Panama Revolt Looms
After Closing Of Bank
By the Associoted Press

PANAMA CITY, Panama, Mar.
"a political revolt against Pres
ident Arnulfo Arias threatened to-
day following yesterdays court
order suspending operations of
Panama's only privately owned
bank, the Panama Trust Co.
Six former Presidents of the
country in a published manifesto
called for a nationwide general
strike against Mr.. Arias to show
''tile peoples final will"
The manifesto was published in
late edition Of the opposition
newspaper Ell Pals, which earlier
yesterday had suspended publica-
tion temporarily after the 30-min-
ute arrest of its editor, Samuel
Lewis. The ex-Presidents blamed
the banks closing on persecution
by Mr.. Arias after he was refused
control of the institution.
The government countered with
q charge that the opposition and
some Communists" were attempt
ing to spread alarm. 1t blamed
the banks closing on mismanage-
ment by the Board of Directors.
A bank spokesman retorted that
the trouble all began after Mr..
Arias tried unsuccessfully to get
control of the bank by having his
ther-in-law, Enrique Linares,
jr., appointed board chairman of
the institution.

OSSINING, N. Y, Mar. o.
Lonely hearts killers Martha Beck,
81, and Raymond Fernandez, SO,
died last night in Sing Sing
Prisons electric chair, calm and
dignif1ed and pledging an undying
love for each other.
The 200-pound murderess was
the last of four persons executed
in the space of "a minutes.
She entered the high, bare death
chamber unassisted, squeezed into
the tight-fitting chair with diff
Guilty and smiled ever so family
at the two attending matrons.
Voice Is Silent.
$50 long" formed on her lips,
but her voice was silent.
Four minutes earlier, the prison
doctor had muttered, II pronounce
this man dead" over the body of
her partly bald Romeo, her part
ner in murder-for-profit.
1t was Sing Sings first quad
ruple execution in four years.
The parade of death began with
John S. King, %. of Long Island
City, sentenced for the holdup-
murder of William H. Hupe, 90,
airline radio operator. last March
He was dead at 11:05 pm.
Richard Power, %, sentenced
| for the same crime, was the Sec
ond to die.
Fernandez brown eyes were
sparkling when he entered the
death chamber. The suggestion
of a smile played at the corners
of his mouth, and he obligingly
adjusted his arms for the five
guards strapping him into the
chair.
Kisses Crucifix.
At the last moment he kissed a
crucifix offered by the Rev
Thomas Donovan, Roman Cath
olic prison chaplain. Fernandez
was dead at 11:13 pm.
Fernandez and his paramount
love for each other persisted
through their 19-month separ-
alton in prison.
A few hours before they died
they issued statements through
Mrs. Beck's lawyer, Herbert E
Rosenberg.
my last statement to my at
torney," the murderess said, "is
that have sinned and society
will know that I am paying this
debt.
"The sin is great and so is the
penalty. This is not the minute
to speak OF VINO is to blame
What is in the past must remain
in the past.
"Only those tortured by love as
I was can know what I mean
Love Is Strengthened.
Prisons and the death house
have only strengthened my love

Mrs. Fay had entrusted $500

ready to die.'
Martha's composure was almost
as great as Raymond's as she en-
tered the chamber.
Recites Twenty third Psalm.
She was immaculate in the gray
dress of the condemned. She wore
just touch of makeup. and barely
glanced at the witnesses.
AS she died the Rev. Luther K.
Hannum. Protestant chaplain, re-
cited the Twenty-Thi Psalm.
Mrs. Beck and Fernandez were

the world, how many crimes have
been attributed to love? Here
are my last words and my last
thought:
LET he who is without sin cast
the first stone.
II love Raymond"
Given Martha's message Fer
nandez told Mr.. Rosenberg:
II am going to die like a
man "The news brought to

The tabulation of the number
of forest fires fought, the damage
done, and the number of acres
burned for the month of Deem
Der has been completed. The
fire crews fought and extinguish-
ed % fires during the month OF
December. Four hundred and six
acres were burnt with the result
ing damage to the forest OF $685.
90. The above damage does not
include damage to fence post and
wire or damage to improved pas
ture. The largest fire occurred on
J. S. Watson's property; two
crews were needed to extinguish
this 124 acre fire.
Only one fire tower was In
operation in Holmes county dur
ing the month of December, SC
the location of fires had to be es
timated. 1t requires an experienc-
ed towerman to estimate the 10
cation of fires which occur five
or six miles from the tower. For
this reason crews have been sent
TO fires which they did not To-
cate. In many cases while the
crews were looking for a fire it
would burn itself out. We are sor-
nv these unavoidable mistakes
happened and hope to eliminate
these mistakes when Providence
tower is placed in operation this
month.
A land owner called and in
formed the Area Forester that he
was going to burn 200 acres OF
land and asked for fire crew
to help him burn. 1t is physically
impossible for the fire crews to
help every landowner in Holmes
county burn his land; therefore,
we cannot help any individual
landowner burn his property.
By following the few suggestions
listed below a landowner can
burn his fields successfully.
/. Plow or disk a fire lane
completely around the field to be
burnt.
2. Burn on day when there
is very little wind.
3. Start the fire late in the
afternoon as the fire will not
burn as rapidly as it would ear
lier in the day.
4. Set the fire into the wlnd;
be sure it is set all along the fire
lane and not just in one spot.
S. Have four or five persons
to help start the fire and to help
check the fire lane for break
overs.
II these five suggestions arc
followed the fire crews won't be
called to help landowners extln-
euish fires that have gotten a.
way from them and will be able
to devote their time to putting
out fires that start from unknown
causes.
