Truman to Get Panama Hat
But 1t Comes From Ecuador

had been imported into Panama
and purchased there by miners
returning from the 40 gold rush
to California.
Since the 'forty-niners had
other things on their minds, they
just called their hats Panamas
and let it go at that. So did sue
ceeding generations Of North
Americans.
But in Ecuador the Panama hat
is still known as "sombrero de
paja toquilla" Chat of toQuilla
straw, after the toquilla palm
from which the fine fibers are
obtained.
All Panama hats made in Ecua-
dor are handmade. An ordinary
one takes a week to weave. A fine
one, like President Truman's, takes
three months.
Because of their light weight
they are excellent for throwing
into political rings, as well as fol-
protecting politicians head
from excess heat, it is said.

A hat with a century-old mis-
homer was to be delivered to Presi-
dent Truman today with much
ceremony and elaborate explana-
tionS.
The Ecuadorean Ambassador
August Dillon, was to present the
hat and the explanations in per.
son to avoid any possibility of @
rift in international relations.
It must be made crystal cleal
to the President, the Ecuadorear
Embassy explained, that the
Panama hat he is getting has nc
connection with Panama. And
furthermore, real Panama ha,
was never-repeat: no. never!-
made in Panama.
This Is to be made clear, the
embassy hopes, by the explana.
ton that it was just 100 years
ago, in June, 1850, that the fabu.
lous Panama hats were first seer
in the United States. But they
were not really Panama hats
They were Ecuadorian hats thai

FAIR CATCHES REPORTED BY
ICE FISHING ENTHUSIASTS

Ice fishing is underway in the
sheltered areas Of Sandusky Bay
and Lake Erie, with reports Of
fair catches being topics for con-
versation among the many ice
fishing enthusiasts.
Despite the lengthy cold wealth
er, the ice is not safe enough for
distance expeditions, but is thick
enough for relative safety close
to shore. Most fish being caught
last weekend were perch and a
few pickereL.
At Put-in-Bay, the islanders are
praying for more freezing wealth
er as their livelihood depends on
good ice, both for commercial
purposes and for food.
Some islanders have tried their
luck fishing through the ice but
initial catches were of small
perch and only a few pickerel.
Everyone seems to have repair
J0DS TO make on their flSh Shan-
ties. which have not been used
since the winter of 1947.
Bill Miller and Dick Fox have
already driven their old Ford
cars out on the ice near Putin
Bay and if the cold weathSr con-
tinues, the islands famed "Shan-
ty Town" of fishing shantIes will
return to reality.
During the last two years, the
ice was too thin for fishing and
the islanders had "lean' winters.
When ice is firm, hundreds of
sportsmen fly from the mainland
to Put-in-Bay for ice fishing trips,
remaining at hotels and lodging
places on extended stays.

Urges McGrath

NEW YORK, April 20 - A thor.
ough investigation of the Federal
Grand Jury proceedings in Ocala,
Fla, generating law enforcement
officers accused of beating three
young Negroes while under arrest.
was made today by the National
Association for the Advancement OF
Colored People. 5b
Basing his request a report sub
mitted by Franklin H. Williams of

Marshall, the Associations special

Howard McGrath urging prompt

United States Attorney Herbert
Phillips, charged with the respon-
sibility of prosecuting the case.
The grand jury nearing, held
April 17-1S, followed FIJI investiga-
ton into the charges that Samuel
Shepherd. Walter Irwin and Charles
Greenlee, accused of rape, were bru-
tally beaten by law enforcement Of
ficers while in the custody Of
Sheriff willis Mccall. The three
were convicted last September.
Shepherd and Irwin are under death
sentence and Greenlee is serving a
life term. An appeal for new trial
for Shepherd and Irwin was made
last week by NAACP attorneys be-
fore the Florida State Supreme
Court.
Refusing to return an indictment,
the grand jury went out of its way
to commend Sheriff Mccall for pro
tecting and saving" the youths
from great violence at the hands
of an Infatuated citizenry."
The failure of the us. Attorney
to subpoena key witnesses who had
personally observed and examined
the injuries inflicted upon the
young men would, Mr.. Williams said
in his report, seem to indicate a
lack of interest in vigorously pre-
senting the entire case to the grand
jury"
Such witnesses, Mr.. Williams re-
ported, included Attorney William
