Stomp Collectors
Council May Consider New Stamps

The idea of a philatelic ad-
visory council to consult with
Post Office officers about pro-
posed new stamps has been re-
vived and may be put into effect
on an experimental basis in the
administration of President Eli
senhower. If accepted. the pro-
jected arrangement certainly
would result in closer and more
satisfactory relations between
the Nations stamp collectors
and the branch Of the Govern
ment with which they deal.
The council would include the
principal officials of the Ma
tional Federation of Stamp
Clubs, the Bureau Issues Asso-
citation, the American Phila-
telic Congress, the American
Philatelic Society and the So
ciety of Philatelic Americans
as well as representatives Of
unorganized collectors. Mem
bers would meet with Post Of
flee Department personnel at
regular intervals, probably four
times a year.
They would give their views
on stamps proposed by individ-
uals and groups primarily in
terested in the propaganda val
ues Of new issues. Further,
they would make known their
thoughts on first-day sale ar
rangements. exhibitions, publi-
cations. etc. It would be ex-
pected that they would favor
stamps of genuine national sig
nif1cance rather than stamps of
limited class or geographic ap-
peal.
Stamp collectors especially are
invited to visit the four new
rooms of French modernistic
paintings belonging to Chester
Dale now on display at the Ma
tional Gallery.
The 18th annual national
stamp exhibition, SOJEX 1853,
will be presented Friday to Sun
day. March 6 to 8. at the Walt
Whitman Hotel, Camden, N. j.,
under the management of the
Association of South Jersey

Miami Winter Nationals Are Attraction

Next Saturday, and for nine
days thereafter, center of at
traction for the Nations bridge
enthusiasts will be Miami, where
the 26th annual winter national
championships of the American
Contract Bridge League are to
be held.
Washington fans will join in
the competition for national
titles and "red" point credits.
Up for decision are the open
individual title November 30;
the mixed-pair championship,
December 1-3; the mems and
women's team titles, December
3-4; the open-team champion
ship, December As, and the
open-pair title, December CT.

Ii Floor Fall
Kills Miami Man
LIVES NEARLY TWELVE
HOURS AFTER TAKING
FATAL DIVE

MIAMI H-A man who plunged
from the 18th floor Of a Miami
office building and crashed through
the roof Of an adjoining two-story
structure died early today, more
than IL hours after his spectac-
ular fall.
Charles r. Svoboda, Al, a former
employee in the Pacific Building
from which he leaped, died at
3:35 a. m. Police said he jumped
from a window in a mems toilet,
across the street from Miami's
downtown Post Office.
Officer Robert Grant said Svo-
boda apparently hit the roof head
first. There was hole about two
feet square between the rafters
and cracks In the ceiling extended
some ten feet from the point Of
impact.
He was found sprawled on the
floor just over the international
Bar, his head In q pool Of blood.
Doctors at Jackson Memorial
Hospital said he suffered deep cuts
Of the head, broken right and left
arms, q broken right leg, and pos
sible internal and brain injuries.
He regained consciousness for q
moment on the way TO the X-ray
room and told q nurse that he felt
lousy
Svoboda worked as q cleanup
man and night elevator operator
in the Pacific Building until about
seven months ago.
Edelmiro Garcia, an elevator
operator in the building, said Svo-
boda got on an elevator about 4
pm.
SLOW are you," Garcia said he
asked him.
Zine, thank you," Svoboda re-
piled, and then asked to be let off
on the 18th floor.

hasseee where Governor Fuller
Warren has scheduled a hearing
after amended extradition papers
sent from Philadelphis, were ap
proved by the state attorney gen
erai. Earlier they had turned dowl
a petition for the removal of the
man when they said the papers
were improperly drawn up.
Following receipt of the Fed
eral Warrant, Switz' will undoubt
eddy be arraigned before u. Soon
missioner William v. Albury. Whe
Their or not the fact that he has
been indicted by federal grand
jury will forestall any attempt on
the part of Swift to remain In mis-
state is a matter for conjecture at
this time.
The federal government does not
have to follow regular exGadition
procedure to remove a fugitive
from the state. However, Swift
could be tried in this state, de-
pending on where the indictment
was returned. His attorneys could
have trial set in the State Of Flori-
da on the basis that his assets are
in this state.
Meanwhile Assistant District At
torney Vincent G. Panati Of Phila
delphia prepared to fly to Tallaha
hasse today to represent the state
of Pennsylvania at tommorrows
hearing. Switz is expected to be
represented by his attorney Albert
d. Hubbard.
In statement issued yesterday,
Panati commended Circuit Court
Judge N. Vernon Hawthorne for
his fairness and the impartial
manner in which he heard the eyi.
lence and rendered his verdict
Tuesday,"
Hawthorne refused to lower the
bond which has been set for
sc, 600 for the fugitive when he said
that he doubted if Swift would
appear in any court" If II were
reduced.
Attorney Albert Hubbard said al
the hearing he wanted Switz re-
leased from jail so that he could
take him to see Governor Warren
to show that he has led an ex-
emplary life since coming to
Florida and entering the shrimp
business.
Switz and his lawyers said that
he would not jump bond If it were
reduced to the point where he could
meet it, but Judge Hawthorne evil
IDENTIFY thought differently when he
pointed out that since Switz had
fed Philadelphia because of gang
ster threats, he might be loathe
% return there.
District Attorney Panati said that
s office had spent thousands Of
liars in an effort TO apprehend
ritx and that ''he was the number
e wanted racketeer in Phiiadel-
la.
Switz had earlier related q tale
threats which he said had fore
] him to Zee for his life.

Miami Lawyer Defends Local
Sailors Against Charges Of
Assaulting Police Officers
TRIAL OF NAVY
MEN ENTERS 2ND
DAY In CITY COURT

The trial Of a pair Of Navy
en- accused on four separate
argos of intoxication, resisting
rest, assault and battery on q
,lice officer, and disorderly
onduct, dragged into its second
ay in City Court before NUM-
pal Judge Enrique Esquinaldo.
he sailors claim they were badly
eaten by police in q fight on
august 9th.
The sailors, Robert P. Sunkel
nd Kenneth N. Ries, both Of the
JSS Albatross, are being repre-
sented by Attorney Donald G.
Nicholson. of Miami, who is de-
Tending them without charge as
a matter Of principle" Michel
son is q former Navy submarine
officer who served in Key West
on two different occasions.
According to the testimony of
police, the Navy men were ar
rested after a brawl on the Mon
roe County Beach. They allege
that they were attacked by the
sailors when they took them to
the Police Station for cancella-
ton Of liberty. They added that
thav had IA use force to place
the men in cells.
Police Officers Ramirez, Sor-
iano and founders all say that
the sailors started brawl at
both the beach and police station.
County Commissioners Gerald
Saunders and Joe Allen both said
Yesterday at the trial that they
witnessed three or four sailors
fighting on the beach on the
night Of August 9Th but that they
could not identity them COM
pletely. They said that they
notified police who already had
answered the call.
Attorney Nicholson succeeded
yesterday in having two addi-
tional charges Of destroying city
and private property dismissed
when he pointed out that the
city ordinance covers just
churches, schools and brick
fences"
Nicholson Is basing his defense
on the premise that the men were
never properly arrested and that
to arrest q man without q war
rant IL is necessary for him to
have committed q misdemeanor
in the presence of an arresting
officer. He added that the sailors
were justified in striking the
officers IL they used unnecessary
force.
Ten witnesses for the defense,
all Of them Navy men, are
scheduled to be heard this after
noon. Sworn statements from an
additional thirty sailors Is also
expected to be introduced as
evidence.
Nicholson said today that he
was fighting the case with the
permission Of his firm in Miami
and that he was not particularly
'mad" ut the police department,
but when he was stationed here
in the past he knew Of incidents
where sailors were beaten ua-
justifiably.
He said tina! he did not know
Of any action that might be
taken against any police officer
in connection with the beating OF
the sailors.
