Sen. Aiken Says Attacks
On Dulles by Democrats
Are Effort to Destroy Him
WASHINGTON UB—Seat. Aiken j
(R-Vt) told Secretary of State
Dulles today that Democratic at
tacks might he construed as “a
concerted effort to destroy you,
politically and personally.”
Speaking out at Senate hear
ings on the administration’s Mid
dle East resolution, Aiken said
some of the questioning of Dulles
by Democratic senators “has gone
far beyond the point of construc
tive criticism.”
Dulles told Aiken that some
times he thought the “impact” of
the resolution has been lost be
cause the hearing has “.gone thru
such a great mass of details.”
Earlier in the hearing, Dulles
had bumped into a demand for
assurance that Britain and France
would support the United States
in event of hostilities in the Mid
dle East.
When the Wind’s Right
Whale Will Be Burned
BLOCK ISLAND, R. I„ UP)—
Town officals have figured out
what to do with the 60-foot whale
which was blown ashore last
Monday night.
Because there isn’t enough
beach to bury it, authorities de
cided to baste it with kerosene,
pile driftwood around it and burn
it. They said they’ll wait until the
wind is blowing away from the
town to do the job.
WASHINGTON, UP)—President

Whiskey Drinker
Downs 20 Slugs
In Court Test
He Stayed Sober,
Hopes to Prove
Drunkometer Wrong
MIAMI, Fla., Of)—William Rose,
who drinks his whiskey straight
—and often—proved in court he
can down 20 slugs without getting
drunk.
Whether he drank himself scott
free of a drunken driving charge
still is undetermined. City Court
Judge Francis A. Sobieski said
after Wednesday’s courtroom ex
hibition that he probably will
•hand down a decision today.
Rose hoped to prove that a
reading by the city’s drunkometer
was no accurate measure of a
man’s ability to hold his liquor
and still drive a car safely.
His Daily Pint
The 44-year-old manager of an
apartment house, who likes his
pint of spirits every day, was ar
rested Dec. 15. Tested toy the
drunkometer, his reading came
up .246. A person who gets a
reading of .150—which indicates
150/100s of 1 percent (.015%) of
alcohol in the bloodstream—is
considered drunk within the
meaning of the law.
Sobieski agreed to let the 238
pound Miamian drink to a .246
reading in his courtroom after
Rose and his attorneys challenged
the accuracy of the drunkometer.
Rose came in for the drinking
bout with three pints of an 86
proof blended whiskey. After
taking a series of visual and re
action tests in lieu of an actual
driving test, Rose began hitting
the bottle.
Talking Much Louder
He drank almost a pint and a
half in about 4Vi hours. He had
several cups of coffee during that
time and half a sandwich at
lunch.
But he never got drunk. The
Judge halted the tippling test af
ter the 20th shot and Rose took
a drunkometer test. The reading
was .122, shy of the “drunk” min
imum and less than half the
reading officers reported the
night he was arrested.
At this point he was slurring
his words a bit and talking much
louder, but he still was able to
navigate without any particular
stagger or sway.
