Bank Robbed

lone bandit robbed the Interna-
tional Bank of Tampa of an esti-
mated $4,000 today and alb

Frank Massari, vice president
of the bank, made the loss esti-
mate. He said the gunman left
about $4,000 behind in a rear
vault. ..
Joseph Patrinostro. "a, was re-
leased unharmed after using his
own car to drive the unmasked
robber to another car awaiting
him about 10 miles northwest OF
Tampa.
Apparently the man hid in the
bank and came out after il
closed. ..
Mr.. Patrinostro said he was
eating lunch in an anteroom
when the man pulled a gun and
demanded money.
All the cash left in the teller's
cages was taken and when the
bandit ordered Mr.. Patrinostro
to get what was available in the
vault. Mr.. Patrinostro did so.
All this time the robber forced
other employees to walk up ano
down the main room where he
could keep an eye on them
When he was ready to leave he
tried to shut them up in the
vault, but gave up when the
vault door jammed on rug
Mr.. Patrinostro said he
thought there was another man
in the waiting car into which the
bandit switched. He telephoned
police from a filling station.
Policeman K. D. Blair said en-
ployes at the bank were so upset
they notified the telephone COM

According to present specua-

three men for supervising the

Although numerous business
elements in the city are known
to prefer Mr.. Karrick as presi-

Army Will Form
Atomic Division
701st Airborne Men
To Get NucIeur Guns
BY JOHN A. GILES

A streamlined airborne divi-
sion combining mobility with
new weapons designed spscifi-
Ically to fight an atomic war was
ANNOUNCED by the Army last
might.
The 101st Airborne Division,
famed for its stand during the
Battle of the Bulge, is to be re-
Iactivated at Fort Campbell, KY,
in September, as the first ground
outfit to have the most modern
Inuclear weapons as an integral
part of it's organization.
"If we had had three such di-
visions at the time of Korea, I
believe we could have broken it
up before it really got underway
because of air transport ability
and atomic firepower, said Maj.
Gen. Thomas L. Sherburne, jr.,

tmander.

! In a big war, he said. the para
troopers would be dropped deep
inside enemy lines with light but
lethal equipment and destroy
and hold an objective for only a
few hours. Planes then would
arrive and take them back out.
"The division would be sent in
to destroy stockpile. an impor-
tant plant or weapons or inspir-
ant individuals" Gen Sherburne
told reporters.
Instead of having the three
regiments of a conventional di-
vision, the 101st will have five
combat groups-each a self
contained force-and a total
strength of 1850 officers and
enlisted men. This is $500 fewer
than the existing two airborne
divisions, the 82nd at Fort Bragg
IN. c., and the 11th, also at Fort
Campbell. Each of these has
three regiments and total

Bill 10 Propose
u. S.-Financed
Potomac Tunne|
BroyhilI Planning
To Offer Measure
For Interior Dept.
BY GEORGE BEvERIDGE

The Interior Department to-
morrow will send to Representa-
tive Broyhill, Republican of Vir-
ginia. a bill proposing that the
Federal Government pay the en-
tire cost of a traffic tunnel un-
der the Potomac River near Lin
coin Memorial.
Mr.. Broyhill plans to intro
duce the bill Immediately be-
cause House action is styrnied
on a minor change in legisla-
tion which already has author
lied bridge at that location.
At the same time, District
Engineer Commissioner Thomas
A. Lane said he will meet early
this week with Representative
Davis, Democrat of Georgia
chairman of a House District
subcommittee which is bottline
up the bridge bill.
Interior officials, who long
have favored a tunnel because
of esthetic objections 20 the
bridge, stressed that their draft
OF the bill has not cleared the
White House for administration
spending policy.
Bridge Costs Stressed
A year ago, the Federal Budget
Bureau refused to go along with
Interior proposals that the Fed
leral Government pay only the
difference in cost between a
tunnel and the $24.5 million the
District has intended to spend
for the bridge.
Present hopes of many Interior
officials, however, is that the
tunnel should be a 100 per cent
Federal project because the Lin.
coin Memorial area is of vital
Importance to the Federal Gov
ernment.
One of their major arguments
is that, under pending highway
aid bills, 80 per cent of the
bridge cost would qualify for
Federal aid because the project
is part of the national system OF
interstate highways. Since the
Federal Government would pay
the bulk of the cost in any case
they argue, it might as well
spend the money for a tunnel.
Interior officials claim four
lane tunnel would cost $25.5 mil
lion, as against about $21 million
for the six-lane bridge. They
contend a system of approach
roads they have mapped out for
the tunnel would serve traffic as
well as more complex plans pro-
posed for the bridge.
Highway Officials Object
District highway officials, as
they have in the past. yesterday
lambasted the traffic argument
They contend six lanes is needed

d. Women Demand
'After-Dark Protection
Fear Street
Thugs, Want
More Police
By MIRIAM GUTENBERG

Spurred by fear of venturing
out after dark, women's organiza-
tions of Washington are de-
manding more police protection.
Statistics back up their fears.
In a city where women are used
to going about alone at night to
civic meetings, concerts and
other community activities, near
Ily 500 were the victims of street
robberies last year.
More than 300 of these in
volved purse-snatchings. In more
than so cases, the women were
beaten with fists. knocked to the
ground or kicked. Some were
hospitalized with broken bones
or severe cuts.
A Star survey of the most vi
Icious cases showed that in all
most every instance. the women
victims were within a block or
two of their homes \ hen at
tackled.
i Protection Demand Grows
Telephone operators and nurses
reporting for night work, elderly
women returning from church.
women laden with packages and
Government workers on their
way home from evening meetings
were among the victims.
Their experience lies behind
the demands of their friends and
neighbors for more protection.
The demands are taking the
form of resolutions, letters and
visits to members of Congress.
Since the legislation was in
troduced for a police force Of
not less than $500 men, the
Iwomen's groups have focused
on that bill. Several spokesmen
for women's clubs said they
planned to be in the House gall
lery tomorrow to see what hap
pens when the bill comes up for
action on the House floor.
A survey by The Star showed
that the women's groups acted
individually in calling for more
police protection and were not
aware that other groups were
doing the same thing.
Night Meetings Curtailed
Some of the resolutions passed
by women's clubs over the past
few months refer to members of
their own groups attacked on the
street or victimized by purse
Isnatchers. Some club officials
told The Star they had to aban-
don night meetings because the
women were afraid to go out
alone at night.

Kefauver Is Set
To Start Race
In Florida Test
Three-Duy Campaign
For State Delegates
Will Begin on April z
BY GOULD LINCOLN

Senator Estes Kefauver Of
Tennessee, riding the crest Of a
success wave in New Hampshire
and Minnesota primaries, will go
into Florida April 2 for a three
day drive for that States %
delegate votes in the Democratic
National Convention next Au-
gust. The primary takes place
May 30.
This, the next major primary
in which Senator Kefauver
meets Adlai Stevenson head on
in their quest for the Democratic
presidential nomination, may
cast light on the oft-repeated as
sertion that the South will not
stand for Kefauver." Mr.. Ste
venson, until his defeat in Min
nesota last Tuesday. was given
a decided edge in Florida. The
situation there was described
yesterday as fluid" with the
Kefauver forces on the upgrade.
Reports of Kefauver strength
in two other Southern States,
where important party leaders
have indicated their support for
the Tennessean, have been re-
ceived at his campaign head
quarters here, it was learned.
Meanwhile, from California,
Senator Kefauver announced his
entry into the South Dakota
primary. which takes place June
5. He is expected soon to an
nounce his entry into the Mon

Enduring Hard Schedule
His name has been entered in
the April "a Alaska primary-as
has that of Mr.. Stevenson. Ke-
fauver supporters there are beg
ging for him to spend just one
day in the Territory before the
vote is taken. Alaska has six
delegate votes.
F. Joseph (Jiggs) Donohue.
Kefauver'S national campaign
manager, who returned from
California yesterday. said that a
principal worry was to so ar
range the Senator's schedule that
it would not break him down
physically.
Senator Kefauver arrives in
the early morning hours at a
scheduled place." Mr.. Donohue
said, "and he is kept going with

later. This happens day after

he will win the California pri-

are supporting Stevenson.

However, many Democrats
