COURT ENJOINs ETHYL

NEW YORK-The Ethyl Gasoline
Corp. was enjoined by a decision
yesterday of Federal District Judge
William Bondy from requiring job
bers to procure licenses for the
handling of loaded gasoline. Case
was argued before Judge Bondy
last June on action brought by the
Justice Department which contend
ed that jobber licenses had been
used as a means of maintaining
major company resale gasoline price
structures and that EthyPs agree
ments with refiners excluding sales
to unlicensed jobbers were in re-
straint of trade.
Judge Bondy did not rule on the
price maintenance issue because The
case can be disposed on other
grounds
The decision stated, however, that
agreements between Ethyl Gasoline
Corporation and it's refiners, licen-
sees restricting the sale of treated
gasoline to those jobbers only whom
the former licenses, unreasonably
restrain trade and are violative of
the Sherman Antitrust Act

PROSPECTORS
MUST WORK OR
QUIT CLAIMS

WASHINGTON - Prospectors of
the western states and Alaska were
told to go to work or get off their
claims.
Secretary Ickes, warning that con-
gress was in no mood to pass leg
islation suspending annual assess
ment work, told the miners they had
until July l in which to do 500
of development work on their
claims. Senate and house commit
tees have shelved suspension legis-
lation proposed for this year.
Unless this work was completed
by July 1, Ickes said the claims of
miners operating on public lands
in the western states would be
subject to relocation and those in
Alaska to outright forfeiture.
Requirements for performance of
the 500 worth of labor on mining
claims as annual assessment work
were written into the 1872 mining
laws as a means of establishing the
good faith of the prospectors and
promoting the development of the
mineral resources of the country.

gold dredge works-and they found
out just about all there was to
know about it.
Taken to Porter Brothers dredge
in the valley, the royal couple
weren't content until they'd seen
every operation of the machine and
heard a detailed story of gold in
Last Chance gulch.
Bill Wells, dredge superinten-
dent, escorted the prince and prin-
cess from top to bottom of the huge
piece of machinery. and sand
wiched in, as he explained the
machinery, a good deal of inter-
esting history about the discovery
of gold around Helena and the pro-
cesses now used in its extraction.
So interested were both of them in
the dredge that secret service men
and photographers abandoned the
idea of trying to keep up with them
as they explored the dredge from
top to bottom.
At last, after about As minutes
on the machine. the prince looked
at his watch and said regretfully
that he guessed they'd have to go.
But it was obvious he didn't want
