Artist from ST. Cr0IX
New Workers are becoming
/ more interested in the Virgin
Islands thon they have been
in the past years, not only as
a vacation resort, but now al
so because an exciting artist
from st. Croix had her first
: showing, in New York. Socha
, Svender, a resident of Chris
tiansted, at long last had been
able to arrange for an exhibit
J of her work at the Galeria
!, Sudamericana, 866 Lexington
Avenue, New York. Twice dur
ing the past year she had been
requested to arrange for a
showing in New York, but her
work had been sold so rapid
" that it became difficult for
. her to assemble her sculptures
for a comprehensive exhibit.
The New York art critics re-
ceived her work most favor
ably. The sculptures which
, were shown provoked COM
, ments like they are ex-
; tremely potent in expression"

Stevenson Accuses
Sen. Kefauver of
'Wierd Charges
BY THE Assoc tATED PRESS

Adlai Stevenson has accused
Sen. Estes Kefauver of uttering
"weird charges" against him in an
effort to win the critical Florida
Democratic presidential primary
next Tuesday.
81 should like to remind the
nervous gentleman that there is
such a thing as wanting to be
President too much,' Stevenson
said in West Palm Beach.
What prompted this shaft at
Kefauver yesterday was the sena-
tors statement at Plant City, Fla,
calling it "a remarkable thing that
Mr.. Stevenson has been SO
strangely silent" on what Kefau-
yer called the question of grow
ing monopoly" The senator linked
this with an assertion that Steven
son represented the Radio Corp.
of America (RCA) last year in an
antitrust action which Kefauver
said was brought by the federal
government.
Stevenson retorted that Kefau-
yer is wrong again." adding:
81 have never represented the
Radio Corp. of America in an anti
trust suit brought by the govern
ment. 1t was a private suit be-
tween RCA and the Zenith Radio
Corp"
Kefauver went on the Offensive
as he and Stevenson battled to the
wire for Florida's % votes at the
Democratic presidential nominal
ing convention in August. 1t is
their only primary clash in the
South.

Stevenson and kefauver Shed
Cordially In Campaign Before
Florida Primary On Tuesday

Sen. Estes Kefauver has made a
campaign issue of Adlai Steven
sons 1851 veto of pension bill
while he was governor of Illinois.
And Stevenson has accused Ke-
fauver supporters of circulating
tscurrilous literature" against
him.
The pension issue could have
considerable impact on the out
come of the Florida Democratic
presidential primary next Tues
day and the California primary
June = both important pre-
convention tests of the relative
strength of Kefauver and Steven
