Liquor-! by-the-drink advocates In the bot tle states of Oregon and Wash ington campaigned with parallel arguments this week In their drive to legalize the retail high ball. In both states, liquor-dispensing was developing rapidly Into a major Issue on the Nov. 2 gener al ballot, with the proponents led by prospective dispensers and the opponents led by temperance or ganizations. State Licenses Proposed Initiative laws would authorize the Washington State Liquor Control Board and the Oregon Liquor Control Commis sion to issue liquor-by-the-drink dispensing licenses to hotels, res taurants, clubs, public carriers, and, in the case of Washington, tourist establishments. In Oregon, the initiative would permit liquor-by-the-drink re gardless of whether the dispenser serves food. The measure to be submitted to Oregonians bears the official title, "Oregon Liquor Dispensing Act." Knox Amendment The Oregon Liquor Commission would prescribe any further con- More people use Morton's Plain or Iodized When it rains it pours ditions to be placed upon dis pensors. The measure, described by Its supporters simply as a "modifica tion" of the existing law which permits only beer and light wines in public establishments, calls for an annual license fee of $500, a "performance" bond of $5000, and, in addition to the purchase price of the liquor, a 25 cent tax on each 32 ounces. A one-cent tax would be assessed for each ounce over 32 In a container. It goes on the ballot for a "yes" or "no" vote. Historically, Oregon went on a state-control basis in 1933. Dr. William S. Knox, after months of study and survey, submitted a re port to the state legislature which eventually enacted the Knox Act, placing the sale of high-powered alcoholic beverages, including "fortified" wine, in the hands of stores operated by the liquor com mission. In succeeding years, Oregonians have fought off at tempts to modify the law. Chilled, But Steamed Up LOS ANGGELES When Mrs. Isabel Cotton thought her landlords were giving her the cold treatment she got plenty steamed up enough to file a $12,000 dam age suit against Paul and Ida Tresser. The Tressers, she charged, tried to drive her out of the house by cutting down the heat in her room, disconnecting all heat in the bath room, nailing the bathroom win dows open, and removing the bathroom shades. Mrs. Cotton said she suffered bronchitis, insomnia, and gall bladder trouble from the resulting chill and embarrassment. The defendants, denying the charges, said they gave Mrs. Cot ton an eviction notice because their own lease had expired.

Tucker, automobile builder, and 17 other defendants with conspir ing to defraud stockholders. Among the charges in the amended complaint are: That the first "Tucker Tor pedo" which was advertised having just come off the assembly lines was in reality a hand-built redesigned 1942 Oldsmobile. That Tucker, president of the Tucker Corp., bought an airplane for $40,000 of the corporations money and leased it to the com pany for $6,000 a month. Bought Home That Tucker used corporation money to buy a home near Bo gota, Colombia, South America. In a prepared statement, Tuck' er declared; "The accusations in this peti. tion simply repeat the same un founded charges that resulted in dismissal of the suit Sept. 25 by Judge Michael Igoe. "It is inconceivable that sup posedly intelligent attorneys could file a suit so rampant with inaccuracies as this one." Navy Working on New Rocket With a Close Shot Knock-Out Bv MAUREEN GOTHLIN United Press SlHff Correspondent WASHINGTON (U.R) The Na vy is working on a new-type rocket which experts believe will enable a fighter plane to knock out a bomber with one "close" shot, it was learned early in Oc tober. A radio-controlled proximity fuse that would explode the rock et automatically when It neared Its target is the trick in the highly-secret new weapon. Navy rocket specialists said the nroxiinitv fuse rocket could be used against ground targets a well as in high-speed aerial com bat. The project combines two of the foremost weapon developments of World War II the radio-control led "VT" fuse, and the aircraft rocket. Jet fighters and bombers offer new problems as high-speed tar gets. With the new rocket, Navy experts said, a fighter would not have to score a direct hit on an. other plane, but would only have Kidnaped Child Returned Safe to come within a certuin radius. The proximity fuse is a tiny radio In the nose of a projectile that sets off the explosive as soon as it reaches the magnetic field around the target. Specialists esti mate that the rugged five-tube ra dio In the fuse would set off the explosive wiunn 7U reet or an airplane. That Is close enough to shower fragments on the target, they paid. It was not learned how far the new weapon has been developed. But It was understood It would be ready for any future war. The 1200-pound "Tiny Tom" rockets went at a rate of 900 feet per second In World War II. But postwar development of rock et motors is said to have more than tripled the speed of "whoosh" projectiles. The new weapon Is one reason Navy men are skeptical of the long-range bomber's ability to go anywhere without fighter escort. They argue that the efficiency of both fighters and radar has been increased so much that no bomber Is Fafe by Itself except in bad weather. The proximity fuse was hailed for the unprecedented accuracy it gave gunfire during the war. It was used In the Navy's five-inch exinn nhrtnrd shin, the Navv's baltimum '-) ira-wra majn anti-aircraft weapon, and in old Jo Ann Mezzanotte, fast asleep artillery fire in France, and and well fed, was restored to her against Nazi buzz bombs over mother's arms Thursday some 21 London. hours after she had been snatched ; from her carriage. I Capt. Henry J. Kriss. captain of detectives, said Mrs. Leona Shefflet, 46-year-old mother of j three, would be charged withj stealing the baby. Two detectives found Jo Ann on a bed at Mrs. Shefflet's home In suburban Dundalk. They had been checking license numbers given them by Mrs. Frances Kucinski, who saw a strange woman toss a bundle of clothing into a cemetery and drive off. Police commissioner Hamilton R. Atkinson arrived at police headquarters carrying Jo Ann in one hand and a bottle of milk in the other. "Let me see my baby, just let me see her," cried 28-year-old Dolores Mezzanotte, the mother. She had left Jo Ann parked in her carriage outside a drug store while she went in to buy vitamin drops and a nursing bottle. Capt. Kriss said Mrs. Shefflet told of having troubles and thought a new baby in the family might be the solution. He ordered that she be examined by psychiatrists. Widow Gets Life pninnir . "(Illr i. n .
