BENEFIT OF ALI.

With rain beginning to fall in Key West after long
drought the question about running water may
bit though Key Wesers should keep in mind that ade-
guae flow of water into the city from Florida City ranks
first essential to our continued growth.
Just how acute the question is demonstrated by
the of letters that appeared in The Citizen about the
of Florida Keys Aqueduct water for watering lawns
Several residents quick respond that they not
using piped water but instead wetting lawns and
plants with cistern well water.
1t may surprise Key Westers to know that many
residents took the advice of naval officer during the

that the flow of water through the nch main that
into Key West may be discontinued for short periods for
several reasons particularly break in the line chiefly
result of heavy winds Today there many cisterns

parts of Key West The used to keep
aquitoes.
One letter in The Citizen was from a Miaman who
argued specousy in trying his point lie asserted
that The Citizen, in editorial, forgot that besides resi-
dents of the Upper Keys many people constantly visit that
locality That equivalent to saying that Key West does
have any visitors He overlooked the important point
that people Key West visits than all
The Upper Keys combined.
The Citizen still maintains that the Nays position
hat the Upper Keys get more water in proportion to popu
ation than Key West is sound that is unassalable
nonscenousy To establish that soundness only ques
ton need be asked Is it right just for percent of the
residents of Monroe county get 20 of the water
=" supplied by the Florida Keys Aqueduc System?
In his statement in The Citizen Captain Ade (USN)
said the outlook that Key would get much

stations will bring water, but when take

Mahon, who contends atomic
weapons could be made the back
bone of American military arma-
ment, with a defense cost saving

yearly expenditure of Sc bi4l.ou.
At the same time. the Atomic

are making the bombs more effec-

to carry some atomic weapons on
smaller planes.

Senators Will Hear
Benton Case Against
Mccarthy on Friday.
By Cecil HoIIond

Inc SeQaUe EleCUlOIlS SupCOm-
mittee has scheduled a closed
meeting Friday to hear Senator
Benton, Democrat, of Connecticut
detail why he believes Senator
Mccarthy, Republican, of Wiscon-
sin, should be expelled from the
Senate.
The subcommittee decided yes
terday after a lengthy session to
hear Senator Benton before de-
Gliding on what further steps to
take regarding a resolution intro
duced by the Connecticut Senator
looking toward the expulsion OF
Senator Mccarthy.
Members Of the subcommittee
also decided to invite Senator Nc
Carthy to attend the meeting, but
refused his demand to be allowed
to cross-examine Senator Benton
Senator Mccarthy said he would
ignore the invitation and keep an
out-of town speaking engagement
since he would not be permitted
to ask questions.
Will Hear Mccarthy Reply.
II have said before I am not
going to waste my time on that
odd mental midget" he added,
using his favorite description of
Senator Benton.
The subcommittee headed by
Senator Gillette, Democrat. of
Iowa, also decided to hear Senator
Mccarthy in reply at the meeting
Friday, if there was time, or on
some other day.
Senator Benton introduced a
resolution August asking an in
uuiry to determine whether action
should be started to expel Senator
Mccarthy for his part in what a
Senate report has described as a
back street" type of campaign in
the Maryland Senatorial elec-
tion last fall and his other acts
since his election to the Senate" >"
At the close of the meeting at
which the subcommittee decided
to hear Senator Benton, Senator
Margaret Chase Smith, Republi-
can, of Maine. made public let
ter to Chairman Hayden of the
Senate Rules Committee, asking
the group to decide whether she
is qualified to sit on the subcom-
mittee on ANY matters involving
Senator Mccarthy
Role Left Up to Committee.
She noted that Senator Nc
Carthy had contended that she
should have disqualified herself
from taking part in the subcom-
mittee's investigation and report
on the Maryland election because
of her declaration of conscience"
speech in the Senate June l, 1850.
That speech was regarded as criti-
ciSm of Senator Mccarthy for his
tactics in pressing charges that
Communists and Communist SYM
pathizers had inflltrated the State
Department. Among those sign
ing the declaration was Senator
Hendrickson, Republican, of New
Jersey, another member of the
Elections subcommittee.
Mrs. Smith said she would not
sit at the Fridays meeting unless
the full Rues Committee should
vote that she should take part.
She said she would not take part
in the full committees vote on the
matter, and suggested that SEN
ator McCarthy-a member of the
rules group but not the elections
subcommittee-also should refrain
from voting.
The Rules Committee is sched-
uled to meet tomorrow. Senator
Smith said she was assured by
Chairman Hayden the matter
would be brought up then.
