watermelon cutting for residents
Of Sigsbee Park will be held al
the new recreation shelter on
Thursday evening at $50.

they arise.
High ranking Navy and civilian
officials will be special guests at
the affair.
Entertainment has been plan
ned and everything will be fur
nished by the council except table
silver and chairs.
In case of inclement weather,
the party will be held on Friday.
Final arrangements for the
watermelon party were made at
a meeting held at the shelter last
night.
Plans for q "teen age" dance
and supervised play for pre-school-
ers and younger children and pre-
schoolers were discussed.
Mrs. Barbara Mitchell, serving
as temporary chairman called for
reports from various committees
and stressed that the present Off
GERS will serve only until perman-
ent officers can be elected by all
the residents of the area.
She spoke briefly on what the
Council had already accomplished
and outlined future plans to pro-
vide recreation and services for
adults as well as children.
The Sigsbee Council meets at the

joint of his fingers. "He could have
been detected by using palm
prints" Roper added.
On the subject of finger prints,
Roper said that when he first work.
ed with the FIJI in 1889 the agency
only had $4,000, 900 prints on file
but today he said that there are
approximately a hundred and
twenty six million.
"Sixty-five per cent of criminals
whose finger prints are sent
in to the bureau for file are usual
ly identified with previous crimes. +"
On the art of removing finger
prints, Roper said that photo
graphs are made mainly for use
in evidence against a person be-
cause it shows exactly where the
print was taken from.
Records Are Vital
Roper said that one of the i'm
portant factors in a successful law
enforcement agency is the neces-
sity for good records to be kept.
He also explained the uses of ultra
violet light and polarized lighting
used in crime detection. =,
Ralph Faraldo, president, told
the members of the fine entertain
ment presented at the inter-coun-
Gil meeting Monday night held at
Miami Beach. He announced that
IN the future, no large meetings
will be held by the inter-council

conduct regular business. In the
future, only the executive members
will attend the meetings. The next
inter-council meeting will be
held at the Miami Shores Kiwanis
Club, he said.
Gleason Snow, in a complete re-
sumo, informed the members of

Truce For Ca1nbodia

ny LYNN HEINZERLlNo

GENEVA N - France made
peace with her Communist enc.
mics in Indochina just before dawn
today and q new Iron Curtain
clanked down on IL million per-
sons in north Wet Nam.
Cen. Georges Deltleill Of France
and Gen. Ia Quang Buu of the
Vietminh rebels signed armistice
agreements covering Wet Nam
and Laos just 3 hours and 50 min
utes after the Tuesday midnight
deadline French Premier Pierre
Mendes-France had set for peace
or his resignation.
"A truce for the third Indochina
state, Cambodia, was scheduled to
be signed later today.
The simple signing ceremony,
under a blaze of photographers
J lights in the former home Of the
League of Nations, called q halt
to an eight-year war in which
$1,000 soldiers of the French Union
expeditionary corps died or disap-
peared.
Korsa-Liks Partition
It also laid a Korea-like parti-
ton across the 42-mile waist OF

richest and most populous state,
about at the 18th Parallel Of lati-

residents north of the line. The 10
million Vietnamese below the par
tition will live under the provost
ern regime Of chief Of state Bao
Dai.
All Vietnamese elections, not
earlier than one year from today
and not later than two years, are
supposed to reunite the divided
country. But Western officials here
generally conceded the "tempora-
ry" partition line probably will be-
come a political and theological
frontier like those which split Ger
many and Korea.
Officials said the texts Of the
agreements would not be published
for several days, but their contents
already were generally known.
Civilians on either side Of the
partition line win have one year
to move to the other side II they |
desire.
800 Days
The French have the next 800
days to move out Of the big north
ern cities of Hanoi and Haiphong. |
Until that day next May they will
hold an enclave in the Red River |
Delta around those two major |
centers.
Cambodia and Laos will remain |
under their French-Supported roy
al governments. Vietminh troops |
which have invaded their territory |
- an estimated 10000 in Laos, few
er in Cambodia - will withdraw in
60 days.
For military security reasons
the date for the end of hostilities
was not announced. One Vietna-
mese official said, however, that
cease-fire orders would become ef-
fective in q week for the regular

fighters in the jungles and noun
tains would be given q longer
