DECLINE SEEN IN
VALUE OF GOODS

WASHINGTON IN - The total
value Of all goods and services
produced in the nation continued
It's gradual decline In the first three
months Of 1854, drifting to a yearly
rate OF about 358 billion dollars.
Reporting this Thursday, the
Commerce Department attributed
the trend Of reduced orderings by
businessmen trying to sell off
heavy inventories and to lower de-
tense spending by the federal gov
eminent.
The January-M 1854 produc-
ton figure was 81 per cent below
the 7l-billion.dollar peak reached
In the second quarter Of 1858.

Fishing, Decking Facilities
To increase the areas attraction
to tourists, Logun plans to build a
fishing pier out into the ocean from
the end OF the extended patio and
parking area.
His plans also call for facilities
for docking small pleasure craft
something that is badly needed on
the ocean side Of the island.
Logun, one Of the city's more
progressive businessmen, institut-
ed an improvement program al
most from the time he took over
the restaurant few years ago.
He remodelled the interior, re-
moved the old bar and installed
completely new and modern bar.
Next he planted full grown palms
on the patio.
His restaurant, formerly known
as the South Beach Ocean Patio
Restaurant, Is internationally
known. It recently was written up
extensively In OBS, q Swedish ma
gazine. Included In the magazine
story was q full page reproduc-
ton Of one Of Logun's menus.
The restaurant also has receiv-
ed favorable stories in New York
and mid-western newspapers.
Further Plans
Mazur still may 60 through with
his plans to build q swimming pool
In his portion Of the new area.
When he first moved to buy the
bottom land from the state last
summer, he said he wanted to
dredge q 40 by 80 foot pool.
The Army engineers approved this
plan, too.
The entire program - beach,
pool, parking area and patio - is
q distinct advantage for Key West.
Both Mazur and Logun are firm
believers in the future Of Key West
as Q tourist center. Consequently,
they feel that you must build to
attract tourists - give the visitors
pleasant, spacious surroundings in
which to enjoy themselves.
That is the reason for the pre-
sent expansion program.

The work, being done by
the M. e. Bennett Construc-
ton Co., calls for the extern
sion Of the patio Of Logun's
Lobster House out 100 feet

AT the same time, the
beach front of. the Atlantic

Mazur - will be filled and
extended to match Logun's

Logun and Maxur have been
working on this project for almost
a year. Their first step was to sc.
cure the bottom land from the
state.
The city offered some opposition
70 this move but the two business.
men secured the land anyway.
The approval to I'LL and bulk
head the area was quickly obtain.
cd from the Army engineers.
Long before construction was
started, engineers were engaged TO
run tests on the ocean currents off
the beach. The purpose OF the tests
was TO determine what effect the
filled area would have on the sand
accumulation on adjacent beaches.
Ne Harm To Beach
This was one Of the city's OBJ
jections - that the TILED area
would ruin the city's South Beach.
However, the tests proved conclu-
sively that filling the area would
not harm any nearby beach.

patio space with tables, chairs,

Later the United Nations commander
observed that following Gen. Eisen-
hower's landslide election, "the Repub-
licanS were ready to go further than
the Democrats to achieve truce"
Gen. Clark called the United Nations
effort in Korea "piddling" and ex-

Importance of q Free Press

Thank heavens for the newspapers! /!
I never realized their terribly vital place
in our democracy until I watched the
deadly implications of the Abraham
Chasanow case unfold. Cleared uncon-
ditionally by his loyalty review board
after 20 years of loyal, trusted Govern
ment service, he later arbitrarily is fired
and the only answer he or the reporters
could get out of the administration was
a refusal to comment.
Then as soon as the papers gave
broad publicity to such injustice, the
Assistant Secretary of the Navy
promptly advised the papers that due
to the publicity already given it, he
would grant Mr.. Chasanow another
hearing and reconsideration of the
decision.
No doubt the official did not realize
it, but he unwittingly disclosed deadly
grim fact: What happened to Abraham
Chasanow could happen to me or any
other innocent citizen falsely accused
if we didn't have the newspapers to
force the administration to grant a
just hearing. Where would we be with
out a courageous and free press?

enough to remain fairly efficient. This
is what happened and this is what was
said:
Senator Mccarthy was the first to
mention that all monitored conversa-
tions be subpoenaed by the committee.
Before the counsel or any member of
the committee, or before Mr.. Welch or
any one else suggested such procedure,
Senator Mccarthy said: Il think it is
of utmost Importance to have all con-
versations that are substantially accu-
rate in form, admitted . I think it
would be extremely enlightening."
A few minutes later, and speaking of
Mr.. Lucas, the witness, Senator Nc
Carthy said: 1T now appears that we
have witness Can opposition witness,
by the way) who can be of great value
to the committee, witness who moni-
tored the telephone conversations be-
tween Mr. Stevens and members of the
committee and other individuals in the
administration. think it would be
mistake to deny the Senator from
Wisconsin the right to find out all this
young man has in the way of notes.
:. would like to suggest to the chair
and to counsel that they subpoena all
of his original notes from the date that
the investigations of communism In
military installations began"
These are the facts. I am positive
the record will show precisely what my
shorthand notes show as here tran
scribed. And yet, Mr.. Roper makes a
desperate effort to have it appear that
Senator Mccarthy was forced into
agreeing to use of the monitored tele-
phone conversations.
1t would be refreshing, indeed, to
read in any Washington newspaper a
story about Senator Mccarthy that
isn't distorted almost beyond recogni-
ton. Sam Minis.

The old girl, he realizes, was a young
girl those many years ago, and saw

borhood.
Despite the changes that have come
to both of them, enough of the old
times was left in each face for recog-
milton.
Jones, gravely scrutinizing the face
across the aisle, wonders just who she
may be.
And the lady, in her turn, positively
turns her head upside down trying her
best to remember the name Of man
across the aisle.
She realizes that his is a face she
knows. Perhaps she is not philosopher
of the everyday, as friend Jones is. She
has had many cares, and the remem-
brance of small boys is not one of them.
She has no time to place him, as the

Integrity of Zoninq

1t was inevitable that population growth in
the Washington Metropolitan Area would ag-
gravate the problem of preserving zonng re-
Strctions adopted for the protection of property
owners in threatened areas. AS pressures con-
tinue to increase for lowering of long standing
bars against various types of construction in the
Maryland and Virginia suburbs, civic resistance
to spot-zoning and other compromises of zoning
integrity is becoming stronger and more united
The citizens have right to be heard and their
views deserve respect by zonng authorities.
More than deprecated property values of a few
owners are involved in such protests as have
been made recently in Arlington and Prince
Georges Counties. The future character of the
developing counties on both sides of the Poto-
mac River is at stake.
The Prince Georges County Commissioners
have evidenced their appreciation of the mpor-
tance of safeguarding zoned residential sections
against unWiSe invaSionS by speculative builders
of large apartment projects. The commissioners
in Difference to the opposition of citizens owning
homes in the vicinity of proposed apartment
development, have voted not to lift zoning re-
strictons in the single-residence area.
Meanwhile, in Arlington, representatives of
more than a dozen citizens associations have
organized the North Arlington Zoning Council
to fight against recurrent moves by apartment
builders to enter the countys most restrictively
zoned district. known as RIO. Under Arling-
tons master plan, most of the area between the
Lee highway and the Potomac River, as far as
the Fairfax County line is zoned for single
homes on lots of not less than 10000 square
feet Some of Arlingtons finer homes have been
built there. Pending before the County Zoning
and Land Use Committee is an application for
rezoning of 36-acre tract in the heart of this
area to permit construction of large apartment
buildings. The council opposed this application
at committee hearing and plans to oppose it
when it comes before the County Board next
month.
There is reason for the citizens concern
over such projects. Once the bars are let down
in any restricted zone. a precedent has been
established that is bound to bring new and
greater demands for lowered zoning rules Prop
erty owners who have invested in homes on the
basis of carefully drawn zoning regulations are
entitled to official protection against il-advised
changes. The areas zoning agencies ought to
60 exceedingly slow in breaking down any OF
the restrictions designed to maintain the high
character of residential communities.
When the big shots advise us not to get
hysterical about the bomb we wish their voices
wouldn't give the impression that they're about
to start suffering.

Dear Sir:
Sometimes when am riding
through certain older section of
Washington. where I spent my boy
hood, I see various persons. usually
women, who look familiar to me.
when I happen to catch their
glance, see that they know me. too,
although no doubt they could not re-
call my name.
1T gives me certain sort of inward
happiness, to realize that in some
manner or other left my mark behind
me, and that these good persons, whom
I like to think typical of the older gen.
Grafton. are on my side, even now.
"The experience makes me think of
the old saying, that we go through this
world but once, and that if we mean
any good to others. we should do it now
while there is a chance.
Sincerely yours, J. Nc L."
was talking about this with Tenn
pleton Jones, and he says he has had
exactly the same experience.
AS a boy he lived with his father and
mother in the Dupont circle neighbor-
hood.
Even now, so years later, he seldom
rides through there on bus without
noting that some elderly person with
gray hair is looking at him rather
fixedly.
Since Jones is very handsome per-
son, this might be attributed to admira-
ton, but Templeton Jones, who is as
