Geiger said the scene of the crash was 1.6 miles from SR 484 on a dirt road leading through a cattle ranch. The wreckage was on the road.

The air hunt stretched from Florida's Gulf Coast to the Atlantic Ocean. The area generally is ranges from open, country to sparsely settled a and the terrain wooded areas, including Ocala National Forest. The plane was last reported seen about 9:30 p.m. Sunday, just after its radio message was received. p.m.

Heavy rain fell in much of the area, overnight and the ceiling Monday was low. Widener, who has a thoroughbred horse farm at Ocala and interests in pedigree dogs, served as sheriff of Palm Beach County, August 1961 to June 1962.

He also was a deputy constable in Fayette County, for six years, a volunteer county patrolman nine months; and chief of the Fayette County Patrol seven months. He was appointed commissioner of Kentucky State Police by Gov. A. B. Chandler and a year later became that state's first Commissioner of Public Safety.

Widener resigned as Sheriff to return to private business. He has homes here and in Palm Beach. Funeral services for Mrs. Widener will be noon Friday at Bethesda-By-The-Sea Episcopal Church, Palm Beach, conducted by its rector, Rev. J.

L. B. Williams. Friends may call at the church Thursday. The family has requested donations to the cancer fund in lieu of flowers.

Medfly Spraying Will Continue No new Mediterranean fruit flies have been found in Palm Beach County, but spraying in the Boynton Beach area will continue Thursday. Ray A. Long, district supervisor for the Division of Plant Industry, Florida Dept. of Agriculture, said Thursday's spraying will be the second in an 11-week schedule. The only Medfly known in the county recently was a dead female, found in a trap along Pierson Drive, south of Boynton Beach last week.

Long said the Division of Plant Industry is taking no chances, however. He said 1,727 traps have now been set in the coastal area and that the number will be raised to 3,000.

Daves charged that on Dee. Martin Zuckerman, 34, of 1327 Vie1 toria Drive, Lake Worth, counterfelted the note in the names of Leon G. Leathermon and Dorothy S. Leathermon. The note called for them to pay the $10,800 to Sherman Galin at the rate of 10 per cent a until I maturity, The solicitor said Zuckerman made the note with intent to defraud the trio.

He also charged Zuckerman made out a phony mortgage deed. Zuckerman was accused further of publishing the note and deed as true to Guardian Title and Abstract Company. Asst. County Solicitor Billy Jacksoll said Zuckerman's scheme was uncovered when the abstract company called Leathermon and told him more fees were needed to close the deal. Leathermon said he didn't know anything about a mortgage.

Jackson said the mortgage was on Leathermon's home at 165 Harvard Drive in Lake Worth. Zuckerman turned himself in at county jail Monday night and was released on $2,000 bond pending an appearance in Criminal Court Feb. 19. Speaker Argentine, U.S. Parallels Drawn By BOB STEWART Palm Beach Post Staff "The Argentine and the United States have a number of things in common, including ancestry, Dr.

Roberto T. Alemann, Argentine Ambassador to the United States, told the Palm Beach Round Table Monday at the Everglades Club. Speaking on the subject "Argentina and the Inter American tem," the speaker made comparisons in the history of the two countries, particularly between the years 1860 and 1930, when a great period of expansion was being experienced by each. "Argentinian development was carried out by Europeans, and was the second greatest expansion next to that of the United States in North America," he said. "Both countries were blessed with outstanding leadership.

Education was foremost at this time of expansion and we brought in teachers from Boston to improve our system." In Buenos Aires, he said there is now only 2 per cent illiteracy, and the country has 12 great universities. Turning to agriculture, he pointed out that a great portion of the country was devoted to the raising of cattle and grain, which was exported to Europe. The speaker said that this export of the country's products con- Deaths And Funerals EARL CHESTER BLAKE Mr. Blake, 74, of 3301 Broadway, RIviera Beach, died Sunday night at his residence.

Rogers said the demands for U.S. leadership are mounting: that congressional offices "are bulging with mail urging action on Cuba and almost daily there are calls for action across the nation. "Latin America shows an increasing impatience with U.S. inaction as said the Florida Democrat, "and the Organization of American States (OAS) is waiting to support U.S.

Initiative." He then referred to an announcement by Secretary of State Dean Rusk that the DAS now is considering several of Rugers' recommendations made recently in a speech in the House. "These recommendations under OAS study are the ban on movement of Castro agents throughout Latin America and the freezing of Cuban government funds now on deposit in Latin American finanInstitutions. said Rogers. Slippery Streets Spark Outbreak Of Accidents Rain brought slippery streets, poor visibility and a rash of traffie accidents to the West Palm Beach area Monday. Capt.

Gilbert Coerper of the city police department's traffic vision noted that had headlights been used by drivers during the rain, the number of accidents might have been greatly reduced. State law calls for use of headlights not parking lights during rain, Coerper said. Sidney L. Grovenstein, 72, of 1007 Upland Road, West Palm Beach, was treated at Good Samaritan Hospital for minor les he received in a two-car collision about 9:10 a.m. on Lake Avenue near Street.

He was not admitted to the hospital. Just minutes before, Grovenstein had been involved in another two-car collision, this one head-on, on Okeechobee Road near Dixie Highway. Investigating Patrolman C. E. Brady Jr.

said that Grovenstein had left the scene of the first accident, but then was identified by the driver of the other car who had gotten Grovenstein's vehicle license number. Grovenstein, headed west on Okeechobee, crossed the double center line and ran head-on into a car driven by Charles A. Cassa, 73, of Newark West Palm Beach. Brady said that Grovenstein would be charged with causing an accident by driving on the wrong side of the road and leaving the scene of an accident if Cassa, the other driver, swears out a warrant against him. Several minutes after the first accident Grovenstein lost control of his car on Lake Avenue near Street while he was wiping the fog off his windshield and hit a parked car owned by Lou M.

Ryan Iris West Palm Beach, police said. Grovenstein was taken to Good Samaritan Hospital for treatment. He was charged with careless driving by striking a parked car and having no valid driver's li- No Shipments (Continued from Page One) posed to crossing picket lines of the off train groups because the strike is regarded as legal under provisions of the Railway Labor Act. The non operating groups walked off their jobs after the FEC refused a 10.28-cents an hour wage boost granted similar employes on other railroads on a national level last year. FEC officials said they couldn't afford to pay the increase and subsequently withdrew a counter offer which they said would amount on an average to more than the union was asking.

The struck rail line resumed limited operations Friday night after lifting a part of its self-imposed freight embargo. At the same time it began moving into the Jacksonville Terminal the first of some 2,000 empty freight cars left on the FEC system when the strike started. The Terminal the Atlantic Coast Line and the Seaboard Air Line Railroads, which had legally opposed the acceptance of the cars, said the lifting of the freight ban left them with no alternative under the Inter. state Commerce Act but to receive the cars in interchange. Within the limits of the modified embargo, other rail lines also have to place freight routed via FEC to points south of Jacksonville on interchange tracks north of the St.

Johns River. The Terminal with the Coast Line and Seaboard, fought the acceptance of FEC cars in U.S. District Court proceedings last week. When District Judge W. A.

MeRae Jr. issued an injunction directing the terminal to take the 2,000 cars while the embargo was still in effect, the terminal, Coast Line and Seaboard got a stay order from Judge Warren L. Jones of the Circuit Court of Appeals. They said they feared movement of the cars might cause a Jacksonville rail tieup if the unions extended their picket lines. The unions, however, have restricted their picketing at the terminal to an entrance used by FEC workers.

Wyckoff estimated less than 300 of the stranded freight cars had been moved off the FEC system. I cense in his possession. Investigating patrolman in this accident was John F. Ferns. Damage to Grovenstein's car was estimated at $400, to the Ryan car $100, to Casa's car, $100.

In an accident Monday at 2:02 p.m. on N. Flagler Drive near 15th Joan McCaughey, 29, of 209 Westwind Road, North Palm Beach, complained of injury and was taken to a physician. She was a passenger in a car driven by Joseph A. McCaughey, 30, also of 409 Westwind Road.

The McCaughey vehicle was stopped on Flagler when a car driven by Anna Ludwig Kern, 56, of 429 Driftwood Road, North Palm Beach, skidded on wet pavement and struck the McCaughey car. The McCaughey car then struck a car stopped in front of it, but the third car left the scene. Mrs. Kern was charged with careless driving causing an accident. Gail Louise Kile, 25, of 3205 Windsor West Palm Beach, was treated at Good Samaritan Hospital for injuries she received in a two-car accident at 6:56 a.m.

Monday on N. Dixie at 30th Street. Miss Kile, traveling east on 30th Street, ran a stop sign and was struck by a truck traveling south on Dixie and driven by Curtis Brinson, 46, of 801 Charles Riviera Beach, police said. She was charged with causing an accident by failure to stop for a stop sign. Two Challenge (Continued from Page One) law directly violated the state Constitution.

The judge set a hearing for 11:30 a.m. today. Jones said the Constitution provided for Legislature of 38 senators and 95 House members and that the Legislature had no authority to fix any different numbers. He also asked the judge to enjoin the Legislature from holding the 1963 regular session because it would be illegally made up under the new plan. The state Supreme Court issued an advisory opinion which lacks the force of a formal decision last week, saying that reapportionment by law would be valid.

Last week, Judge Taylor refused to step into the reapportionment matter on petition of another state representative, William O'Neill of Marion County. Taylor said he wasn't bound by the Supreme Court's advisory opinion, but that he attached great weight to it. In the federal court at Miami, Sobel said the new plan was substantially worse than the old 46-senator, 135 representative plan accepted by the federal judges in August but rejected by the voters in November. Although the basic reapportionment plan called for 43 senators and 112 House members. the 1963 session would have senators and 125 representatives because the seats abolished wouldn't actually be vacated until the terms of the officeholders ran out.

One legal challenge to the reapportionment plan was withdrawn. Edward Vieira of Jacksonville withdrew his petition from the Florida Supreme Court after he was told by Chief Justice B. K. Roberts that the court had no jurisdiction. Under the new apportionment plan, races for the Senate would be held in the counties of Sarasota, Indian River, Oklaoosa, Monroe, Seminole, Dade and the two county district of Charlotte and Highlands.

The 30 new House seats would he distributed: 11 for Dade, four for Duval, three each for Hillsborough, Pinellas and Broward, two each for Orange and Palm Beach, and one each for Escambia and Brevard.

Rogers said adoption of the recommendations "would result in solitary confinement of Cuba within the hemisphere."

SRB Engineer Carl Hultman said by 1970, 95,000 cars a day would be pouring through the center of West Palm Beach, compared to half that number now. A freeway, Hultman said, would solve the problem, and its best location would be east of U.S.

1, Leaders asked why the freeway could not be located west of U.S. 1 instead of near the lake on some of the highest priced real estate in the county, Hultman replied that a western location would be too close to 1-95 and would not move traffic as well as an eastern drive. He said if the lake bulkhead line were moved out and the land filled, a lakeshore freeway ect might not prove too expensive, West Palm Beach officials quickly called attention to their problems in connection with moving the bulkhead line and preserving the scenic lake shore.

The basic fundamentals of his country's growth were gone, he pointed out. The ambassador covered the gradual formation of inter-American relations, which began with a conference called by the United States in the latter part of the 19th century. "New inter American laws were established and slowly over the years the system was built up," he said. "Finally in 1948 the Organization of American States was formed, and Argentina joined the regional group of countries.

It was chiefly formed to maintain peace in the Western Hemi-616 sphere, and its dream has been fulfilled in the past 15 years." A great achievement was the Inter American Bank opened in Washington in 1958, the speaker said. Touching on the Cuban crisis, Alemann said that when, on Oct. 22, Kennedy demanded that Rus- sia withdraw her missiles and dismantle her bases in Cuba, Argentina stood right behind him and had her navy ready to patrol the area within 24 hours. "We knew that the missiles would not strike Argentina but it was a spontaneous move on our part," said the ambassador. "We foresaw great danger in what had been taking place.
