stand on the issue
of Communist infiltraoion in union
ism, contenting itself with the
adoption of the complete 1947 ma.
tional CIO program, which includes
a provision declaring that the CIC
'resents and rejects" Communist in
reference in CIO activities.

This was in direct contrast with
the actions of some CIO unions

BEHIND OUR FOREIGN
POLICY

The strong hand" foreign
policy of the United States
is apparently based upon the
conclusion among high of
1icials that the job Of run
ming the world must be as
sumed by the United States
or by Russia and that Russia
will not attempt to challenge
this country.
In connection with this as
sumption, it is also pointed
out that Russia will 90 on
expanding unless opposed
and that the Soviet Union
will become strong in much
the same manner that Hitler
gained strength-by picking
up neighboring territories in
Europe.
The third assumption III
connection with foreign pol
icy, is that the Soviet Union
must understand that the
United States will, if neces-
sary, accept war as an alter
native to a world dominated
by the Communist regime
that controls Russia and
much of Eastern Europe.

The Governnentlihasip pro-

phasizes the necessity for

ton of our youngsters"
We are not advised of the

of the educational processes,
but if the idea in Yugoslavia
is to strait-jacket the process

will be evil.

process leads to intellectual
stagnation. No other factor

BOON INDEED

Judging by inquiries The
Citizen received, many Key
Westers were under the inn
preston that, when the War
Department included the
Army Barracks among sur
plus properties, the bar
racks were to be sold. But
such is not the case, though
it would be a great boon to
Key West were the barracks
sold to private individuals.
As readers may recall, 20
years or so ago it was report
ed that Carl Fisher, who de-
veloped Miami Beach, was
trying to buy the barracks
tract from the government,
but the government did not
wish to sell.
1t does not follow that the
War Department wishes to
sell the barracks or any 9TH
err of its holdings in Key
West because it is going to
be put on an inactive basis.
No soldiers were stationed
in the barracks from shortly
after the conclusion of Civil
War till 1892. Young people
in Key West in those days
did not know what a soldier
looked like. Two civilian
caretakers were in charge of
the barracks, and one of
them daily obtained rain
water from the huge cisterns
there and sold it at 10 cents
a demijohn.
Key WeSters turned out
by the thousands to watch
two companies of soldiers,
that came here in 1892, as
they marched from the Nal
lory wharf to the barracks.
Yes, it would be one of
the best things that could
harpen to Key West if the
barracks tract could be ac-
CURED by millionaire devel-
opcrs. The Garrison Blight,
across Palm avenue from the
back of the barracks, could
be deepened and hotels, and
apartment houses could be
constructed on the ground
now occupied as an army
post.
Time and again, the bar
racks tract has been refer
red *. as the best site in Key
West for development in line
with a highrclass winter re-
sort. 1t would be a boon in
deed to return the tract to
private ownership.
