ABC Board Warns Will, Meals-Only' License Holders

JUNEAU R - The Alcoholic Beverage Control Board said to- day it has advised holders of res taurant liquor licenses that their privilege is limited to the sale of wine and beer with meals only.
 Chairman Bill Ray said the board had received an increasing number of inquiries from both licensees and law enforcement agencies requesting a clariflcation of the privileges accorded by a restaurant license.
 "The law is very clear on this point" Ray said. "It reads, The holder of a restaurant license may sell beer and wine in a restaurant with meals furnished in good faith ' to patrons
 "The legislative intent as ex- pressed by the wording with meals indicates any legal consump- ton of beer or wine in a licensee's restaurant must be during the time a customer is actually eating a meal.
 This intent is also further con- firmed by the obvious difference in the meaning and specific word ing serving food in the descrlp- tion of a roadhouse license, which states, in part:
 '''The holder of a roadhouse It. cense may sell beer and wine in a roadhouse serving food to the travelling public.
 In a notice to restaurant li- cense holders, the board said the type of meals that must be furn- ished by the holder of a restaurant license are those that are to be found in a "bonafide eating place.
 "The menu should consist of a wide variety of foods and should not be limited to one or two en- trees or main dishes.
 "The serving of beer and wine is only incidental to the opera ton of a restaurant business and should not be considered a main stay or primary source of revenue
 Naturally, at times a restaurant patron will have finished his meal before entirely disposing of his beer or wine. In such cases the patron should be allowed to finish the drink but should not be al- lowed to reorder."

THE DISCOVERY OF ALASKA =

The threatened court-martial never materialized. Boring was forgiven all in a typical round of apologies, and even his pay was re-instated. Vitus could not have cared less, for the month was June, and in a few days the Amer ican Expedition would begin.
 There was one thing that both cred the commander, however. In the same breath that he was for given his non existent sins. St. Petersburg directed that he sail south on the northern ocean and plant a flag on the continent of Cana Land prior to searching for America.
 Good heavens" he stormed, Eve all know there is no such place. It's figment of imagination. Spangberg took time out to look fer it in 1738, on his Japanese ex- petition, and reported nothing but salt water half mile deep.
 Louis LeCroyere who was pres ent, greeted the outburst with a sly smile. But this is a direct or der from the Academy, Command er,' he said, you cannot ignore it."
 He could, interrupted Chiri- kov, except for you, Frenchman. ' Alexi was ready to do battle, he was so exasperated. You're the one who is insisting
 Tut! tut" The astronomer en- joyed the discomfort he was caus. ing. "I am but an instrument ir the Empress hands. She wants Cana Land for Russia" His re. marks were deliberate reminder: of where the power lay.
 "Bah!" jeered Chirikov, not ir the least dismayed. "You and tha incompetent brother of yours, De. Lisle, are urging this Cana Lanc quest"
 LaCroyere's lips thinned to { slit. And to prove we are righ about the continent being there That jackal, Spangberg, probably stood on it and didn't know the difference"
 Vitus threw up his hands Enough! We will sail first fol Cana Land as directed" He hae no desire to hear LaCroyere long CT. He only wanted the man ou of his sight.
 I'm sure," purred LaCroyere a. he departed, that you will"
 What a monster, growled Alex when the Frenchman had gone.
 Tt doesn't matter" Vitus smiled

MT. Smith called his business associates home in an urgent at tempt to reach him. Instead he got his four-year-old son. After an in- terval of getting nowhere he said, "Is there anyone else there I could talk to-"
 You could talk to my sister"
 "All right, will you get her, please"
 MT. Smith heard the receiver laid on the table. After long in- terval the little boy came back. "I couldn't get her out of the play pen!" he panted into the telephone.

have also tried to
pen their sheep and goats
every night close to their

disturbance in their focks.
This saves some sheep, but
losses still occur. Also, if dogs
should get into a pen Of this
type while the owner and his
family are away for a few
hours, or if the owner and his
family are sound sleepers, the
dogs can kill needlessly until
they are tired or until the sun
begins to come up.
Stewed goat, roast kid, and
roast lamb are favorites here
in the Virgin Islands. These
delicacies may soon be gone
unless the financial losses
to the livestock owners are
Iessened or eliminated. Live
stock owners, particularly
sheep owners, are seeking
greater enforcement Of exist
ing dog laws and are seeking
payment for the losses they
sustain from the slaughter of
their animals. Consumers as
we'll as farmers should well
come the strict enforcement
of existing laws, or if they are
not strict enough, stronger
laws should be asked for
Strict enforcement Of strict
laws will lessen the financial
losses Of our small land own
ing livestock people and will
prevent the needless slaugh-
ter Of sheep, baby calves, and
goats each year.

African Building-And Demolition

African nationalists have horror of the
"balkanization" of their continent. That is why
from the. start they have opposed such separat-
ist movements the attempt of Katanga under
the Noise Tshombe to break away from the rest
of the Congo The desire Of Africans is to remove
the frontiers drawn on the map, often without re-
gard to physical geography or tribal organization,
during the European colonization of Africa in the
nineteenth century Their first step toward this is
the establishment of regional federations.
Three contiguous territories in East Africa -
Independent Tanganyika and Uganda and sef-gov-
erning Kenya - have just decided to enter into
federal association by the end of this year This is
fine idea and it deserves to succeed. The deci-
sion has been taken early to enable the three terri
tories to inherit many of the common services OF
the East Africa High Commission, and entirely
British institution which Africans in the three
territories had tended to denigrate so long as they
were still under British control.
It was encouraging that the Foreign Minister
Of the Somal Republic sat in as observer at the
meetings which produced the decision to federate.

Congo about the future of Katanga and the inten-

end of Belgian rule Mr.. Tshombe has been deprived
of much of the power and influence that he once
had But it seems that stability in the Congo still
awaits definitive resolution of the relationship
between him and the central government-with

FederaI Tax
Cut Could
Increase
Revenues By
$32 Million

Washington, D. C.. - The Ad-
ministration's proposed $40 bill
lion tax cut, when fully effec-
tive, could result in an increase
of $32 million in tax revenue
for Alabama's state and local
governing bodies, according to
U. S. Senator John Sparkman
3D., Ala.).
In an interview over south
ern radio and TV stations this
week end, Sparkman, top-rank-
ing Senate Democrat on the
Joint Economic Committee, is
calling this point to the atten-
tion of the people Of Alabama.
He said the Committee is con-
Quoting a continuing study Of
the. economic impact Of the Pre-
sident's tax proposals on the
individual states.
"Alabama's state government
would get $24 million and the
local governments would get So
million yearly" Sparkman said.
He explained that the additional
spending money which would be
available to Alabamians as a
result Of the tax cut would
generate the payment Of these
additional taxes to the state and
to the local governments.
On a national basis, the Ala
bama Senator said that the
states and local governments
would get about $2.9 billion in
increased tax revenues as q re-
suit Of the proposed tax cut.

saddening occurrence in our COM
rnunity and is more meaningful

personally extend my heartfelt
sympathy to the wife and chill
dren of Mr.. Evers. and convey
to them my blessings and the
assurance of my prayers.
81 am saddened when l review
the events of recent days and
weeks. As a loyal son of Missis-
sippi and man of God, | feel
in conscience compelled to speak
out in the face of the grave ra-
cial situation in which we now
find ourselves. This problem is
unmistakably a moral one. We
need frankly to admit that the
guilt for the murder of Mr..
Evers and the other instances of
violence in our community tragi-
cally must be shared by all of
us. Responsible leadership in
some instances has been singu-
larly lacking.
II entreat our leaders and men
of good will of both races to find
some common ground on which
to build a civic order based on
human dignity and a concept Of
Justice under Gods law. Rights
which have been given to all men
by the Creator cannot be the sub
iect of conferral or refusal by
men.
"The Declaration of Indepen'
dence of this great nation has Civ
en- us the proper attitude in this
regard, in the words. I'VE hold
these truths to be self evident
that all men are created equal,
i. that they are endowed by their
Creator with certain unalienable
Rights, that among these are Life
Liberty and the pursuit OF Happi-
ness"
"Our conscience should compel
us all to acknowledge the deep
moral implications of this prob
lem, and to take some positive
steps towards recognizing the
legitimate grievances Of the Ne
gro population. In the name of
our common faith in God the
Father let US all join together in
PRAYER that the clouds Of hate
and fear may be pierced by the
light of justice and fraternal
love"
