Cubans Impose
 Stiff Regulations On Oil Companies
By ROBERT BERRELLEz

HAVANA, R II The Cuban government Saturday aimed an- other blow at foreign business interests by passing stiff law that will force oil exploration and exploitation companies to work their claims or lose them.
 The legislation, which follows a tough new minerals law, also sets production quotas for petro- leum refineries. Affected primar- fly will be three big foreign opera tions the American-owne Esso Standard Oil and Texaco Companies and the British-owned Shell, Ltd.
 During a seven-hour session, Prime Minister Fidel Castro's cab- inet also:
 Ratified a ban on the immigra- tion of Chinese and non-Chinese Asiatics.
 Created a new Tourist Insti- ute with authority to start pro- ceedings to appropriate any prop erty deemed necessary for tourist development.
 Approved a decree giving pros ecutors in military tribunal trials the right to appeal the decisions. The cabinet recently re-estaiblish- ed army tribunals to combat grow ing opposition to the revolution ary government. When the tri- bunals were active during the first 6 months of Castro's regime, 555 persons were sent to death before firing squads.
 Government sources said the new petroleum law will put an end to the practice of issuing ex- ploration concession which car ried no requirement to work claims. They said the practice re- suited lin plain landholding and in the use of property for pur- poses other than exploration"
 Exploration and exploitation companies are required by the law to show proof that actual drilling is under way at their concessions. If they can't, they lose the concessions.
 The law imposes 60 per cent royalty on production based on commercial rates. Concession = holders are required to turn over to the newly created Cuban In stitute of Petroleum all informa- ton on their operations.
 Exploration concessions will be limited to about 19,000 acres, which is far under the acreage held by several companies. Fine Job Printing At The Nugget.

 Alaska licensed beverage deal CTS operating outside of city limits had clear authority Satur- day to resume operation on a 24- hour-a-day basis, seven days a week
 A three -week-old ban on all night operations anywhere in the state, and providing uniform op- erating hours for establishments throughout Alaska, was ruled il- legal Friday by a Federal District judge at Fairbanks.
 The affect of the decision was not so clear cut regarding the operations of licensed outlets wi thin cities of the big state.
 Apparently most cities would retain control over operating hours of bars and establishments if local ordinances were in effect on such matters.
 But a city councilman from Ketchikan said his city had no local ordinances concerning hours for liquor sales, and had depended on state regulations to set oper- ating hours there.
 Board Acted Without Authority
 The decision by Judge Vernon Forbes at Fairbanks held new series of regulations adopted by the State Alcoholic Beverage Control Board were of no effect because the three-man ABC was without authority to act on such a wide scale.
 He held the states Alcohol Bev- craze Control Act, passed by the First State Legislature earlier this year, improperly delegated authority to the ABC in that it set no standards by which the agency was to adopt regulations.
 The board, after controversial hearings, had ordered some 20 new regulations into effect on No vember 1 - with the most contro- versial regulation one that called for uniform operating hours by all licensed beverage dealers in the state.
 In the past, under old regula- tions adopted by the Territorial Board of Liquor Control, estab- lishments outside of city limits were able to operate legally on a 24-hour basis.
 Establishments within cities were restricted to closures at 2 am. on weekdays and am. on Sundays and holidays, and could not open for business before 10 am. on weekdays and holidays and 2 pm. on Sundays.
 Ordered Uniform Hours
 The new ABC, appointed last April and confirmed by the Leigs- lature before it adjourned, or dered uniform closures through out the state at am. on week days and 4 am. on Sundays and holidays. The regulations per- mitted, for the last three weeks, openings at 8 am. on weekdays and holidays, and retained the 2 pm. openings on Sunday.
 The regulations drew the heavi- est opposition from a newly formed Alaska Licensed Beverage Association.

Quota Must Be Observed
Farmers must produce mar
keting books to get paid. These
show whether they have plant
ed within their quota. Crops
are checked by inspectors of
the Department of Agriculture.
II a farmer has overplanted,
his book is red instead of white.
A red book means its holder
is not entitled TO price supports
on any of his crop. Also. he is
fined on the excess rs per cent
Of the market average for the
previous year-which now will
be about 33 cents per pound.
I'VE don't have many that
go over the quota" Mr.. King
said.
Farmers voted last February
to keep the 1859 crop out of
price supports.

To assure formal adoption by
the State PTA convention In
Roanoke in October. each
point in the legislative program
must receive Is district votes.
Endorsement of the entire

as establishment Of a 81 mini

Slot Machine Ban
One of the hottest issues on
the agenda is a proposal to lift
the ban on slot machine casinos
in the Potomac River just of
the Virginia shore.
The gambling heavens were
shut down last year but a re-
pealer of the ban was intro
duced in the 1859 session. The
bill did not get out of commit
tee but found its way to the
council for study as a possible
means of revenue for the State.
Eastern Shore delegation
Chairman James c. Latham al
ready has demanded that the
controversial proposal be de-
leted from the agenda.
Certain to stir up a bitter
controversy this year are pro-
posals to stiffen Maryland Sun
day blue laws. The legislation
was prepared on the basis of
recommendations Of a special
committee named by Gov.
Tawes.

In Prince Georges County
1t is a crucial period for the
business that leads all others
there.
Money-wise, hopes are high
with warehouSemen and far
mers proud of the 1858 crop
and buyers repeatedly enthu-
siastic.
"I've been in tobacco so years
and this looks like the best
real light" said Buck Duvall,
floor manager at Edelen Broth
ers Warehouse, Upper Marl-
boro.
The bulk is expected to be
about the same, but about 6
million pounds lighter than the
1857 crop. Leaves up for sale
now were cut in August and
September.
Previous Crops Hit
A. H. King, manager Of
Planters Warehouse, Upper
Marlboro, said the last three
crops before this were drought
stricken.
About 90 per cent Of the
leaves will go into cigarettes
and the rest into cigars, Mr..
Duvall said. Pointing to one
500-bundle stack. he said.
This weighed in at 1874
pounds. Last year it'd been
200 and in the Carolinas it
could go up to 400 pounds"
"You can't find a lighter
weight better type 80 than
southern Maryland-even Lau-
rel and MONTGOMERY County
can't match it" he said,
you could use this in a Gig
arctic next week." he said.
The 100000 pounds of tobac-
co stacked in Edelens will be
sold in about three hours
Tuesday. Farmers will have
truckloadS waiting outside to
replenish the 53,000-square-
foot floor. Sales in the four
Upper Marlboro area ware
houses are held daily except
Saturday and Sunday.
We'll sell heavy except for
about a month starting at mid
May when tobacco planting
goes on" Mr.. Duvall said.
Price Support Higher
A price support of sos cents
per pound is the average among
"a grades of type 80 this year.
Last year it was 48 cents, about
4 cents higher than the sale
average.
Farmers this year are hop
ing for a selling price of go
cents per pound or more.
Within 10 minutes after his
stack is sold a farmer can pick
up his money. Checks to farm
erS are written by the individ-
ual warehouses, which later bill

of them affect directly the A.
napcial affairs Of individual
residents.
Many items are going TO the
council because they we're too
controversial for the Assembly
to handle during the past ses-
sion.
One Of the hotteSt-pet prof.
ect OF Council President George
w Della--would provide for
sharp increases in true interest
rates on loans above $500.
The bill, which would hike
home rates more than so per
cent, sailed through the Sen
ate but was blocked in the
House Ways and Means Com
mittee.
State Milk Commission
Another controversial issue
to be handled by the council
Is the proposed creation of a
State milk commission to reg
ulate and to peg the price Of
milk from the COW to the table.
Small boat owners - and
there are upwards of 100000
in the State-will be affected
by legislation calling for licens-
ing and regulation of their
crafts.
A bill introduced with Gov.
Tawes' Endorsement during the
past session would have used
the licensing feature as a rev.
enue producer. 1t ran into such
stiff opposition that action was
put off on it until next year.
The council often is the re-
pository for bills the Legisla-
ture does not like to kill out
right because of public senti-
ment. Legislators often refer
bills to the council as a means
of giving them a decent
burial"
Legislation to regulate the
building and loan industry has
been defeated repeatedly by the
assembly for the last two
decades. This year adminiStra-
ton leaders saw to it that every
bill to regulate the industry got
no further than reteral to the
council. Maryland . the only
State that does not require
building and loan accounts to
be insured.
InstaIIment Buying
Regulation of inStallment
buying and consumer credit is
proposed in another item on
the councils agenda. At present
there is no control over Install
Ilent buying except in the auto
field.
A complete overhaul of State
Insurance laws as we'll as a
study of Maryland hodgepodge
scholarship system are on the
councils program.
Reorganization of Maryland'S
appeals court system-subject
of widespread study last year
is to be handled by a special
committee which will report to
the council.
