May 7. 1959] A GATEWAY AoAIr Wouldnt it be a splended idea to use Ellis Island as a training center for American executives who are going overseas to work? The suggestion is certainly arresting. but it will come to nothing unless Franklin G. Floete. chief of the General Services Administration. decides against selling the island to a private bidder. This Friday the place which served as a gateway for millions of immigrants may be sold to a Yonkers businessman who plans to turn the island- into an/amusement park. The reason why the island was placed on the auction block is that no public purpose was found for its use. At the last minute.
