Chapman Lets Permit Issue Light On Final Lausche Period
In his first public statement former Ohio liquor chief Harlan T. Chapman says permits issued in Lausche’s final days came with information as received. He cites a 5 p.m. call from a governor’s secretary ordering no more D3 or D5 licenses and defends continuing regular D4 and other permits. He notes potential revocation power and recalls past memos urging review of club permits and 15 day filing rules.

Graf Spee Could Have Won Battle Says Adm. King
Adm. Ernest J. King, wartime U S fleet chief, said the Graf Spee could have defeated two British light cruisers off Montevideo in December 1938 if the captain had chosen to fight rather than scuttle. The ship, damaged in the engagement, sought repairs in Montevideo. King noted its superiority in firepower could have finished the cruisers if engaged one at a time.
