An FBI spokesman said the Justice Department is seek ing legislation to strengthen enforcement of the anti-slots act, passed in 1951, and to extend the reach of the law to include certain types of pinball machines. The move may be made in the January Congress. The spokesman said most slot machine operations have been effectively limited since the launching of a federal crackdown nearly a decade ago. But he said further leg islation was needed Since enactment of the Johnson-Preston anti-slots act, the FBI has- seized 14,981 slot machines and won court convictions. Highpoint in the drive was 1952 when the FBI seized 13,906 machines across the nation. Few Slots Left An FBI spokesman said very few localities any longer have slot machines. Last year only 75 such devices were seized under the Johnson Preston Act, which is aimed at inter-state transportation of coin-operated gambling de vices. . Actually, slot machines are not a major domestic prob lem. Most of them are found In Nevada, where gambling is big business-and legal-and Maryland, where they are per mitted as a matter of local umintv nntion. But the foreign trade in slots is another matter. Henry Preston, a veteran in tne jus tire deDartment's criminal di vision, said the machines are becoming increasingly pup"- lar in other countries, includ ing Japan and Germany. Only last month, agents seized 420 slot machines consigned to London on grounds the ship per failed to register them for overseas delivery. In an effort to block such overseas shipments, the Jus tice Department has had to attack the problem through registration laws. It would like more specific authority, such as a law making it il legal to ship slots in foreign commerce. Various Ideas The department also has various ideas as to how other sections of the law could be improved. For one thing it would like to see Congress pass - legislation that would make slot machine manufac turers maintain better busi ness records. As it is, agents sometimes have trouble trac ing the machines to their man ufacturers. Peterson said the problem continues to plague enforce ment officials because "there's so much easy money involv ed." It doesn't strain the imag ination to come to the con clusion that hoodlums follow the slots," he added. Wherever slots exist, he said, usually is found a great er concentration of hoods and resultant greater opportunities for shakedown murders and gangfights. Jet Engine Used As Gas Turbine Possum Trot, Ky. - (Science Serviced - The combination of aircraft power with an indus trial need has resulted in harnessing a jet engine as a gas - powered turbine. The stationary power source is now pumping 600,000,000 cu bic feet of natural gas a day here- , .u DT The advantage of the Rl- 248 gas turbine is that it pro vides tremendous power in a "small package." A Pratt & Whitney Aircraft , J-57 jet engine was adapted to run on natural gas in the RT-248 gas turbine, designed by The Cooper - Bessemer Corporation, Mount Vernon, Ohio. , The RT-248 is expected to find wide use in the natural gas. petroleum and petro chemical industries. A vari ation of this gas turbine is also expected to provide elec tric power, both for homes and industry, and to power ships. Plans for municipal electric plants with this gas ,.rhine are now under study. Less than four hours are reeded to remove the - jut en gine section and replace it when necessary. Convention al engines require weeks of shutdown for overhaul. ANTIMONY SOURCE - Bolivia is the principal world source of antimony ore.
