Maryland Seeks to Curb Illicit Liquor Imports From DC
Maryland plans a crackdown on large volume liquor brought illegally from the District of Columbia. Edward M. Akers, chief investigator, said Frederick County is under surveillance, focusing on buyers buying more than three cases. Investigators surveyed five Washington streets selling to Marylanders, compiling data on two quart purchases and watching for repeat violators. Convicted offenders face fines up to 1000 dollars and up to two years in jail.

City Folks In Market For Farm Lands
Washington reports a boom in farm land purchases by both city residents and investors. New England and Middle Atlantic states show many non-farm buyers, while Midwest buyers invest for income or to support larger farming operations. Farmers with existing land buy more to utilize new equipment. The shift helps explain farm consolidation since 1945.
