JOBS FOR MINE WORKERS IS GOAL Washington — Chairman Synith, (D.-W .Va.) of the House Mines and mining kommittee indorsed “whole- heartedly” last week a proposal to boost business in the coal fields through development of generating plants powered with coal. “It would be a big step toward sol- | ving the problems of overproduction ana unemployment in the soft coal fields,” he said. “If carried out it also would mean hundreds of thousands of jobs for mi- ners now unemployed.” Representative Fries (D.-Ill.), au- thor of the proposal added other thou- sands o fjobs would be provided through many divergent phases of tne program, Fries would create an agency, prob- develop the steam-electric plants throughout the country. Such plants, Fries said, would pro- vide cheap €lectric power to consu- mers, and consume many hundreds of thousands of tons of coal annually. In addition he proposed establish- ment of at least two research labora- tories to seek new uses for coal and its by-products. He predicted that his plan would raean jobs for evry coal miner in the country and would provide thousana: of jobs in associated industries. WILL SELL SLOW MOVING LIQUORS Harrisburg — The Liquor Control Board anticipates little difficulty clo- sing out 369 brands of slow-moving liquor and wines in the state stores at “full mark-up” prices to liquidate stock valued at $700,000 to $1,000,000, Acting Chairman W. Worrell Wagner said last week. Denying published reports that “bar- gain basment prices” may be necess- ary to clear store shelves of “frozen stock,” Wagner said the 250 items pla- ced on the “sellout” lists Monday are moving rapidly and many vendors have agreed to take back unsalable brands and replace them with items in demand. “We have not added a new item in the state stores since October,” Wag- ner said, “and at the beginning of bus- iness this week had 1,500 coded items on our shelves. “We now have approximately 550 items on our close-out lists with those added this week, which includes 369 brands, some of which have been in stock since the start of the liquor store system.” He explained that it had been ne- cessary to keep in stock some slow- moving items because of occasional agemands which had to be filled. He said the 500 items being closed out did not represent more than $1,000,000 of the state store system’s current to- tal inventory of $10,750,000. “While the retail price of ‘decoded’ items has been reduced slightly,” Wag- ner said, we will sell the bulk of them at the regular mark-up level, or turn them back to the vendors, for replace- ments. No ‘bargain basement prices’ are necessary.” DO YOU KNOW Sterilization of the air in operating rooms is being practiced with a view to further reducing the possibility of surgical infection.

Reports also showed that many more rabbits and pheasants will be released : within the next three months by sev- eral of the clubs "affiliated with the county association. Members of the association also ar- ranged tentative plans for the annual sportsmen’s picuic and field day. The affair will be held Sunday, July 23, on the Ebensburg Fairgrounds. Ira Bloom, president of the Cambria Co- unty Fair Association, assured the sportsmen they would be granted per- mission to use the fairgrounds for the annual outing. Plans also were announ- ced for an elaborate program to be staged during the afternoon. Com- mittee to complete arrangements for the picnic will be composed of dele- gates from every club in the county | affiliated with the association, it was announced by John H. McFadden, pre- sident of the association. Sportsmen also discussed plans for the improvement of Duman Dam, lo- cated on a branch of Black Lick Creek, between Belsano and Nicktown. The dam long has been known as an ex- cellent bass and sucker fishing site. The association hopes to make major improvements on the breast of the dam within the next month or two. Members also suggested that the | association make an effort to improve one dam in the county each year. Frank Maser and William Goodman both of Johnstown, were appointed to contact the game committee of the Fennsylvania Federation of Spaqrts- men’s Associations in Harrisburg re- garding the revision of the present groundhog hunting law. The associa- tion received word that a bill had been presented to the Legislature calling for the revision of the law so that hunting woodchucks with a dog would be legal. The delegates will seek to assist the federation in “lobby- ing” the bill through the house, it was said. Members of the association also dis- cussed the possibility of ejecting a conservation course in the regular high school curriculum in the state. It was decided to contact officials of the De- partment of Public Instruction with the hope of securing their assistance in | promoting the course, which sports- men believe is very important to the youth of today.
