Congress Asked To Revise Alaska's Game Laws

WASHINGTON, R III Congress has been asked to revise the Alaska game law to give pro- lection on the high seas to the soon-to-be states polar bear and Walrus.
 Present law gives no protection to the animals on the high seas and unrestricted hunting has in creased rapidly in recent years.
 The proposed game law re- visions sent Congress by Secre- tary of the Interior Seaton would not affect existing law which permits natives to take walrus for food and other subsistence uses.
 Management and protection of Alaska's fish and game re- sources now rests with the sec retary, with the Alaska Game Commission acting in an ad- visory capacity. As proposed, the commission-in line with the policy followed in most states would prescribe the regulations, subject to secretarial approval.
 Seaton also recommended that the new law prohibit waste of game animals by outlawing the staying of an animal such as the moose solely for it's antlers.
 Existing authority of the com mission to require no-residents to employ guides, the department said, would be changed to per init adoption of regulations re- quiring all persons to hire guides when engaged in hunting or photographing certain species of game or marine animals in speci- fled areas.
 In addition to giving the com mission added authority over guide qualifications and activ- ities, the proposed revisions would call for jail sentences from one to five years in event the holder is found guilty of violating game laws.

 Officials said next falls daily Japan-Europe flights by KIM, SAS and Air France will mean a big speedup in mail service and other interchange between the Pacific and Western Europe.
 "It will also become a great thing for Alaska" Vogels said.
 None of the airlines on the polar route is now allowed to pick up or discharge passengers during the refueling at Anchor age. But Vogels predicted pass enger rights eventually will be opened, giving Alaskan travellers a direct link to Europe.

10th Star In Flag Expected To Increase Cost

NEW YORK, LR - Flag prices are expected to go up after Alas ka is admitted to statehood.
 So predicts William C.. Wiggins, sales manager of Amin & Co.,, the nations largest manufacturer of flags and bunting. The price increase will result from the added cost of making a flag with 49 stars, he says.
 Most likely design will be a flag with star field containing seven rows of seven stars, says Wiggins Another possibility is a field with five rows of five stars alternating with four rows of six stars-a pattern that would easily permit addition of a 50th star if Hawaii becomes a state too.
 Both designs are currently on display in the toy department of Macy's New York Department Store.
 The making of Old Glory con- sumes some 25 million yards of textile fabrics every year. Cot ton is the most popular cloth, but a blend of wool and nylon is gaining favor.
 Yardage may triple or even quadruple in the first year that the 49-star flag is in production.

WASHINGTON, lR mn A law yer for Bernard Goldfine said today Goldfine charged off as a business expense hotel bills paid for Sherman Adams and the cost of an expensive Oriental rug which Adams has testified was a loan.
 Attorney Roger Robb gave this account after a House hearing at which Goldfine read a statement denying there was anything out of line in his relationship with Adams.
 Goldfine and Adams have pie tured Goldfine's favors as those of friendship. They denied un- der oath that Adams pulled fed eral strings for Golfine.,
 But if the favors are shown to have been written off as busi- ness expenses for tax purposes, the subcommittee members said, then that will show that Gold fine meant to get business value in return.

He was backed by Delegate

against pari-mutuel legislation

by Mr.. Frost. specifies that the

Following q strong protest
from Don Lillis, Bowie presi-
dent. D. Eldred Rinehart, chair
man of the Maryland Racing
Commission, has ordered Pim-
leo and Laurel to make About
Efforts to reopen their frozen
racing strips for horses now
stabbed at the two tracks.
Lillis. in carrying his protest
to the commission, charged
that Laurel and Pimlico have
shown little concern about their
frozen tracks. which have been
unavailable for workouts for
nearly two weeks.
vLillis pointed out that Bowie
depends heavily on these horses
approximately 600 at Laurel
and 400 at Pimlico--to I'LL its
programs.
Two Days Missed
At Bowie, where $50 horses
are stabbed, workouts have been
conducted daily. with. the ex-
ception Of two days last week
before the track opened its 40
day meeting last Saturday.
Speaking from his home in
Smithburg. Md, Rinehart said
the five year date plan, now
in operation. whereby Bowie
opens the Maryland season in
early February, is "a three
way affair and requires the.
united effort Of all-Bowie,
Pimlico and Laurel-to be COM
pletely successful"
Rinehart added:
ut is not fair to the horse
men to come to Maryland to
run and then find that they
cannot get their horses into
condition through no fault of
their own"
Lillis, who has been battling
Pimlico and Laurel about the
proposed closing of Pimlico
and the consolidation of the
two tracks at Laurel, told Rine-
hart:
Last year we kept Bowie
open for the convenience of
horsemen at the other tracks.
Now they are not doing the
same for us. I'm telling Marty
Meyer crack superintendent
to close our track the day after
the meeting ends"
Warning to Bowie
Rinehart said he would not
permit Bowie to close follow
ing the final program, but
agreed that inability to train
horses at Pimlico and Laurel
these cold days has affected
the caliber of racing at Bowie.
