ZajednicÌŒar = Fraternalist. [volume] (Allegheny, Pa.) 1894-current, 1954-04-07

Washington, ID. G. - Pota-
toes cost only a few cents a
pound. You can afford to
serve potatoes generously at
three meals a day without
even denting your budget.
Now in liberal supply and low
priced, potatoes spell thrift
to the. careful shopper.
Potatoes offer worthwhile
nutrients. The U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture says that
when you eat potatoes daily,
you can get as much as one
fourth of your vitamin G quo
ia, besides some of the B vi
tamins, iron, and other i'm
portant minerals, and starch.
A medium-sized baked po-
tato has only about 100 calo-
ries. Even if you're watching
your weight, you can continue
to enjoy potatoes, and the
benefits of potato nutrients.
(The things to avoid, if you
want to keep your calorie in
take down, are the various
rich" extras S o m e t m e S
served with potatoes.)
Potatoes are so pleasing to
the palate that consumers
want them at least once a
day. Potatoes appeal to ev-
cry age group, and they have
a place in meals ranging from
the casual to the formal.
Even if spuds cost more
than they do, consumers
would ask for them and meal
planners would want to serve
them, because there is prac-
tically no limit to the tempt
ing dishes made with spuds.
You can serve them at any of
the three meals a day = and
take them along on the family
picnic. Any hostess who
wants to add novelty to her
menu can do it with potatoes,
using a less familiar recipe.
And whether she's serving a
family meal or a dress-up din
Her, she can add substance
and flavor by use of spuds as
a vegetable, in the main dish,
in salads, and even in cakes
and desserts.
A mealtime asset at any
season, potatoes are now of
special interest to shoppers
because they are in liberal
supply and low-priced. It's
good household management
to serve thrifty, plentiful po-
tatoes often.

The crowd was in quiet but

Senate 10 Vote Today
On Move 10 Prevent
Cutting Size Of Army
Democrats Hope to Add
$3.50 Million to Keep
Army at le Divisions
n al
By J. A. O'Leury

Democratic charges that the
Republicans are gambling with
national security by cuts in de-
Tense spending will be put to a
test in the Senate today.
Senator Kennedy of Massa-
chuSettS and six Democratic
colleagues will press for vote
on an amendment to the 500
billion defense appropriation bill
to head off administration plans
to drop two Army divisions dur
ing the next year.
Their amendment, to add $3.50
million for that purpose, was
ruled out of order late yesterday
because the section of the bill
they were amending had already
been considered. The amend
ment would keep the Army at
10 divisions.
Senator Kennedy said a re-
quest would be made today to
reopen that section. His CO.
sponsors are Senators Mansfield
of Montana, Monroney of Okla
homa, Gore of Tennessee, SYM
ington of Missouri. Lehman OF
New York and Humphrey of
Minnesota.
Some supporters of the motion
were not optimistic, but the vote
may be close.
For several hours yesterday,
Senator Ferguson, Republican,
of Michigan, in charge of the
bill, defended the $29 billion
total as rejecting a level of ex-
penditure for defense the Nation
could stand over a long period
of unsettled world conditions. He
argued that heretofore the de-
Tense buildup was geared to a
succession of assumed D days,
which in turn were based on the
theory of "a particular year of
crisis"
The pending bill for the year
starting July l. is 81 billion under
the Presidents budget estimates
and $5.4 billion under last years
appropriation. The adminiStra-
ton, however, recommended the
reduction in Army manpower
from 10 to II divisions.
Senator Gore called the budget
"a desperate gamble with ma
tional defense and the security
of the world"
Democrats argued that the
Eisenhower budget was prepared
before the French situation be-
gan to deteriorate in Indo- China.
And Senator Kennedy said that
Vice President Nixon, Secretary
of State Dulles and Defense Sec
rotary Wilson all have stated
that the Southeast Asia Situa-
ton has grown worse in recent
months.
Senator Ferguson replied that
II IL was lnCenoeQ TO SEND Amerl-
can ground forces to Indo-China,
the Army part of this bill would
have to be increased.
But that is not the plan of
the United States at the present
time" said the Michigan Re-
publican.

the crossing constituted an IL
legal encroachment.
Mr.. Hagedern told The Star
by telephone today that South
Island was bought as part of
the Roosevelt Island property
and always has been considered
a part of it. He said he could
not speak for the group, how
ever, as to whether it would OPP

But other sources predicted
the association probably would
object, and that similar opposi-
ton might come from Federal

low-level South Island crossing
would interfere with plans for a
balcony-like structure on the
main island overlooking the
Lincoln Memorial scene.
Senator Case is expected to
argue at the meeting tomorrow

they were sent to lunch without
reaching a verdict in the five
remaining charges accusing Mrs.
Lebron of assault with intent to
kill.
Mrs. Lebron, puzzled late last
night when the jury convicted
her three male companions Of
all 10 charges against them but
failed to agree on the charges
against her, has termed herself
leader of the band of Puerto
Ricans who staged the shooting.
The jury was sent home shortly
before midnight last night, after
ruling the men guilty of assault
with intent to kill when they
fired a wild volley of shots which
wounded five Representatives.
Convicted of Lesser Charge.
Earlier, the jurors had con-
victed all four of the lesser charge
of assault with a dangerous
weapon in the first of rare piece
meal decisions.
The four-Mrs. Lebron, "a:
Rafael Concel Miranda. Is:
Andres Figueroa Cordero. 90, and
Irving Flores Rodriguez, 27-face
a maximum prison term of so
years each on the dangerous
weapon charge.
After celebrating for nearly
Az hours, the jurors an
nounced, at 5:37 pm, that they
had reached the first of their
verdicts. They told Judge Alex
ander Holtzoff of the U. S. Dis
trict Court for the District Of
Columbia that they deemed all
four guilty on each of the five
counts accusing them of assault
ing the five congressman.
The jurors then went to dinner
and returned to resume delibera-
lions at 8 pm. At 81 pm. they
announced they had reached the
more serious verdict-guilty Of
assault with intent to kill
against the three men.
Conviction on that charge
makes the men liable to maxi
mum prison terms of IS years
each.
AS the second verdict was
given, Mrs. Lebron turned to q
deputy United States marshal,
Mrs. Eleanor Kehl, and wlAS-
pered vehemently:
II don't see why they don't
convict me, too"
Hear Verdict Calmly.
The three men, who testified
that they plotted the shooting in
New York as a demonstration
for the independence of Puerto
Rico, heard the verdicts against
them with outward calm.
In contrast with Mrs. Lebron.
who frequently became agitated
during the eight-day trial, the
men have displayed no emotion.
The jurors were sent home by
Judge HoltZoff and returned
today to continue their con-
sideration of whether Mrs.
Lebron intended to kill any one
when she fired her pistol.
Court officials said piecemeal
verdicts had been handed down
before, but that it is a rare
procedure.
Before the jury was dismissed
for dinner the foreman told
Judge Holtzoff the members had
reached a decision in 80 per
cent of the counts" The judge
! asked him to return those ver-
diets at that time to free your
minds" for concentrated DELHI
Grafton on the other charges.
