M4 BOND STREET PHONE 849 Tito Acts Against Czech Official Belgrade, Yugoslavia, Aug. 18 UI'i Marshal Tito's government today stripped a Czech consular official In Zagreb of all diplomutlc privileges after accusing him of encouraging anti-Tito saboteurs in Yugoslavia. An official announc e m e n t charged that Stefan Horvat. Czech deputy consul general in Zagreb, had committed "unlawful acts and worked towards straining rela tions between Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia." The Yugoslav communist organ Borba said Horvat "established close connection with hostile and saboteur elements in Yugoslavia to whom he extended support and incited ttheml to commit offenses against Yugoslavia." Dry Oklahoma Still Gets Liquor Oklahoma City 'IP Assistant attorney general Sam Lattimore believes-, revival ot a oone-ury law has cut the flow of whiskey into Oklahoma but bootleggers don't agree. Lattimore said Little Rock. Ark., informants told him the re vived law has kept some SI. 000. 000 worth of Oklahoma-bound whiskey bottled up In Arkansas warehouses. He said suppliers ap parently are lying low until the federal government makes up its mind whether it will act under the law. The law permits federal alcohol tax unit agents to seize liquor shipments destined for dry Okla homa. It passed the 22nd Okla homa legislature, hidden in the fine print of another bill. If out-of-state suppliers are ly ing low, Oklahoma bootleggers haven't noticed it. A statewide survey showed bootleg whiskey plentiful, at prices close to those charged in neighboring wet states. A pint of red label whiskey, the fastest-selling item handled by the average Oklahoma dealer, was available at from S3 to $4 in the towns checked. That com pares with the Dallas price of $3.59 and the Kansas City quota tion ol Vi.iU lor a tenth, or one tenth of a gallon. Oklahoma liquor buyers enjoy a service which few package stores in wet states offer free delivery', day or night. One boot legger, saying prices had dropped because of competition in the last six months, summed up the Oklahoma situation this way: "There's no shortage of whis key, but there's a shortage of customers." DESPERADO ESCAPES Portland, Aug. 18 IF Police said today that Harold William Manning. 30, ex-convict described as "dangerous." disappeared from headquarters while being held on a burglary charge.
