Landowners in Frederick County resist sale to park plan
A Foxville farmer explained he will not sell his 114 acre family farm as Interior Department efforts expand to create a national recreation park. He and others fear displacement and lack of suitable new homes, noting generations have lived on the land. Government options total over 8,000 acres in Frederick and Washington counties with plans to add 4,000 to 6,000 more, mirroring disputes seen near Shenandoah National Park where hundreds faced eviction notices and subsistence homesteads.

Scout Scare Of Spies In Orders
Washington officials rejected links between a spy scare and a presidential order banning civil aircraft from flying over army and naval arsenals and ammunition depots. The aim was to prevent planes from dropping into stores, endangering the countryside, while noting the ban blocks aerial reconnaissance of reservations. Thirty-four zones included parts of the Aleutian Islands, though none contain ammunition depots.

Senate Debates New Federal Rum Control Bill
Washington Aug 13 A bill to set up new federal control over the liquor industry is debated in the Senate. It would require distillers importers dealers in interstate commerce to obtain permits from a three member administrative board and to follow fair trade practices. The measure, already passed by the House, has been revised by the Senate finance committee. The House authorized liquor sales in barrels to hotels clubs but the Senate struck this out citing bootlegging concerns. Cooperage groups push for barrels in retail trade. The administration would be under an independent agency, with deceptive advertising banned except for liability exemptions for newspapers magazines and broadcasters.
