THIS ROCK OF OURS

BILL CIB8

Mr.. Whitehair who conferred
last Sunday with Key West Of
ficials in regard to the local
water and housing shortage also
issued d rather interesting state
ment about politics.
In both Jacksonville and Mi
ami he devoted considerable
amount of time boosting Russell
as his choice for President.
Though the Undersecretary
handled his subject in such a
delicate way that he could not
be accused Of actively carrying
on a campaign, seasoned observ-
ers throughout the state as well
as locally could easily see
through the yelled cloak.
Because Key West recently
had a mild furry of activity
with regard 10 the Hatch Act.
it might be interesting to
quote verbatim the under
secretarY's statement before he
launched into his explanation
of why he liked Russell.
g. / wish to emphasize the
fact that the President Of
the u. S. -. has made it clear
that politics, as such, has no
place in the military. But the
administration was equally en-
phatic in saying that civilians,
while serving in the military, are
not thereby Shorn of their pri-
Vate rights as individual citizens,
nor deprived of the right of
making known their personal
views on political matters"
In order to prevent any mis-
understanding as to why or
how he was brought TO Key
West. the following is also a
verbatim report:

He compared the initiation with
"a concealed minefield" and said
the nation would lose its battle
against Communism unless its
economy is strengthened.
Governor Dewey, introducing
the general, delivered an even

Detectives today plodded a 20-mile
route seeking the identity from
rogues gallery pictures Of the
men who made crime history
Tuesday by snatching 468l, 900
from an unattended armored car.
The investigation took that turn
last night after authorities specu-
lated that the thieves followed the
armored car from Boston and
chose to stage the robbery in
Danvers Square only because it
was their first and best oppor-
tunity. rather than by prearranged
plan.
Three men broke into the ar
n1ored car-probably with a key
ard emptied the money into their
stolen car while the three guards
slipped coffee in a drugstore about
20 feet awav.
The detectives showed their pic
lures to employees and neighborsI

stopped en- route to Danvers.

They added. however. they
weren't sure they were the same

1t was "a very thin thread Of evil
dence."
State Police Capt. Joseph Cres-
clio said that so far. seven photo
graphs have been picked out byt
people along the armored cars
route Of last Tuesday. A roundup
Of those men began Immediately, |
but no one has been detained by

made seven stops, all north OF Bos-
ton. before it was robbed IN Dam
vers Square.
Switched Autos.
Rogue's gallery pictures also
were shown to householders In
Everett, where the robbers switched
getaway cars. The cars-both
stolen the morning of the robbery
were found abandoned in that,
city.
There was an unsubstantiated /
report early today that the FBI
has secretly issued a list Of $216,-
900 in missing bills, but it could
not be determined if the bills
were among those taken from the

10 Take
Reserve Board Order
10 Courts on Appeal
BY fhe Assoei1sed Pres.

A Federal Reserve Board fight
to split up the huge Transamerica
banking combine headed today
for final decision IN court--with
a bank oficial accusing the board
Of acting airregularly' In a weird
proceeding.
The reserve board. by a 3-2
vote. yesterday ordered Trans
america to dispose Of its stock in
~ Of the 4s banks that make UP
the Transamerica system. the
worlds biggest banking empire.
The late A. r. 0iannini, one
time fruit peddler. started the
system with q single bank IN 1904.
Now the 48 banks In California,
Washington. Oregon. Nevada and
Arizona have about 681 banking
|ofiices. 81 billion in deposits. and
half the bank loans in the lve
States.
Ruled . Monopoly.
The board ruled all this tended
to create a monopoly. in violation
lot the Clayton Anti Trust Act.
Under the boards order. Trans
America would be permitted to
keep stock in only one bank-the
Bank Of America. a 530-branch
California chain. itself the big
gest individual bank in the world.
Transamerica at one time owned
almost all Of the Bank of America
but now claims to own only about
6 per cent of its stock. .
Sam Husbands. Transamerica
president left little doubt the
boards decision will be appealed
to Federal Court. This could add
years more OF controversy to the
case, which was before the Re-
serve Board almost four years.
Indicates Appeal Pattern.
Mr.. Husbands, in a statement
late yesterday, indicated the pat
tern of the appeal with q charge
that the board ruling was a
weird climax to a weird pro-
ceeding."
He noted that two members of
the Seven-man reserve board did
not participate in the case and
that r. NJ. Evans, a board member
who ruled against Transamerica
In preliminary hearings, did par
ticipate. "a
He also charged board members
acted 'irregularly" in planting"
news stories on the decision be-
fore any formal announcement.
He did not identify the news ar

Reserve board attorneys have
charged that never before has SO
much economic power over so
