Kills Memo
On Gambling

RICHMOND, Oct. 8 (APl.-
The State Alcoholic Beverage
Control Board has withdrawn
a recent memorandum which
it said might be interpreted
as approving gambling in pri-
vate clubs.
A board spokesman said that
"any licensee of the board
clubs or otherwise-that allows
games of chance prohibited by
the general laws Of the State
is doing so at his own peril"
The situation arose, said the
spokesman, when the board
granted approval to Fry's
Spring Beach Club in Char
lottesville to allow a private
group leasing the club to con-
duct type of bingo unprohib-
tied by State gambling laws.
The board said the enter
tainment was approved and
that the board was Of the
opinion that exception should
not be taken to the playing OF
bingo in a licensed club If the
licensee does not participate in
or is not a party to such gam

The board said it felt this
statement might be m!sinter-
preted and that licensees might
believe they could lease prem
ises for illegal gambling.
The board emphasized that
it was making no charge that

By Colin Mick

In the face OF solid opposition
from the Treasury, State and
Interior Departments and the
Bureau of the Budget, Senate
subcommittee meetings were
held recently on a measure in
troduced by Senator Clair Engle
and co-sponsOred by Senator
Ernest Gruening to provide
subsidy payments of up to $35
per ounce for newly mined do
mestic gold.
Several Alaskans testified in
favor of the measure Among those
testifying were Senators Bartlett
and Gruening and Congressman
Rivers, James A. Williams, Direc-
tor of Alaska's Division of Mines
and Mining, and James T. Crowdy.
President of the New York-Alaska
Gold Dredging Corporation, mining
at Nyac.
Officials of the State Department
spoke out against the measure, stat
ing that, "The Department believes
that the enactment of this resolu-
ton would be likely to be re-
garded as a modification of the
existing US. monetary system
Interior Objects
Interior Department officials also
objected because, with an incentive
of $35 an ounce, gold production
might be doubled, but at this dou-

pied rate it would take about 40
years to replace from domestic
sources the monetary gold reserve

The Treasury Department also
objected to the bill. stating "The
treasury Department does not be-
heve that the institution of sys-
TEN of incentive payments to gold
producers would represent a de-
slfable approach to the basic prob
lem of our balance payments"
James k.SIoWGy, OF the New
4ork-Alaska Gold Dredging Corp.
in supporting the measure stated
Us. gold mines cannot continue
to operate in the face of 1894
price for their product and 1862
costs. CroWdy also pointed out
that actually, using 1899 base.
one ounce of gold is only worth
about SIS today He also stated that
he felt gold production would in
crease rapidly, were the measure
enacted
Double Employment
James A. Williams, Director of
Alaska's Division of Mines and
Minerals, estimated that the mea-
sure would increase gold industry
employment in Alaska from its
present level of about 800 workers
to more than 1900. Thus he said.
the impact within the industry
will be doubling of present pro-
duction, with a quadrupling of its
dollar value, plus a doubling of the
working force
Williams stated that the subsidy
would increase Alaskan gold pro-
duction after 1863 by an estimated
100000 ounces per year.

tons, believing that the provisions
of the resolution might not be ade-
quate

gest the elimination of the Swear

see how such short-lived program
could encourage the discovery, de-

of domestic gold

Not Feasible

Second Rivers said, 1T seems
to me that to require each incentive
payment to be determined by the
Secretary of the Interior on a dis
cretionary basis would not be adj
ministratively feasible I believe
that under this discre onary
method, the Secretary of the Inter
ior would get begged down in au-
dts, mine rehabilitation estimates,
engineering problems, stock market
Scrutinies, and explorations to de-
termine the value of the paystreak."
Rivers suggested that incentive
payments of S35 per ounce be made
to producers from newly developed
and reopened mines, $40 per ounce
to producers who are and have
been in production, and $40 per
ounce to producers who derive gold
as by-product
Rivers stated that he felt within
10 years, producers receiving the
S35 an ounce subsidy would be
firmly established and their sub
sldy could be reduced to $40.

couldn't capitalize on them, the
results. A 1913 Southwestern
Athletic Conference football loss
to Grambling College in Uni
versity Stadium Saturday after
noon.
For the second straight week,
the Jaguars have won the sta
tistics battle, have failed to
score a touchdown, and are yet
to win a game in two tries on
the current season the same
thing prevailed in the 20-6 loss
to Texas Southern last week.
This marked only the second
time that Grambling has won
from Southern in nine scattered
games dating back to 1896, and
the Tigers never had an easier
time than in the loosely played
contest Saturday afternoon.
During the entire first half,
Grambling had but 10 plays
from scrimmage and never ad-
vanced the ball further than
it's own AZ yard line, but as
hard to believe as it might seem,
they led at the end of the half
by 1913.
With 4:1O minutes left in the
first quarter, the first of the
gratis touchdowns was scored
when Southern halfback Verdis
Theus had the ball plucked from
mid-air in a muff by Gramb-
ling's J. D. Garrett who raced
Al yards to score.
Garrett then converted to
make the score TO.
When the first scoring fatil-
