One Person Is Killed;
Miami Area Hit Hard;
Citrus Crop ImperiIed
By the Associated Press

MIAMI, Fla. Oct. ia hurri-
cane sweeping on F1orida's citrus
belt today left a trail of injuries,
one death and property damage
estimated at SIS million or more in
four South Florida Gold Coast"
counties.
The storm now losing strength
over the land gave South Florida
a rough and tumble night with
125-mile winds and possibly a tor
nado as it sewpt in from the sea
last night and early today.
Mrs. Owen Adams was killed,
her husband critically injured and
their four children hurt when the
hurricane, or a twister spawned
by it, smashed their trailer home
at West Hollywood, community
of 1000 persons Is miles north of
Miami. Twenty-Five persons were
hospitalized there and 40 more
were injured in Miami.
Two hundred were homeless in
West Hollywood, where l25 houses
were severely damaged and Is
were demolished.
National Guard Called Out.
Florida National Guardsmen
were called out to protect property
and prevent looting there and at
the nearby towns of Davie and
West Hallandale.
Sheriff Amos Hall of Broward
County said all were hit hard and
look like tornado went
through them"
Some substantial homes were
destroyed and only foundations
were left in some cases, the sheriff
said.
At Davie. about 80 per cent of
the fruit was ripped from 1000
acres of citrus trees.
Fifty-five buildings were dam
aged and one plan destroyed at
the Broward County Airport near
Fort Lauderdale. The wind ripped
the doors off a hangar and
wrecked the plane inside.
Child Escapes Death.
Dozens of trailers were dam
aged or destroyed in the vicinity
of West Hollywood A year-old
child, Susan Mayham, escaped
death when the trailer where her
parents left her alone momentar-
lily was smashed.
The storm battered hardest at
the lower East Florida Coast.
Miami and its sister-cities were
sheltered and seemingly secure,
but 40 persons were injured, 1000
plate-glass windows broken, count
less roofs damaged and a toll
estimated by the Miami Daily
News at So million inflicted on
property.
Grady Norton, chief storm fore
caster, who makes official damage
estimates, gave a tenta tive total
of IS million but said his would
probably be revised upward His
estimate was for the path of the
storm, then sweeping over Lake
Okeechobee, big fresh-water
body in the center of the lower
peninsula.
The full toll of citrus and vege-
table losses remained to be
learned The storm lost much
strength as it reached the rich
citrus belt but still kicked up
gusts of hurricane force (75 miles
an hour or higher.
Palm Beach Escapes Damage.
Palm Beach, playground of the
international set, escaped heavy
blow. Highest winds reported
there were 70 miles an hour in
gusts. Minor damage such as
felled trees, signboards upset and
streets flooded was the worst ex-
perienced in the Palm Beach
area.

The President extended the

American Far Eastern policy.
What we want is a partnership
for peace with all the world" Mr..
Truman told a cheering audience.
He said I'VE want peace but it
must be a peace founded upon
justice. That American policy is
as old as our republic and it is
stronger today than ever before in
our history. And with Gods help
we intend to keep it that way"
The crowd applauded vigorous

are increasing our armed strength
because Soviet policies leave us
no other choice"
If the Soviets really want
peace" Mr. Truman continued,
they can prove it "by living up to
the principles of the United Ma
lions charter and "by joining
the rest of the United Nations in
upon the North Koreans to
lay down their arms at once" and
by lifting the Iron Curtain and
permitting the free exchange of
information and IDEAS" and,
by joining with the U. N.
to establish a system of collective
security which will permit the
of the atomic bomb
and the drastic reduction and
regulation of all other arms and
forces"

Mr.. Truman declared that until
the Soviet Union does these
things I'VE are determined to
build up the common defensive
strength of the free world"
I'VE hate war" the President
declared, but we love our liber-
ties. We will not see them de-

The Premier of Israel re-
Gently addressed a small init
mate gathering in Tel Aviv. The
Premier spoke glowingly of Is
rael, it's tasks and accomplish
ments. He was lavish with praise
for everyone, particularly the
young whom he painted with
language bordering on the artist
ic. When he was through a
charming woman rose to applaud
the Minister. She agreed with
everything he said except about
the youth. There was eyebrow
raising as she spoke. Finally the
lady explained. She was willing
to give the Ben Gurion regime
credit for everything but she
couldn't see what right the Min
lister had to boast about the
youth. The Israel youth, she
burst out in laughter, is after all
a product of private initiative.

Politics

Jordan's rejection of the UN
Palestine Cancellation Commits
sion's bid for direct peace negoti-
ations with Israel was not an
unexpected development. No
clouding of the issue at the recent
Arab League conference could
conceal the fact that the rest of
the Arab states were seeking to
make a bargain with King Abb
dullah. They threatened eXpul-
sion of Jordan from the league
in the event a separate peace was
effected with Israel. It is now
clear that Abdullah has yielded
to Egypt on that issue. But what
did he get in return? It is this
corners prediction that the
league will give official sanction
to Abdullah's annexation of the
Arab sector of Palestine. This
deal has all the earmarks OF a
London-made product.

offers a few features which should
be. considered when making your
selection. These points are offered
following series of tests made at
one Of the state experiment sta
tions. No one brand has all the
features, but the following tips
may give you the most satisfactory
buy.
1. High-speed centrifugal water
extraction means less water left
in clothes, less weight to handle,
shorter drying time, less cost in
running an automatic dryer.
2. A float valve or air pressure
water-hlling control is particular
ly needed in homes where the wa
ter. pressure may be below fiftv
pounds. Machines having three wa
ter levels are convenient for small
washings.
3. Bolt-down models may be more
economical in permanent homes
but the cost Of re-installation may
make them more expensive for
renters than models which do not
bolt down.
4. For small washing jobs access
to the tub during washing is a con-
Venience.
5. Automatic filing of water is
more convenient than manual fill-
ing which requires the user to
stand up to shut off water at the
right level.
s. Clog-free drains save eFeduent
cleaning of lint trays.
q. Flexibility of the dial is i'm

fine fabrics because the user can
shorten or change the washing.
