YOU CAN'T WIN:
Treasure Hunters Must Cut
Uncle Sam in on Their Booty
WASHINGON Nov. 7.-(i)-It's
getting so a .body can't do the
simplest thing-like go hunt bur-
ied treasure-without giving the
government a cut of the booty.
Let us assume that the price of
eggs is going up.
Let us assume ditto for milk.
Let us assume ditto for rent.
Let us assume you could use
more money.
Okay. What is more natural
than finding buried treasure, a
fine, old American custom, to ag-
ment the family income?
At the indirect request of my
milkman who has been dropping
certain threats along with his bill,

Air Training
Aero Commission
To FightRestriction
LANSING, Nov. 7. - (P) - The
State Aeronautics Commission laid
the groundwork for its campaign
against the recent Veterans'
Administration ruling restricting
flight training at colleges at its
regularly monthly meeting here
today.
A committee was appointed to
meet with the State Airport Oper-
ators Association and Veterans'
Administration officials to de-
mand action so the ban on col-
legiate flight training can be lifted
by the start of the next school
'year. The Veterans' Administra-
tion ruling had the effect of prac-
tically eliminating college flight
instruction, especially at institu-
tions with high tuition fees.
The commission was informed
that approximately $75,000 of state
funds was spent for improvements
at more than 40 Michigan airports
during the past fiscal year. Much
of the money was matched by fed-
eral funds.
It was reported that action
by the legislative special session
transferring the title of the Lan-
sing City airport to the commis-
sion had cleared the way for con-
struction of a control tower at the
airport.

I have just completed a study of
the buried treasure situation.
Lovers of buried treasure the
facts are discouraging.
On Government Land
You see, the best; place to look
for buried treasure is on govern-
ment property. Anywhere else
we'd get arrested or shot for tres-
passing.
But we still have plenty of elbow
room. The government - or in
other words, we citizens-owns 24
percent of all the land in this
country, a tidy 455,183,251 acres.
Finders Keepers
Anything we locate on govern-
ment property is finders keepers.
But-
1. We first have to get a treasure
hunting permit, and
2. Solicitor Mastin G. White of
the Interior Department ruled last
month that before the permit is
granted the treasure trover should
be forced to sign an agreement let-
ting the government in on the
haul.
Just what percentage the gov-
ernment is to take still hasn't
been determined.
The Question
Shall we get our treasure hunt-
ing license anyway?
Well, it turns out that the In-
terior Department, which controls
most of the government land, re-
ceives about six requests a month
from would-be treasure hunters.
But it is very persnickety about
giving out licenses. It asks such
questions as:
What makes you think treasure
is buried there?
How do you plan to locate it?
Let's see your tattered old maps.
Its usual answer is, No.
Get License
But let's suppose the impossible
happened. We get the license. We
find the treasure. We give the
Interior its cut. Who would be
waiting to greet us and our buil-
lion billions?
You're right. The income tax
boys.
So I have decided regretfully, to
give the whole thing up.
Tell the milkman that I'm sorry.

Buy Alcohol--
Only for Car
Students under 21 are buying
alcohol all over Ann Arbor-but
don't get excited sheriff, it's for
their car radiators not their gul-
lets.
There is "plenty of alcohol" for
anti-freeze purposes, local gas sta-
tions report But most of it evap-
orates with use-motorists who
want to protect their car radia-
tors with one gulp will have a hard
time this winter because of the
shortage of permanent type anti-
freeze.
"Automobiles may look tough,
but you can't mix their drinks-"
temporary anti-freeze makes them
reel and stagger when mixed with
the permanent type, according to
one garage owner.
Potential competitors of local
taverns were dubious about anti-
freeze effects on humans, although
one cause of the shortage is mot-
prists who buy more than their
cars need, according to an Asso-
ciated Press dispatch.
With a greater number of au-
tomobiles in use and demands for
chemicals in other industries cut-
ting manufacture of anti-freeze,
'gas stations are reported stocking
up on denatured alcohol in an at-
tempt to meet the current scarc-
ity, the AP said. College students
were not mentioned as a cause of
the shortage.

winter and also a severe housing
shortage, their country is moving
ahead under its own power, Drs.
Adamec and Viden asserted. A
two-year economic recovery plan
has more than met its monthly
goals so far.
Czech universities have almost
completely recovered after the
looting of libraries and student ex-
ecutions and imprisonments which
they suffered at the hands of the
Nazis, Dr. Adamec added.
Viden, incidentally, accustomed
to coeducational Czech colleges,
said he was surprised to find him-
self on an all-male campus when
he and Dr. Adamec visited Prince-
ton recently.
