MIAMI DAILY NEWS, Saturday, January 28, 1956 3A Miami an Lost Track Brother. Sister Visit First Time In 45 Years MAYOR OF LAUDERDALE INVITES IKE fOR STAY Possibility of President Eisenhower visiting Fort Lauderdale appeared today "better than fifty-fifty," according to Forrest Crane, Lauderdale's publicity director. A formal invitation to the President, including the use of an island mansion, two yachts and other conveniences, was dispatched by Mayor Porter Reynolds yesterday.

The same source indicated that Eisenhower did not plan to return to Key West.

A gainst Lab By SANFORD SCHNIER Miami Kta'f Mrllrr When Harry Claypool came to Miami in 1911 to pairt the new Deering Estate, he didn't realize it would be 45 years before he saw any member of his family again. Last week, Harry, 70, of 7528 NE 3rd held a joyous reunion with his sister, Mrs.

Laura Kaufman, 64, of Newark, Ohio. Mr. Kaufman and her husband, Bert, a machine designer for Owens Corning Fiberglass are visiting Harry and his wife, Annie, for two weeks. "It's a wonderful feeling to see your own flesh and blood again and know you're not alone," said Mrs. Kaufman.

Harry and Laura had two other brothers and two sisters, but now they're the only ones left. When Harry arrived in Miami he gradually lost contact with the family. "I'd write once in a while, but after the folks died, the letter-writing stopped." Harry married twice, lie had no children. Mrs. Kaufman and her husband have three children and five grandchildren.

For 44 years Harry never left Miami. But last summer he and his wife took a pleasure trip through the Midwest and Canada. Stopping in his home town of Mt. Vernon, Ohio, to see if any sisters or brothers were still alive, Harry ran into an old friend who told him that his sister Laura was living in Newark, 23 miles from there. The friend dispatched a letter to Laura, but the reunion was delayed as the Claypools continued their trip.

Laura wrote to her brother in Miami. "I couldn't believe it," she said, "after all those years." She wrote him twice a week since July and she and her husband planned the trip to see him. "It's a funny thing, too," she reported.

"I guess we slobbered all over each other because we were so glad to finally get together, "Mrs. Kaufman said.

"It's not a thing that happens every day." "From now on though, we're going to keep in cloiie touch," she said, "and Harry and his wife are going to visit us next summer." 0 DEMETREE'S RETURN Officer's Iee Rocheford, J. Faulds Photo by R. E. Merke 3 In Halloween Masks Get $5 In Hotel Holdup By SANFORD SCHNIER Miami Ntwi Stuff Writer Jimmy Demetree, notorious bawdy house operator who swore he'd "never do it again" on his release from 10 months in jail for violating the state's anti-prostitution laws, was picked up on the same old charge today. The rotund, 49-year-old innkeeper was arrested on a charge of procuring for prostitution.

In addition, he was charged with assaulting a police officer and interfering with an officer in line of duty. He was arrested at 1:30 a.m. at the Edison Hotel, formerly the Demetree Hotel, 339 NW 4th by detectives E. Hall and P. A.

Nichols. An undercover agent checked into the hotel for $4 and was told by Demetree that he'd "send a girl up soon." Shortly thereafter a girl appeared at the officer's room, accepted $10 from him, disrobed. She was arrested. Girl Escapes When the officer brought her downstairs to get Demetree, the girl escaped through a rear exit, Demetree then "pushed him and jostled, him," the officer reported. On his release from jail, Demetree was quoted as saying he intended merely to operate a res- laurani ai me nuiei.

'Had Change Of Heart' Demetree added that he'd had a change of, heart while at the stockade on burial detail. He said he'd been going to church regularly and "in a way I really enjoyed it. I think I learned more in a year out there than in the rest of the time on the outside." Two other persons were arrested earlier in a similar raid at the Pan American Hotel, 27 NE 2nd Ave.

Charged with offering herself for prostitution was Florence Kazmarczyk, 22, of 927 NW 4th St. Lorenzo Brown, Negro, 43, bellhop at the hotel, was booked for procuring for prostitution. Detective Hall reported Brown brought the woman to the hotel room of a police agent at midnight. The woman accepted a marked $20 bill and disrobed and the officer arrested her.

Curtice brushed off comment by George Meany, AFL-CIO president, criticizing American industrialists' sales to Iron Curtain countries.

Curtin steadfastly maintained that there was no falsifying of reports, so far as he knew.

According to O'Connell, in only one instance substantial proof has been submitted tht the report was falsified. "In most instances, the company failed to make any report at all," he said. The allegedly altered report concened steel and concrete used in a large Miami shopping center building. The faulty steel and" concrete, which failed to meet Miami building requirements, was discovered by another testing laboratory before the structure was finished.

PMKIUZ SfACE rot 1 70 cn 1 i I i materials used in several Victory Claim Setback Is Denied By Union Bert Ross, chief strategist for the'hotel union, said today that contrary to popular impression, yesterday's Circuit Court decision was not a setback for the union.

In fact, Ross declared, "we won the suit." Judge William Herin yesterday dissolved a temporary injunction prohibiting the AFL-CIO Hotel Employes Union from picketing the Fontaine-bleau Hotel. In doing so, he issued a writ of supersedeas banning picketing until Monday when the hotel must post a $5,000 supersedeas bond prior to appealing the case to the Florida Supreme Court. "In our other suits the injunctions were upheld, but this throws the case in the laps of the hotel owners," Ross declared. He also based his "victory" claim on admissions by the judge that the union represented, more than 200 of the Fon-taineblcau's 1,000 employes when the strike was called Dec. 21, and that sufficient notice was given before the walkout took effect.

Ross also maintained the decision of the National Labor Relations Board not to take jurisdiction "was no surprise." Yesterday, the board, for the third time, refused to enter the 10-months-old hotel labor dispute. "The board has to remain consistent pending our Federal Circuit Court suit requesting an injunction against the NLRB to show cause why it shouldn't take jurisdiction," Ross said.

2nd Avenue, Miami, Florida ASSETS By JACK W. ROBERTS Mliml Staff Hrltrr The president of General Motors makes better than $600,000 a year in salary and bonuses, but it's the things money can't buy which cause him the most trouble. The dapper and poised Harlow H. Curtice paused for a few minutes in Miami on his way to Bimini and conf'dcd that his real ambition is to catch a big bonefish. "I caught one once that weighed 11 or 12 pounds," said Curtice.

"But I want to get a really big one." The trip to Bimini for bone-fishing is an annual luxury the president of the world's largest corporation allows himself before the start of GM's huge Motorama show in Miami. 'Gold Plat Special' Curtice arrived in his private plane the "Gold Plate Special" late yesterday at International Airport, shook semal dozen hands and transferred to an amphibious plane owned by his Eimini hrst, Albert Lyon, millionaire wheel di manufacturer.
