Newspaper Page TextBuried Treasure f Stamps From Nonexistant Countries Getting Scarcer I had never heard of the coun try of Antioquia, but Mr. Garcia was sure there was such a place, or at least that there had been. "My father traveled all over South America, and I know he would neve have bought these stamps if he hadn't intended to use them," he said. "Maybe he bought them for philatelic purposes," I said, bending forward to scrutinize the two items. "Quite a number of stamps were put out in Latin America just for sale to collec tors. The stamps were identical, a brown item of five centavos de nomination, printed on what is known as laid paper. Across the top was the denomination in let ters and numerals. In the center wad a circle containing a design. About the circle were the words "Correos de Antioquia" Anti- SYRUP PITCHER MAY HAVE ware to have a collector's value, it seemed to me, would be a - syrup pitcher with a patent metal top. And yet they do have a collec- : tor's value some of them as I found out one day shortly after I saw a girl dart from table to table in the hotel dining room, snatching up the syrup pitcher for a hasty examination. I was pretty sure that she wasn l loOKing 10 see u me syrup was poisonea or leaiung. . Quite evidently she was con deemed only with something on. the metal top. wnen she got to my table I asked her what it was. "Mrs. Smith can't find her personal syrup pitcher," the girl said, "and it's ray fault. I was cleaning them and I got it mixed up with the others." "But how you going to recog nize it?" I asked. "Maybe I can help you find it." AFRICAN COIN DEAL YIELDS The com Jack handed me was as large as a silver dollar a little larger, maybe but it was of gold. "I bought It in the Sudan last summer, for $150 in American bills. What do you think it's worth?"- The coin was a new one to me, but I was pretty sure it was an Ethiopian piece. The letters in the inscription around the edges were from no alphabet I could recall. And the face of the ruler, in right profile on the obverse, reminded me somewhat of the picture I had once seen of some of Haile Selassie's prede cessors. As for the crowned lion bearing a cross on the reverse he looked like a dead ringer for the Conquering Lion of Judah. The guess was a good one. Wayte Raymond's "Coins of the World," the first catalogue I looked at, had a picture of it. But it didn't give a price. In 26 PERSONAL Roofing. Siding. Painting. All types.

It didn't take long to find out that Antiquoia was one of the nine sovereign states that made up the Republic of Colombia back before the Revolution of 1885. After that, though each of the nine states became a depart ment, they still retained the right to issue their own stamps jealously preserving . it '. until well into this century. Mr. Garcia's stamps, how ever, were pre-revolution, of the issue put out in 1883. We found one of them pictured in Scott's catalogue. Their value Isn't so very much. Unused,, as his were, it was given at $50 each $25 for the canceled stamp. Mr. Garcia, however, got $130 for his two. They are becoming scarcer and the buyer' was willing to pay a premium in order to speed up the sale. . ; " COLLECTOR'S VALUES "It has a beaded design on the glass," she said, "but that's not so different from some of the other designs. So I'm going by what Mrs. Smith says is the clincher the patent date, June 29, 1884." The girl found it almost im mediately after I joined the hunt. "See," she said, "That's what they call the beaded band design." The pattern consisted princi pally of three rows of what are known as dewdrops running round the pitcher, the middle one being the larger. Below them was a row of panels, of alternating rounded and pointed design. I accompanied the girl when she returned it to Mrs. Smith. It had been made back L. the 1880s and had belonged to her mother. "I got a duplicate of it for my sister a few months ago," she said, "and the cheapest I could get it for was $15." FINE PROFIT fact, all it had to say on the matter was that gold coins had been struck at Addis Ababa from the dies for silver coins, probably as presentation pieces. "What do you think I can get for it?", Jack asde. "Why not ask for some offers first. And then if they are only a few hundred, ask for $2,000. You can always drop the price." Jack looked almost frightened as he asked for a list .of gold coin collectors. I gave him the name of ten men to start with, and within the week he called to say he had sold the piece for $5oo.. . . . As for the price he had asked as a top figure, it was only $1,000. ' So it was not at all surprising that the Menelik coin the name of the monarch on the ob verse side sold a few days la ter for $900.

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIFTEEN "The idea that Idaho Power Company's Brownlee . and Ox bow projects will contribute to the nation's defense is an insult to our intelligence. Defense is not involved in this at all," he said. "This is just a multi-million dollar gift from the taxpayers to Idaho Power Company, and make a mockery of the com pany's repeated contentions that Brownlee rnd Oxbow will be built without expense to the taxpayers." Marr called atten tion to a statement made by R. P. Parry, IPC attorney, to the Federal Power Commission in 1953 when the company was ap plying for a license to build Brownlee and Oxbow dams: "The applicant (IPCo) is here before you asking the privilege of constructing sole ly with its own money and without -one pent of cost to the taxpayers of the United States' a great multi-purpose project along with an integra ted hydro-electric project of large capacity." Self Liquidating Marr also pointed out that Federal hydroelectric projects such as high Hells Canyon dam, "are self-liquidating government investments. Every cent of the power cost of high Hells Canyon dam will be repaid to the Fed eral Treasury with interest." The first ax write-off pro cedure ha recently been bran ded as immoral by conservative Sen. Harry Byrd, 'chairman of the Senate Finance Committee.
