All Is Not Gold . . .
ATLANTA UP) — There may be
gold “In them thar hills,” but not
a trace of the precious metal
could be found in a hefty 'bar un
covered on a farm in south
Georgia.
Asseyers here gave Guy Woods
the bad news Monday — the 22
ipound bar is brass and worth
only about $11. He had planned
to pay off the mortgage on his
100-acre farm if the ingot turned
out to be worth the $12,000 esti
mate some had placed on a simi
lar sized gold bar.
Tests showed the metal was an
ordinary brass ingot turned out
by factories for shaping hydrant
spigots. How it got onto Woods’
farm remains a mystery.
There is no translation for the
word “happiness” in Chinese.

ABC Board Does I
Not See Stale Going
In Liquor Business
ANCHORAGE UR — It would
l5e neither moral nor feasible for
the state to go into the liquor •
business, three members of the :
Alcoholic Beverage Control Board
said during informal discussion :
before a public hearing here yes- :
terday.
Fears were expressed recently
that there was a possibility of ;
Alaska becoming a "monopoly
state” iby operating package sales I
stores. This suggestion was made ;
by some interested party, not the -
Board, Bill Ray said.
Also on the Board and here for
the hearing are Bill Boehl from
Douglas and Keith Rischl of Ju- i
neau.
In opening statements, Ray said i
the Beard is trying to get express
ion of public interest relative to '
liquor control. Similar hearings
will be held in Nome, Fairbanks
and Juneau this week and next.
Under discussion will be club
licenses, procedure for cash-on
delivery to "dry” towns.
“It has always been the opinion
of the Board,” Ray said, “that
COD shipments are illegal.” The
recent decision handed down by
Superior Court Judge Hubert '
Gilbert concerned face to face
sales in stores, he said, not COD.
(Ray explained that he did not
think any town in a “wet” state
can be considered "dry.” The
Board, according to local option,
will not issue liquor licenses for
retail trade. Residents may still
possess liquor, he said.
It is legal lor Individuals to re- 1
ceive up to five wine gallons by!
prepaid shipment of alcoholic
beverages anywhere in the state.
I Changing this regulation, Ray said,
| would require legislative action.
I Risehl said more enforcement
■ on the local level is needed in the
problem of liquor sales in “dry”
towns.
The decision by Gilbert — given
in connection with a liquor burg
lary case in Kotzebue—to curb
shipment of liquor COD was
merely “dkrtim,” Ray said, and
is not law.

U.S. Communist Party
NEW YORK — Elizabeth
Gurley Finn won’t say if she is
still national chairman of the
Communist party of the USA, but
she made clear she intends to con
tinue her activities as a party
member.
The party has been indicted
for failing to register with the

the Soviet Union.
Addressing a Monday night
rally on behalf of the Communist
newspaper, The Worker, Miss

sons should retire from their party
posts to make way for new blood.
Asked about her own post, Miss
Flynn replied: “At the present
time, I can’t discuss the party
post. It’s in legal litigation now.”
Then she added: “At least you
see I’m not underground.”
