And so far, the State of Washing- ton seems to be holding its own The Soviet orbit in this case is represented by the People’s Re-| 2 public of Bulgaria, which claims | the $7,000 estate of a coal miner | whe died in Bellingham recently. The Bulgarian Minister Pleni- potentiary and Envoy Extraor-} dinary says the late coal miner} left three sisters and a brother in Bulgaria. And they have a right to the money. The State of Washington takes a different view. First, it doubts that there are any such relatives. More imp ant, the state says that if there are, they would not be likely t» get any of the money away fron. the Bulgarian People’s Republic. Judge Hobart Dawson! } is thinking it over. | McGRATH WANTS Continued From Page ne) Favoring gambling information. the measure, McGrath said Con- ss could give horse race book- makers a knockout blow by de- nying them the use of telephone, telegraph and radio information| # needed in their operations. * * In addition to illegal bookmak- ing on racing, McGrath said the gamblers seem to have moved in- to large scale betting operations in such amateur and professional events as baseball, basketball and football. The Attorney General added: “It is fairly obvious that none of these betting operations of any could be maintained without telephone, telegraph and other rapid trarsmission facilities.” McGrath said the proposed ban would nor interfere with distri- bution of legitimate sports news. In the case of radio and tele- vision, McGrath said, the _ bill would require a one-hour time, lag in announcing or showing the tinish of.a horse race. That would mean TV could only use a movie of a horse race. McGrath said the time lag would make the broadcast of lit- tle value to bookmakers. “We feel.” he said, “that only the gambling who stand to gain from the rela- tionship of such broadcasts to! ch F in, bi ay gambling, will be hurt or com-!that you are ré plained “Lest anyone raise the charge}? for the broadcast of gambling in. e Ms oe on formation concerning horse roces| aiiegations In & is censorship for the ‘ television, may I hasten to point flatly prohibited, not merely de- (SEAL) ee, layed for an hour, the radio, broadcasing of information con-} of gambling with » commercis} , horse racing } Key interests, or those! ..,, NOTICE that the Rates Per Line of Space for © \ Day ‘f <3 Consecutive Days 6 Consecutive Days 45 Consecutive Days .
