The first start of mutorizatlon took place in 1917 when a hose truck was purchased. Today the combined force, of the Charlotte- town Flre Department can dis- charge 4.000 gallons a minute. The demands on the department can be seen when it is shown that in 1890, calls answered were 1-1, while in 1953 the number re- sponded to was 215."

New Charges As Me

By ED CREAGII WASHINGTON iAPl - The hotly debated Irving Peress case churned up a couple of upheavals in the McCai-thy censure row Mon-

day-followed by a Democrat's statement that Senator Joseph McCarthy ought to be thrown out of the Senate.

The expulsion suggestion was made by Senator Samuel Ervln iDem.-N. 0). who accused Mc-

Cai-thy of making ”foul and fan- tastic charges" against the com- mittee that recommended he be censured. But Ervin said he would not formally move that McCarthy be ousted.

Ervin spoke after Scnalor Fran- cis Case (Rep.-S. DJ. in member of the six-man committee that rec- ommended censure of the Wiscon- sin Republican. announced he will vote against rebiiking McCarthy on one of two pending charges.

Case said new evidence supplied by Army Secretary Robert Stevens convinces him McCarthy should not be censured for alleged abu- sive treatment of Brig.-Gen. Ralph W. Zwicker when Zwickcr testified on the Army's handling of the Peress casi-.

Case said it now is evident that high Army officials ”let Peress slip out of their grasp." and gave him an honorable discharge in- stead of a court-martial. even after a court-niartial demand from Mc- Carthy was dellvered to the tires- ponsible Army staff."

REFUSED TO ANSWER

Peress, a dentist, was promoted in the Army and then honorably discharged although he pleaded possible self-incrimination in ie- fusing to answer questions asked by McCarthy about possible Com- munist. associations. I

The chairman of the censure committee. Senator Arthur Wat- kins (Rep.-Utah). sought to pull the rug from under McCarthy's "who promoted Peress?" cam- paign. Watkins said McCarthy himself can readily dig out the answer on the basis of Information already supplied by the Army.

Denying thin. McCarthy declared the Army is still shielding "the secret master" who promoted Per- esa and then rushed through the discharge which made a court- martlal impossible.

McCarthy and Watkins clashed at a hearing of McCarthy's investi- gations sub-committee which Pre- ceded ihe censure debate on the Senate floor.

Watkins told iMcCarthy it may were he nobody is "criminally" guilty in the Army's handling of

Carthy Censure

Debate Continues In U. S. Senate

McCarthy replied any senator who holds that view is ”derelict in his duty."

”I don't believe you can ever be satlslfed," Watkins shot back. "unless you can find some one who could be shot or hung."
