12. The Guardian, Charlottetown, Tues, Feb. 6, 1963, } | | Strom Thurmend of South | Carelina is mileading Senate exponent of the right - wing view. In this third in a se- ries of four stories on U.S. ultra - conservatives. his theories and background are examined. By RELMAN MORIN NEW YORK ‘AP) — Senator Strom Thurmond of South Caro- lina is an intense. nose-to-the- grindstone man with convictions that parallel, to a considerable degree. the doctrines of the jmany new groups on the far | right. { “I’m not a member of the John Birch Society or any of those organizations,’’ Thurmond Says. ‘I understand they are | against communism and I'm for His mail bags bulge with ap- Plauding literature. He is in great demand by them a: a speaker. If the hundreds of new rightist organizations ever unite and form a major political party. Thurmond might well be their first choice for president. INQUIRY SET UP Thurmond was the _ prime mover in the present Senate in- vestigation into charges _ that U.S. military men have been “muzzeld’"’ from -speaking out against Communist influence in the United States. This lies near the core of the beliefs that agitate the rightist groups and the senator. They assert that Communists have infiltrated the federal gov- ernment a A touch of beauty was added to this row of homes in North Bay, Ont’, when the tempera-, ture hovered between 30 and 35 degrees below zero at night.

John McNeill, staff photographer with the Nugget, Convict Says He's Certain Bomb Aboard Lost Airliner Written for The AP (Copyrighted by the Times Herald 1962) By EDMUND A, BARKER DALLAS, Tex. *AP) — A con- vict told me he believes a bomb undoubtedly was .aboard the National Airlines plane that vanished into the Gulf of Mex- feo with 42 persons aboard Nov. 16. 1959. . Robert. Vernon ‘Spears, now in Aleatraz Prison,, says he watched a confederate walk’ ~Jnto the airliné~ terminal at Tampa, Fla., with a packaged bomb under his arm and head for the doomed airliner. Spears said, however, he didn't think the bomb went off but that something else hap- pened to the plane. ’ In Dallas, the FBI‘ said it would have no comment on the Spears’ statement Spears, a 67-year-old Dallas naturopath who had insured his life foi $121,000, disappeared af- ter the tragedy. Since he was on the passenger list and had validated his own ticket it was Dallas 41 wthers. Insurance ‘companies were preparing to pay claims when FBI agents captured Spears at a Phoenix, Ariz., mo- tel, Jan. 20. 1960. _ FormerHeadhunters Show He is in Alcatraz Prison, iron- ieally serving time for stealing the car of his confederate, Wil- liam Allen Taylor, and is eligi- ble for parole. TAYLOP ON PLANE Authorities learned that Tay- lor wa: on the plane through a $37,506 insurance policy he pur- chased minutes before boarding the girliner. Spear. first told me of the bomb in a taped interview Nov. 17, 1960—a year and a day af- ter the plane went down. He re- peated it to me Nov. 29, 1960. He ‘said he gave Taylor $850 as a loan before he boarded the plane. The tape recordings of my interviews have been studied ever since by the FBI and de- partment of justice but not dis- closed before this time so that investigators would not be ham- pered. Spears told me this story: Taylor, 61 - year - old Tampa, Fia.. Spears, made the bomb at Spears’ request. Spears ex- plained he needed a bomb to “take care’ of a woman wit- ness’ who intended to testify * that tire salesman, who had Said Taylor had a two with” timer—to~connect—the bomb against him in an abortion trial at Los Angeles. Spears and Taylor met in Tan pa a few days before the tragedy and Taylor intended to drive his own car to Dallas be- fore. the two men went on to’ _the west coast HAD SORE NECK Spears claimed that Taylor said he was suffering from a sore neck and shoulder and asked to ride on the plane. The two drove to the airport shortly before midnight. Spears went to the. airport and vali- dated the ticket. He came out and gave the ticket to Taylor. Taylor had a small suitcase could be carried on the plane. The bomb was in a. rec- tangular package on the back seat of the car. The last Spears saw of Tay- lor was as Taylor walked through the door of the airport terminal carrying the small suitcase and with the package tucked. under his arm. Spears hour After the plane disappeared. only tiny bits of wreckage could be found in the gulf. Then in- vestigators learned that Taylor had bought the insurance.

Eight -provincial societies. all except those in Quebec and Newfoundland, have ratified the constitution of the new associa- tion ‘ “Officers of the national execu- tive are: Msgr. Joseph E. Lefort.

(CP)—The Brit- ish government is. going to ask Princess Margaret what is to be done with her island , in the Gulf of Georgia. Recreation Minister Farle Westwood recently told an of- ficial of the Victoria Out- board Motor Boat Club that he would urge Premier W. A. C. Bennett to write asking if, as planned, the is- land should be developed as a provincial marine park, a club spokesman disclosed Satur- day. —The provincial government purchased 545 - acre Portland Island in the Gulf of Georgia in 1958. Later the same year, when Princess Margaret came here to mark provincial cen- tenniak celebrations. she was given the deed to the island The idea was that. with her consent, the island was to be developed as a marine park and re-named Princess Mar- garet Island. But nothing further was heard from the Princess Government officials had expected she would return the deed with instructions to de- velop the island as planned for the benefit of the people of the province. Thurmond says: “I'd just say it would be amazing if some of them hadn't gotten into positions in our government.”’ But he pre- fers the term, ‘‘silent socialists.” Working in the second eche- lons of government, he contends, “these people exert a tremen- dous and undue influence on policy.” SEEN AS CONSPIRACY The far rightist sees a great conspiracy to deliver the United States into Communist bondage. Thurmond sees what he calls a ‘ne win policy. and he says left wingers in government have sold President Kennedy on it, The basic proposition of this policy, he says, is that the United States cannot win a total victory over the Communists in the cold war. His face flushes as he barks, indignantly. “Why not? Why should we start off with a defeatist proposition like this Even more indignantly, he says a leftist - inspired ‘‘policy of paralysis’’ prevents the United States from taking ac- tion against the Castro regime in Cuba and from having achieved a clear-cut victory in the. Korean War. Helps You Overcome : FALSE TEETH Looseness and Worry No longer be annoyed or feel {!!-at- ease because of loose. wobbly false teeth.

That's ' our policy today — don't do any- thing for fear of antagonizing somebody “We are trying to win a pop ularity contest in the world and instead losing the respect ot the world.” SHARED BY MILITARY Many U.S. military men share this view. Thurmond is a mili- tary man. He volunteered for the army on the day the US. entered the Second War. He went in as a lieutenant of infantry and came out a lieutenant colonel. He was wounded in Normandy on D-Day. He has 16 medals, dec- orations and awards for military service.
