Tax Collectors-Aid In Improving Scotch New York - (UPD - Tax col lectors in England have un knowingly played a big part In the qualit; of Scotch, ac cording to officials of the Ban lantine distillery in Scotland. Scotch distilleries original ly were located by the sea to make it easier to smuggle whisky out by ship without paying the- high taxes. It was not until years later that it was discovered that aging the Scotch 'a barrels exposed to sea air greatly improved its quality. They'll Do It Every Time . By Jimmy Hatlo DOCTOR.'

HAUGHT United Press International Oklahoma City -IUPII- The city which sprang up on the prairie in a day now claims the distinction of being t h e largest city in the united States in area, that is. Through scries of annex ations over the past three years, Oklahoma's capital city has expanded to 483 square miles. Previously, Los Angeles held the area title, with 454.9 square miles. By comparison, New York Cily's five bor oughs cover 359 4 square miles. size slightly more than 32 miles from east to west and 28 miles from north to south.

Population growth has been steady over the years, going from 204,424 in 1940 to 243, 504 in 1950 and324,253 in the 1960 census. City leaders began the far- reaching annexation program with a master plan three years ago. The city council has nass- ed about 285 annexation ordi nances. Spearheading the job has been Paul Clowers, director of the city planning commis sion, whm is quick to answer criticism by other areas of the state about the city's "land grabbing" practices. "Ever since World War H the big cities in our country have been becoming slowly encircled by nailer commu nities," Clowers said. "Pittsburgh and St. Louis are good examples. Pittsburgh has some 130 separate towns and villages around it and cannot niove out in any direc tion. So our plan was, and is, to provide the space " the proper expansion of the ciW in the future, space that wMl let the city move and grow like it should." During the post war explo- j sion in growth, housing ue vclopers promoted additions outside the city limits with improper streets, sewers, wa ter lines and home construc tion, Clowers said. Soon, in dividuals wanti ' to become a part of the city and recci e the services of the city. "In short, Oklahoma City was straddled with mainte nance of inadequate facilitits inadequate according l.i building code standards," hi said. Thus one reason for extend ing the city limits is "so we aren't buildin? future blight." Another reason is "protecting our vital interests." In the latter category, Clow e listed Lakes Hefner and Ovcrholser, the citv's three airports, t h e expressways, Tinker Air Force base and Elm Creek reservoir being built south of Tinker. "Without having such in stallations in the city limits there is virtually no contl of what is built in these areas." he said.
