Man Identified
In Murder Case

OAKLAND, Calf. Nov. % (H)
An Oakland housewife pointed
"a finger at Burton w. Abbott and
said fatty he was the man she
saw beating a young girl in a
car the day stephanie Bryan dis
appeared last April %.
Mrs. Reye Leidecker was a
surprise witness who volunteered
information to the Berkeley
(Calif) police since Abbott's
trial started November 7.
She was the first witness to
identify Abbott without quail
fication. Several witnesses have
testified they saw a man strike
a girl In a car on April 28.
The incident took place on
highway "a a few miles east of
Berkeley about is minutes after
Stephanie Bryan disappeared.
Abbott. 27-year-old accounting
student at the University of CAL
ifornia, is accused of kidnapping
her, numbering her and burying
her body near his family's fishing
cabin 275 miles north in Trinity
County.
Mrs. Leidecker has l4-year-
old daughter. the same age as
Stephanie, and Is the wife of
a former variety store operator.
She testified she saw the face
of the man beating the girl:
that 'his expression was angry"
and his forhead glistening as "if
1t had perspiration on it."
She said a picture of Steph-
anie Bryan looked like the girl
In the car.
Mrs. Leidecker said she picked
Abbott out Of a lineup Sunday
seven months after she saw the
man in the car and ''in all fair
ness to Mr.. Abbott" took a sec
ond look at him when he was in
a position like that in the car.

TERRITORY CRACKING DOWN ON STORED LIQUOR

JUNEAU - Officials of the Territory were poised this week to seize 4O02 cases of what they des- cribed as "cOntraband liquor" in warehouses at Fairbanks and An chorage.
 Assistant Attorney General J. David Pree said the huge stock has been moved into the Territory of Alaska without payment of the ex- else tax owing the Territory.
 Pree said a check for $3,429 in taxes on 436 cases was submitted ,by K and L Distributors under protest" several days ago. An ad- ditional 4,OO2 cases in warehouses of the Lawrence Warehouse com pany in the railbelt cities have been discovered by Territorial Tax agents in a few days.
 The Territory contends tax is , payable on the big stock because it has been consigned by two large distillers, Seagram and Calvert, to K and L. The distributors take the view that the liquor has not been sold or consigned and therefore the tax is not yet payable. Pree said that neither Seagram nor Calvert has qualified to do business in the Territory.
 With the Territory ready to seize the liquor, Tax Commissioner Karl Dewey has been urged by the dis tillers to confer with them in Phil adelphia.

 Commissioner of Roads for Alas ka, A. F. Ghiglione, head of the Alaska Road Commission, said re- gently that progress on the job would probably get the road across the Copper River delta by the end of this season.
