Minkoff Free 10 Continue
Business Pending Ru|inq

Despite modification of a re-
straining order. Hyman Minkofi
today was still free to conduct his
liquor business in the 1400 block
OF North Capitol street, pending
further court litigation on re-
fusal of the Alcoholic Beverage
Control Board to renew his license
Wednesday.
The board refused to renew the
license after receiving information
that Mr.. Minkof had been indicted
last year on charges of falsifying
entries in his books regarding
sales of liquor to alleged North
Carolina bootleggers.
The indictment was dismissed
last year on Government motion
after Mr.. Minkoff agreed to pay
$1,000 to the Bureau of Internal
Revenue.
District Court Judge Edward A.
Tamm Thursday issued a tenn
porary restraining order against
the ABC Board to prevent it from
stopping Mr.. Minkof from con-
ducting business. Yesterday Judge
Tamm modified the order, after
Assistant Corporation Counsel
Oliver Gasch pointed out the order
would require the ABC Board to
issue license.
Meanwhile, through agreement
OF counsel, Mr.. Minkof is to be
allowed to operate.

Arms for Indo-China
BY the Associated Press

The United States was reported
today to be working out a gener-
Gus response to French pleas for
a speedup of arms shipments to
Communist-menaced Indo-China.
Negotiations to hasten NUM-
tions deliveries already scheduled
have been going on since the meet
ings this week of President Tru-
man and French Premier Rene
Pleven. American officials indi-
Gated they have accepted the
French contention that the next
four months will be critical in the
defense of the Southeast Asia
land.
Between now and June the
French and their Wet Nam allies
face the prospect of further major
attacks by Moscow-trained Ho
Chi Minis forces, along with the
continuing threat of intervention
by Chinese volunteers. Heavy
monsoon rains which normally be-
gin in June would halt large scale
military operations in the rice
growing province of Ton King.
Western Germany has a new
f1ve-ton-a-day sulphur plant in

Alarm to Trap Clothes Thief
lands Its Inventor in Court

The Bennett clothesline warn
ing System worked so we'll that
its inventor was in Upper Marl-
boro Police Court yesterday.
j. William Bennett, AZ, radio
engineer, told Judge Alan Bowie
that his wife Elmira had COM
planned that some one had been
stealing clothes from the line in
their back yard at 7217 F street,
Carmody Hills.
So Mr.. Bennett rigged a "prox-
unity relay" which operated an
instrument in the house. About
midnight last December 6 Mrs.
Bennett heard the device click
ing.
"Susabella!" she screamed.
Hearing their secret code word,
Mr.. Bennett went into action. He
grabbed his revolver, ran to the
front porch and fired once into
the ground, he told the court.
But-Alfred Paul Schmidt. II.
who lives a few doors away, said
a bullet hinged just over his head.

Endeavor's 10Th Year
Marked al Banquet

More than 200 persons last
night attended a banquet in the
Calvary Baptist Church in OBJ
servance of the 10th anniversary
of the founding of Christian En-
deavor Society.
DR.. Norma Dunning Farmer, a
medical missionary to India in
charge of the Mary Wanless Hos
pital in Kolhapur, was guest
speaker at the banquet. She re-
turned to this country about a
month ago.
DR.. Farmer deplored the fact
that Christians do not take the
promises and providence of God
seriously" She said it is because
the Christian friends of China did
not respond in faith to serve in
that country that China is now
in the hands of friends of the
other side"
She added, however, there is
still great opportunity for mis-
sionary efforts in India.
Among those attending the ban
quet were the Rev. Clarence W.
Crawford, pastor of the Calvary
Baptist Church, and Carl Powell
president of the District Christian
Endeavor Society.

Scientists Unperturbed
By Radioactive Snow
By the Asseeioted Press

SCHENECTADY, N. Y, Feb. 3
Don't get excited about the
radioactive snow.
Scientists who examined this
weeks snowfall in Upstate New
York and elsewhere found the
radiant energy content harmless.
A small amount of radioactivity
was reported yesterday in snow in
the Rochester area and in the
air in the Schenectady area. Some
said it probably resulted from the
atomic tests near Las Vegas, New
Prof. Robert Conan of LIE Moyne
College, Syracuse, expressed doubt,
however, and quoted 1904 book
saying "snow will carry down
radioactive material that is always
present in the air"
DR.. Kenneth H. Kingdom, tech
nical manager of the Knolls
atomic power laboratory here, said
slight increase in atmospheric
radioactivity had been detected
but was no cause for alarm.
Evening star., 1951-02-03

The youth said he was running
across vacant lot on the opposite
side of the street from the Bennett
home when the shot was fired.
He told the court he was on his
way to perform a chore for his
father.
The youths complaint brought
Mr.. Bennett into court on a
charge of assault with a deadly
weapon.
Judge Bowie dismissed the
charge for insufficient evidence
after listening to conflicting testi-
mony as to Schmidt's where
abouts before the shot was fired.
The warning system has under
gone some improvement, Mr..
Bennett said as he turned to
leave.
Now" he told Judge Bowie,
IF any one fools around in my
back yard the relay will turn on
so many f1oodlights the thief will
think he is working in broad day.
