Officials Duck
Zggnog Point
WASHINGTON flJ.fi) The
government has ducked the ques
tion of whether the food conser
vation program bars egg nogs on
unristmas Day.
A food official said the com
mittee is ignoring the fact that
Christmas falls on eggless Thurs
day. .
"W haven't received any re
quests for a special ruling," he
said. "And we probably would
not make one, anyway."
After all, he said, eggnogs sold
by milk companies are manufac
tured long before "hristmas. "Be
sides, Christmas comes but once
a year.'
Yanks Have
Ruble Trouble
MOSCOW UP) The U. S
embassy' here estimated It lost
about $50,000 through Russia's
revaluation of the ruble, and
spokesman indicated it- might take
special action b y Congress t o
keep the embassy going on its
present basis.
The embassy was caught in a
snare because of the State Depart
ment s own rules, a spokesman
said. Theoretically, under State
Department regul; ''ns, an em-
oassy officer could be held re
sponsible for the entire $50,000
loss, he said, explaining:
The Stale Department rules
said no embassy could keep more
man $100 on h;.nd, and that an
officer would be respoi.siblc for
any loss incurred in violation of
the edict. But the embassy, of
necessity, had to keep thousands
of dollars m cash on hand.
The embassy could not keep a
bank account. The comptroller
general does not allow U.S. repre
sentatives abroad to pay the costs
of such accounts, the spokesman
added.
