Office

Huge quantities >of whisky,
brandy and gin have cheered
UP the Districts normally
gloomy finance officials.
They are looking forward to
the unexpected revenue the
District will receive when it
sells 484 cases of liquor at an
auction at 9 am. Monday.
The auction of these cases,
seized in 1859 for non-payment
of District taxes, will be held
in the rear of the police ware
house at 469 C street NV.
Kenneth Back, District
finance officer, estimates that
the sales will bring the District
between $4,000 and $4,000 in
revenue. All Of this money will
go into the Districts general
fund.
The liquor was seized at Apex
Liquors, 633 Pennsylvania ave-
nue. NV, because District Off
cials said they had found bot
ties Of alcoholic beverages with
out the District tax stamp re-
quired at that time. The dis
play Of a tax stamp on liquor
bottles has since been rescinded
by Congress.
License Saved
As a result Of the seizure of
the liquor, the District sought
to revoke the license Of Apex
Liquors. However, the Alco-
holic Beverage Control Board
declined to take any action
after conflicting testimony dur
ing the hearing about how
many tax stamps were found
at the liquor store.
The District government then
filed suit in District Court seek
ing permission to sell the con-
fiscated liquor.
When the District Court
ruled that the District govern
ment could sell the liquor, the
case was appealed to the United
States Court of Appeals, which
recently upheld the District
Court decision.
Samuel J. Kidd, chief Of the
enforcement branch of the
District finance office, said
that anyone who wants to can
bid at the liquor auction Mon
day.
Some Real Good"
Some Of the whisky is real
good stuff-bottled In bond"
said Mr.. Kidd.
The liquor will be sold In
case lots only. Mr.. Kidd said
that the entire lot Of liquor
will be offered for sale first
at the auction. Then. he
added. bids will be solicited for
the individual cases.
II the individual bids total
higher than the bulk offers
that may be received, the liquor
will be sold in case lots, Mr..
Kidd said.

every nickel out Of this that

Humble Oil
Accused in
Texas Probe

DALLAS. Sept. IL (AP).-
An independent operator for
the first time accused at least
one major oil company yester-
day Of operating slanted wells.
The accusation, against
Humble Oil Co., was made by
Harry H. Harrington. jr., of
Longview. an oil operator and
lawyer. in testimony before the
Tevas House Investigating
Committees investigation Of
slanted well drilling.
The committee has heard
testimony that as many at $50
wells in the East Texas and
other fields may be slanted so
they produce oil from beneath
a neighbor's property.
The accusations previously
had been against independent
oil operators.
Mr.. Harrington, a small man
In his Cos, met a challenge by
Texas Attorney General Will
Wilson to supply an instance of
a major company operating a
Slanted well.
The witness told Of a well
drilled by Roy Laird. not other
wise identified, in the eastern
part Of Texas.
Roy Laird had a WE'LL" said
Mr.. Harrington. Humble (Oil
Coz was drilling in the next
tract and drilled into the Laird
well and filled 1t with drilling
mud.
They Strengthened it up and
promised to re-drill Laird's well,
They drilled for los days trying
to get it back in production"
Mr.. Harrington said that
when Humble got it back in
production. Mr.. Laird asked for
a survey to show that it bot
toned under his tract, and
Humble refused. Instead Humble
Oil gave Mr.. Laird a well in
the next tract and took over
his oil well, Mr.. Harrington
said.
And they sat there and have
produced that Oaird's originaD
well ever since"

Riding Ulcer
This man may not be well,
but if he is able to hold down
a job it does seem that he
might once in a while take
his wife out and show some
interest in the things she is
interested in. 1t sounds as
though he is riding that ulcer
pretty long and pretty far.
Many men fail to remember
that they have been thrown
with people all day long at
work, while their wives often
are isolated at home. I think
couples such as this one
would be greatly helped by
contracting The Family Serv-
ice Association Of America in
their community.
Also. the wife seems to be
in a rut. She should develop
a life Of her own if her hus-
band will not or cannot join

Retired Officer
Wins Argument
In Conflict Case
By the Associated Press

A retired Navy captain whose
disability pay was suspended
after he had challenged the
application of the conflict-of-
interest regulations has won
his argument and restoration
of his pay.
The Navy said yesterday the
disability pay of Capt. Joseph
K. Taussig, a combat-decorated
and disabled veteran of the
Pearl Harbor attack, has been
resumed under a ruling from
the United States Controller
General.
Capt. Taussig is a director Of
Government regulations for 6
hardware manufacturing COM
pany. He challenged a regula-
ton which had required retired
regular officers to declare that
they are not selling supplies OF
materials to the Defense De-
partment, but which did not
require the same declaration Of
retired Reserve officers.
Restoration of his pay will,
be retroactive to cover the
period of the suspension.

European Concern for the Dollar

firm conviction of the finan-
cial experts that Western
Europe would suffer serious
ly if some major economic
misfortune should befall
America. But these actions
were mere shots in the arm
for temporary results. They
cannot have a lasting effect.
The cure lies in the hands of
the men in Washington.
"A patient who has a heart
ailment and does nothing to
reduce his extra weight will
not improve. even if he is
given the latest and most
effective pills." said one of
the Swiss financial experts.
This applies to the Ameri-
can high blood pressure. In
stead of needing the warning
signals, your budget, we be-
lieve, will show a substantial
deficit instead of the small
surplus promised by your
President last year.
"Utopians in Washington,
instead of trimming the sails
of national finance, are ad-
vocating higher domestic and
foreign expenditures which
they contend will eventually
lead to a global affluent So
ciety."
The American economic
growth in the last years does
not justify, say European
economic experts, a visible
national debt of close to $500
billion-in fact it is larger
and a budget of some $50
billion. There is a limit to
direct and indirect taxation
even in wealthy America. The
rising cost of labor, combined
with the successful demand
of labor to reduce working
hours to SO or even 20 a
week, will place the United
States in an impossible situa-
ton compared to Europe and
Japan where wages are rising
but the working hours re-
main stable.
This is the picture as seen
by Swiss experts who do not
conceal their concern that
sooner than anticipated the
dollar itself will be in serious
trouble.
