WARRENTON, Va. - The
Warrenton Horse Show
grounds viii head for cover
tomorrow night as the Vir-
ginia Thoroughbred Associa-
ton sponsors an inaugural
thoroughbred auction sale Of
broodmares, weanlin gs,
yearlings and other "horses
Of racing age"
Known as the Virginia
Mixed Sale, the speculative
event will be held under a
large green-and-white tent,
shipped down from Jamaica,
N. Y, and will emulate, as
far as possible, the Saratoga
yearling sales held at the
Spa during August.
Realizing that August is not
October, and that the first
frost has already settled over
the countryside, the tent,
which seats 500 will be heat
ed, although there's usually
enough heated bidding at
any horse sale to keep the
customers warm, particularly
when "Laddie" Dance and
Ralph Retler handle the auc-
pioneering.
These two, old hands in
their black tie at Saratoga,
will carry on after John Fin
ney reads out the individual
horses pedigree before the
thoroughbred is led In from
the holding ring. The holding
ring will be next to the Gin
gate" through which many q
Virginia homebred has gal
loped on to success.
For bidders who arrive
hungry, there will be a little
green-and-white tent at the
grandstand end of the show
ring dispensing food and soft
drinks.
The committee Is doing its
own softening up Of prospec-
tive buyers, at a pre-sale
cocktail party at Warrenton's
Fauquier Club, starting at
4:30, standard time. The
auction is also on standard
time, starting at 1880, giving
ashington area guests
plenty Of leeway to settle In
the sales tent. Unlike a first
night opening, It's not q bit
smart to arrive late In the
middle Of the auctioneer's
song.
Although emulating tn e
Saratoga sales In its trap
pings, the Virginia mixed sale
is not trying to take either
Saratoga's or Keeneland's
place In the sun. It's been
obvious for q long time, how
ever, that there was q warm
spot waiting for this particu-
lar event. Virginia breeders

Arguments in Federal Court This Week May See Overturn of Executive Orders Outlawing Private Ownership of Gold

 The government now charges two other men, Harry Brouwer and Robert Sheldon Pike, with the same offense. It argues the Korean war emergency proclaimed by for mer President Harry Truman vali- dates criminal proceedings.
 Judge Westover's ruling also could affect orders by former Pre- sident Eisenhower and President Kennedy forbidding US. citizens to own gold overseas, including rare coins.
 Even more significantly, a de- cision against the government might sink the foundation for such other executive orders as the trade embargo on Red China and North Korea. For this reason, the government wants to see validity of the executive orders upheld, quite apart from their application to criminal actions against holders of gold.
 AS far as gold is concerned, 8 Treasury spokesman said the gov. ernment would lose an enforce. ment weapon if criminal penaltie: were eliminated but emphasized the prohibition in the 1884 ac would remain. And conspiracy t. violate civil law would remain ; crime. ......-. ..........

JUNEAU R - A spokesman for labor was highly critical to- day of the legislative session which ended Saturday, but the State Chamber of Commerce said Alas ka's business community received fair treatment.
 Lew Dischner, legislative repre- sentative for the Teamsters Union, saved most of his barbS for the State Senate.
 First of all," Dischner said, q believe that as far as considering the problems of Alaska's wage earners and small businessmen, that this session has as bad rec ord as the infamous 1853 session of the territorial legislature, but for different reasons.
 This session found the governor of Alaska introducing many fine pieces of social legislation, which were overdue, and championing them.
 Most of the legislation intro duced in the House by either the governor or labor was passed by the House, only to be either quiet ly killed in committee in the Sen ate or have the substance elimin- ated by Senate Committee substi- tutes or amendments.
 Some of the best legislation was killed outright on the floor of the Senate by a coalition of the conservatives of both parties
 Dischner said the members of the Senate, in their refusal to recog- nize our employment security problems, have brought upor themselves the problem of major overhaul of the ESC program il ] 1864, and, because 1864 is an cleo

Price Increase By Third Steel Co.
 Is Announced

WASHINGTON R - A third steel company announced selective price increases today as a congress sional committee made ready to inquire into steel prices, profits and production problems.
 Republic Steel Corp, the na- tion's third largest producer, said in Cleveland it is increasing by an average of $5.34 a ton prices of carbon steel products.
 President Kennedy, spending an Easter vacation in Palm Beach, Fla, was understood to be keep ing in touch by telephone with economic advisers in Washington who are studying the implications of the price increase announced Sunday by Lukens.
 Sen. Paul Douglas, D-Ill., chair man of the Senate-House Econ omic Committee, said in Washing ton the committees inquiry was spurred by price increases an- nounced first by Wheeling and followed by Lukens.
 Kennedy, anxious to head of any steel industry rush to boos prices, held series of telephon' conferences Sunday.
 The Wall Street Journal sai today: "The nations big steel pro ducers, convinced President Ker nedy will tolerate selective prie increases, are expected soon
 seek their first substantial pri s relief since mid-1958."

Labor Spokesman Critical of Alaska Legislature Was Fair to Business

ton year, this work will be push ed with the utmost vigor by many, many groups"
 Don Dickey, general manager of the State Chamber, commented:
 "Alaska's business community was generally treated fairly by this legislature.
 'The dilemma and deadlock that developed around this years bud get indicate that an improved method of adopting this important document must be developed"
 Dickey said the State Senate's defeat of a bill which would have boosted the maximum basic em- ployment security benefit amount from $45 to $50 a week was ''heart- ening to AlaSkanS."
 ''This defeat demonstrated that a growing number of legislators recognize that any additional bene- fits at the time when our state still owes the federal government millions for repayment of past loans would place a great hardship on the economy and act as a possible deterrent to the attraction of in vestment capital.
 Tt seems strange, though, that business, the major source of the states income, must count it's bless ings not in legislative gains, but merely in it's success in prevent ing the passage of measures that would add to the present high cost of conducting business in Alaska
 However, as we all know, this is only the first half of the third state legislature, for the second session next year will determine what gains or losses business car truly claim"

Billie Sol Estes Sentenced To 15 Years In Prison

FL PASO, Tex. R-Bankrupt Billie Sol Estes was sentenced to- day to Is years in prison for mail fraud and conspiracy in manipu- lating fertilizer tank mortgages worth SPA million.
 US. Dist. Judge R. E. Thoma- son described the one-time mil lionaire financier as perpetrator of "one of the most gigantic swindles in the history of our country"
 Estes received the sentence with his usual impassiveness. He did move his lips slightly when the judge castigated his conduct as a sWindler.
 Estes, whose financial empire of fertilizer tanks, grain storage and cotton allotments collapsed a year ago, was given an eight-year pri- son term last November on state charges growing out of his fer tilizer tank mortgages.

WASHINGTON R - Govern ment officials are knocking down any notion that a federal court decision last year reopens the pos sibility of turning in dollars for gold.
 They make the same point in connection with a case scheduled for argument in Federal Court at Los Angeles this week.
 Their position is that no matter how Judge Harry Westover rules whether it's still or no longer a criminal offense-it still will be illegal to own gold except for in- dustrial or commercial purposes.
 Some economists and bankers advocate return to a strict gold coin standard, under which the government would have to redeem currency with gold on demand. They say this power in the hands of the public would serve as a brake on what they regard as loose fiscal and credit policies by the government and banking in- stitutions.
 The United States has operated on modified gold standard since 1884 on the theory that gold at a fixed price supports a sound dol lar in resourceful monetary system.
 The 1884 Gold Reserve Act bans private ownership of gold. Any one lacking a Treasury license must forfeit his gold to the gov ernment and pay penalty of two times its value.
 This is the prevailing civil law It was not disturbed by last years ruling. Nor is it threatened in the new case. Both court disputes center on a presidential order is sued by Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1883. FDR made it a crime to own gold Violators may be fined up to $10,000, imprisoned for 10 years.
 This was the order struck down by Judge William Mathes, also in Federal Court at Los Angeles, in 1862. Mathes said the legal basis for it, the proclaimed depression

"B-Girl" Measure Dies in the House In Closing Hours

JUNEAU LR - One of the last acts of the House before ad- journment Saturday was to kill a bill which would close loopholes in the laws pertaining to so-called "B-Girls."
 The action came when the lower chamber refused on two separate roll call votes to concur in a Senate amendment to the bill, SCSHB198.
 The measure also would have permitted cocktail Waitresses to work in bars where no regular meals are served.
 The Senate had passed the bill late Thursday after tacking on an amendment which would have pro hlbited under-cover payments such as rebates and shares to females for soliciting drinks. The lower chamber first refused by vote of 18-21 to concur with the Senate amendment.
 Then, just before the final ad- journment of this session of the legislature, it refused to rescind it's action in not going along witf the Senate by vote of 1917. 4 resembling action requires a ma jority of the House, or 21 votes.
