"FAvoRs DOG TRACK"

Editor, The Citizc~:
Please allow me space in your
valuable newspaper to give the
voters of Monroe County, some of
the good things that come from
the gambling money collected at
the race tracks, and distributed to
the counties in the State:
First, the gambling at the race
tracks has been legalized by law.
Second, the gambling money re-
ceived from the race tracks in
other counties, is sent to Monroe
County, to be given to the schools,
blind persons, aged persons and de-
pendent children. (Most of these
who receive this gambling money
are members of some church, and
use a part of this money to pay
their church dues or collections,
and Rev. Rogers is Monroe Coun-
tvs representative in the 10th Dis
trict, to control and disburse this
gambling money to the people of
Monroe County.
Third, the establishment of a
race track in Monroe County on
Stock Island will be a big asset to
all property owners in the county.
Fourth, it will employ Key West
people, which employment is need
ed.
Fifth, It will give the City of Key
West an added attraction for the
tourists, which will be welcomed by
those who like that type of recrea-
ton.
Sixth, The tourists while in Key
West will live in the Hotels eat at
our Restaurants and spend their
money with the local merchants.
Now suppose that all of the other
Counties that have a race tracks
were to stop their tracks, where
would Monroe County get the
money to maintain the vast school
system it now has, where would the
blind people, the aged people, and
the poor fatherleSS children get
money to buy food and the neces-
sites of life?
In conclusion I would like to say,

School Feted At
Services
Mrs. Myrtle Roberts of 1907
Fleming Street received special
honors Sat. as the Key West
Seventh-day Adventist church
paused with fellow churches, the
world around to observe the Tooth
anniversary of Adventist Sabbath
schools.
With thirty-five years of contin-
uous Sabbath school membership,
Mrs. Roberts who is nearly IS
years old, tops the list of long
time Sabbath schooi members in
the local church.
She first enrolled in 1917 when
the Key West Sabbath school was
first organized. There were about
rs members at that time. Mr.. and
Mrs Roberts were instrumental in
holdhs, the group together through
the wears when there was no pas
tor and the membership fluctuat-
ed because of deaths and members
coming and going. Mr.. Roberts
passed away twelve years ago.
Mrs. Roberts has held the offices
of secretary, treasurer, Sabbath
school teacher and assistant sup
erintendent.
Two other persons, Mrs. Texas
Hood and Miss Adalia Sawyer al
so members of the original group,
are still active in the present Sab
bath school and church services
held at 1915 Petronia Street.
X. L. Matthews, recently ap-
pointed pastor, presented the hon.
ors as part of the centennial pro-
gram. The pastor revealed that
there are now 1873 Sabbath
schools with a world membership
of 1,O34,06O. Since the first Sab
bath school was started in
Rochester, N. Y. in 1852, he stated,
more than $S1 900, 900 has been
contributed through this branch
of the church to spread the gospel

their representatives in Congress

ing the socialism of our public

me as though that, advertising

the people of this country cannot

If the people ever come to be

Hiss Trial typewriter
WAS Fake Machine,
Attorney Charges
BY tn. Assoeiot.d Pres.

NEW YORK. Mar. 13.-An
attorney for Alger Hiss charges
that the battered typewriter which
helped convict the former State
Department official "is a fake
machine" planted as discriminating
evidence.
The lawyer. Chester T. Lane,
filling supplemental affidavits yes
lterday seeking new trial, called
the typewriter "a deliberately
fabricated job, new typeface on
an old body"
Hiss is serving five-year Fed
eral prison term for lying to a
grand jury when he denied pass
ling Government secrets to Whit
|taker Chambers. confessed courier
for a prewar Soviet spy ring.
His was convicted in a second
trial after the first one ended in
a hung jury.
Charges Type Replaced.
Mr.. Lane first applied in JanI-
ary. for a third trial alleging that
Hiss old Woodstock typewriter
might have been tampered with.
Yesterday, his new affidavits
said he had evidence that the type
on the Woodstock had been un-
soldered and replaced with type
faces from another machine.
"It can only have been planted
on the defense by or on behalf
of Whitaker Chambers as part
of his plot for the false incrimi-
nation of Alger Hiss" Mr.. Lane
said.
In the fall of 1948. Mr.. Cham
bers produced copies Of Govern
ment documents which he said
were typed on the machine by
Hiss wife.
Found in. Attic.
The Woodstock was found in a
Washington attic in the spring
of .1949 by the defense before the
first Hiss trial.
Mr.. Lane charged:
"The fact that between Novem-
ber and April neither the defense
nor IS agents of the FBI could
find the machine suggests that it
was during this period that
further work was being done on
the type in an effort to remove
at least the more obvious tool
marks which would betray the
deception"
The new trial motion will be
heard April 8 by Federal Judge
Henry w. Goddard.

lBoeing Wins Contract for Shell

The Air Force Is pursuing two

Thus the Air Force, like the

The Air Force has made nc
tinAe prediction on either of the

atomic sub to be in the water ir
1854, but has made no prediction
as to the second one, which will
be 500 tons heavier.
One of the big problems with
an atomic-powered aircraft will
be the weight factor. A necessary
characteristic of atomic power
plants seems to be the great
weight of the surrounding shield
which is necessary for the protec-
ton against dangerous radiation.

Red Party Bookshops
Pushed baltimore S
Work, Probers Told
By George Beveridge

A 25-year-old former employe
of Communist Party bookshops in
New York testified today that a
book by Owen baltimore was
among those he was instructed to
sell because they carried the
party line on China"
The witness, Harvey M. Matu-
SOW, told the Senate Internal Sc
curity subcommittee he became a
Communist in october, 1947, but
served as an FBI informer for a
year before his expulsion from
the party in January, 1851.
Mr.. Matusow told the Senators,
investigating possible subversive
influences on this Nations Far
Eastern policies, that the Latti-
more book, Solution in Asia. !"
never could have been sold at the
party shops if it had deviated in
any way from party lines.
Other Writers Mentioned.
That principle, he said, also ap-
piled to the shops sale Of books
in 1948 by Edgar Snow, Sidney
Epstein and Agnes Smedley, wri-
ters whose names figure promi-
.nently in the Senate probe.
Asked If he considered Mr.. Lat
timore and the others to have
been Communists at that time, he
said that "in political theology, I
felt they agreed with the princi-
Piles of MarXist philosophy"
Mr.. baltimore, a Johns Hopkins
University professor and trustee
Of the Institute of Pacific Rela-
tions, has strongly denied pro-
Communist sympathieS and de-
Tended his writings. He will re-
turn tomorrow for an 11th day of
questioning before the Senate
group.
q, Handled IPR Pamphlet.
MI. MatuSow said the bookshop
also handled a pamphlet spon-
sored by the IPR-the interna-
tional research organization which
is the focal point of the Senate
inquiry.
=. The witness also testified that
the Reds in New York controlled
a union through which they
sought to get Communists employ
ment in bookstores. He said the
IPR was among organizations
which had contracts with the
union.
The youthful witness, an infan-
try veteran of World War II, said
he was thrown out of the party by
a two-man kangaroo court" after
Red leaders became suspicious of
him. He said no formal charges
ever were preferred against him.
A resident of Akron, he said he

cation very closely"
Conflicting Testimony Checked.
The subcommittee attempted to
clear up earlier conflicting testi-
mony which indicated that Mr..
Morris might have had help from
the White House in arranging his
first meeting with Admiral Smith.
Mr.. Morris yesterday denied
having had any White House con-
facts. Admiral Smith said today
that so far as he could recall Mr..
Morris did not have a White
House introduction, although he
apparently came into the Mar
itime Commission chairman's Of
flee in December. 1947, at the
same time that DR.. Robert C,
