Police Have No
Theories About
Reason For Gun
Shooting

SANFORD R TWO shotgun
blasts were fired into a home two
doors from that of gubernatorial
candidate Bradley Oldham near
Sunday midnight but Police Capt.
Roy Tillis said 1--WE don't think
it was intended for the Oldham
house."
Oldham, Sanford oil man, is In
a runoff in Tuesdays second pri-
mary with Dan McCarty, Fort
Pierce citrus grower and cattle
man. McCarty led Oldham in the
May primary by. 128.0O0 votes.
The two have conducted a rather
heated campaign and have ap-
peared on the same platform sew
eral times where they repeated
their charges and counter-charges.
These have conferred generally
around non-reporting of all cam
paign contributions as required by
law; dog-track tie-ups; and rec
ords as state legislators.
The house shot into was occu-
pied by Irving Feinberg, whole
sale chemist. He was at home
with his son Richard at the time.
His wife was away visiting. The
two were in the rear of the home
and only noise of the neighbors,
Mrs. Feinberg said later, drew
THEN attention to the matter.
The shots, birdshot from a IL
gauge gun, crashed into a dark
ened bedroom window. The glass
was shatterproof and only cracked.
Between Feinberg and Oldham
lived DIR. Harry Silsby, a physi-
clan. He was at home. as were
Mrs. Oldham and her daughter.
Capt. Tillis did not question Mrs.
Oldham but said both Feinberg and
DR.. SilSby we're mystified by the
shots. The officer said they could
have been fired by rowdies. He
found two empty shells at the
scene.
All three homes are similar, but
DR.. Silsby's is dark and Feinberg's
and Odham's light In color.
Mrs. Oldham said call the neigh
bors went investigating the shoot
ing" and that after a while she
went home.
''The phone was ringing as /
went in" she said. Don Ryder
(0rlando Sentinel-Star representa-
tive was there. answered the
phone ana man said he under
stood there had been a shooting at
my house. | said it was two doors
down the street. He asked me
again If l was Mrs. Oldham. I
told him yes. and then he said
something like Well, you don't
have anything to worry about. I'm
not sure what he said but it was
something like that.
HE said he was a reporter and
I put my hand over the phone and
asked Don if he knew him and
then ! told the man / had a re-
porter in the house and I'd let
him talk. Don took the phone and
the man hung up. .
Il understand that a man came
in the Club Diamond about five
miles from here about the time
of the call and asked the bartender
where a phone was, that he made
call and then left In a hurry"
Mrs. Oldham said a pharmacist.
A. r. Pinkerton. lives next door
TO her and that he said he saw the
car occupied by the shooters.
"Pinky said the car was parked
close behind Mr.. Feinberg's car. "
Mrs. Oldham said. "He said that
after the shooting, the car backed
up. pulled out and drove away.
II wasn't in any hurry.
And Or. SilSby has two big
boxers and they bark at every.
thing that comes along but they
didn't bark last night. One of them
was sitting on the front porch,
too.

Plan" have been largely accomplished, John J. McCloy,
J.. S. High Commissioner in Germany, said in a prepared
telecast from New York, January 6. He described the eco
nomic and political transformation that has taken place in
Germany as almost a miracle"
The High Commissioner reported that-wlth Mar

duction %threefold, (2) jumped food output, 60 rebuilt
housing phenomenally, () blocked communism, and 80
experienced true democratic progress" He summed up
On the basis of the economic and political progress
already made, I feel one can have real faith that a salts
factory way will be found to meet the complex and heavy
problems that lie ahead Of the German Federal Republic
and that it will develop into a constructive and reliable
force for democracy in this part of the world.

OREIGN BRIEFS
EUROPE-Displaced Persons

The international Refugee Organization QkO) will
conclude it's 55-month global re-settlement of displaced
persons January 81. 1t will have reestabhshed more than
one million persons in new homes, including $4,000 in
the United States, and about $4,000 in their former home
lands. This work will be carried on now by an inter-govern-
mental committee of 16 countries, including the United
States. +
Relative to the IRO program, J. Donald Kingsley Gu.
S. Director of that organization said:
IRO was established to solve a specific problem-the
tragic human problem presented by hundreds of thousands
of persons uprooted and displaced as a result of the last
war. That problem, however, was complicated and magni-
fled early in IRO's lifetime by political tensions.
Never before in history had such a problem been
tackled by the international community and never before,
/ believe, was any similar problem so humanely, demo-
cratically, and expeditiously dealt with.

FAR EAST-Tssue in Burma

Soviet charges before the United Nations that we are
providing aid to Chinese troops in the South China-Bur-
mese border area were denied this month by State Depart
ment Press Officer Michael J. McDermott. He declared,
in response to questions, that the charges are another ex-
ample of the usual Soviet tactic of attempting to cover up
the aggressive designs of international. communism by
charging others with misconduct" He added:
The United States has no aggressive intentions in
Southeast Asia or in any other part of the world. The
government of the United States has at the request of the
government Of Burma exercised it's good offices Ctransmit-
ting communications from Burma to Formosa) in an effort
to assist the government of Burma in the solution of prob
lens raised by the presence of Chinese irregular troops
along the Burma-Chinese border.
Soviet "Testimonial"
"The highest testimonial" yet paid to the success Of
our Far Eastern policy was Stalins message on New Years
day to the Japanese people, John Foster Dulles, consultant
to the Secretary of State, remarked January 9, in an ad-
dress in Washington. Stain had said the Soviet Union
deeply sympathizes' with what Stain described as Japa-
nese "sufferings under foreign occupation"
Mr.. Dulles noted that prior to the message:
The Soviet leaders had treated the japanese with con-
tempt. They refused themselves to make peace and they
tried to prevent others from making peace they re-
fused to return japanese prisoners of war as they had
solemny promised; they demanded that the Emperor be
