Anaheim Photographer Returns Home After Expedition to Spanish Main
Leland W. Hansen, associate of John D. Craig Productions, returned this week to his home at 515 North Los Angeles St., after completing an adventurous photographic expedition following the trails of the early Spanish Buccaneers through the historic Caribbean — better known in olden days as the Spanish Main.
They filmed historic sites, explored sunken wrecks, and charted the undersea fairylands of coral forests where vividly hued fish make their homes.
The crew of diving technicians cruised the waters of some of the best known pirate strongholds — Tortugas, Jamaica, the Marquesas, Port Royal, the Keys—all historic sites once famed in "Treasure Island Tales".
Starting from their base in the Florida Keys, the expedition journeyed to Cuba, then on to Discovery Bay, Jamaica where they explored a mysterious and forgotten lake. The surface layer being of cool ocean water—the center layer of warm salt (sea) water and the bottom layer of a weird milky cold salt water. Many other parts of the island rich in history and adventure were photographed with both still and motion picture cameras.
After three weeks in Jamaica they navigated to Key West to take on stores and then into the Gulf Stream to photograph the one-time pirate headquarters and Fort Jefferson at Dry Tortugas and to explore the seldom-visited desert islands of the Gulf of Mexico. It was off one of these islands the lensmen dived on one of the most picturesque wrecks ever found. It was the wreck of an old French sailing schooner which went down in 1900.
During the last of the three-month expedition they cruised the Florida Keys to discover many of the old sunken ships of the early 1700's and to retrieve an ancient anchor, believed to be one of the anchors of the "Lloe" an English Man-of-War which was blown onto the reef, in the dark of night in 1743. It was on this site where one of the crew was forced to fight off a huge attacking shark while dozens of Barracuda kept watch waiting for a chance to move in on the divers.
Craig and his crew had a plane, a speedy 85 foot yacht capable of doing 40 knots, equipped with every type of modern diving gear and cameras of all kinds for motion pictures and still photographs. They used two glass bottomed boats to aid in their selection of submarine locations.
With this romantic region of the fabulous Spanish Main, good water abounding in game fish and menacing sharks, and the use of modern diving equipment and camera gear, they feel sure they will have an outstanding motion picture in which high adventure in a gay bright region and where color and drama abound.

Poles Say Catholic Priest Admits U. S. Spy Ring
LONDON (UP)—Warsaw radio told today a Roman Catholic priest testifying at a treason trial disclosed that clergymen had op-posed an American financed spy center in Red Poland.
The broadcast said the Rev. Jan Aniliewicz told the Warsaw military tribunal trying him, Bishop Wieslaw Kaczmarek, two other jests and a nun, that the network covered 22,000 square miles. Aniliewicz was alleged to have stifled that Maczmarek's spy enter included a radio station, ins and grenades and gathered formation in four provinces mak.
ing up one-fifth of Poland's area.
The "final aim" of the campaign was to overthrow the Communist government in Poland to fulfill the wishes of the United States and the Vatican, according to the broadcast.
Warsaw radio said Daniliewicz and the late August Cardinal Hlond in 1945 to set up the spy center. That was the year Kaczmarek testified he heard U. S. Ambassador Arthur Bliss Lane say the U.S. state Department wanted vital data on Poland.
Military, industrial and other information obtained by the ring was smuggled out of Poland to the Vatican which, in turn, funneled it to the United States through Francis Cardinal Spellman the radio said.
Kaczmarek, Rev. Wladysław Widlak and the nun, sister Waleria Niklewska, have already pleaded guilty to "espionage, anti-state propaganda and diversionary activity" against Poland.
A third priest, Rev. Jozef Dombrowski, probably will testify tomorrow and wind up the trial with the now familiar confession and self denunciation which has come to feature the trials of Roman Catholic clerics behind the Iron Curtain.

Kuchel Advocates Way to Restore Nation's Solvency
LOS ANGELES (UP) — Sen. Thomas H. Kuchel (R-Calif.), co-author of a bill providing that the federal government's spending program be submitted to Congress or approval each year, today advocated the measure as one means to restore the nation's solvency.
Kuchel spoke at the 63rd annual convention of the California Savings and Loan League.
He said that as of last Jan. 1, the total balance of unspent appropriations by previous Congresses still available for federal government spending amounted to $140,946,698.
"That's quite a little piece of money just hanging around, year in and year out," Kuchel said. "It makes a mockery of the high sounding theory that Congress annually determines this country's spending policy."
Kuchel said that as co-author of the bill sponsored by Sen. Harry Byrd (D-Va) he believes the measure "represents one constructive means of re-establishing by law proper fiscal controls and hastening the return of national solvency."
In an address delivered by Fred T. Greene, president of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indiana, savings and loan associations were characterized as "business institutions which have more than the ordinary degree of public interest."
Greene said the associations "perform a service which helps to build the character of the citizens of the community by encouraging economic independence through savings and home ownership."
