Mack Kufferman will make another attempt to win a state gambling license for his LaRue restaurant, it was indicated today. Apparently unconvinced by ac tion of the Nevada tax commission in denying him a license last week, Kufferman is expected to work out his troubles by conferring with the tax board officials in an effort to convince them he has no connec tion with the mobster heirarchy. Reports said also that Kufferman a Palm Springs millionaire and former New Jersey liquor kingpin, had abandoned previous plans of taking the tax commission into court and forcing them to show cause why a license should not be issued to him. Meanwhile, Kufferman is pro ceeding with extensive plans for re modeling of the LaRue restaurant on Highway 91. The remodeling and new construction is expected to cost nearly $1,000,000, it was said.

It reverses a long-stand ing OPS policy sharply criticized by chairmen of freedom of information committees of the American Society of Newspaper Editors (ASNE) and the Associated Press Managing Editors' association (APME). The chairmen James Pope, ex ecutive editor of the Louisville Courier-Journal and Times, for the ASNE, and James Russell Wiggins, managing editor of the Washington Post, for the APME opposed withholding such OPS information as "a bad and dangerous system, They said it could spread to other government agencies and was con trary to the principle of public ac cusation and trial. Arnall promised to review the policy when he took office seven weeks ago.

His decision: Effective May 1, OPS will make no formal announcement of unintentional price violations but district officers will enter the names and facts on book open at any time to the press and public; there will be no change in other cases, that is, those already being made public in which there is court action and settlement for more than the amount of over charge.

Seventh-Day Adventists of Reno will launch their annual Harvest Ingathering appeal Wednesday. April 16 according to E. E. Calkins, church pastor. The local church plans to reach Its goal in four weeks through a door-to-door solicitations campaign.

A combination appeal will be made. In addition to the regular and world wide uplift work, an ap peal will be made for funds to com' plete the new church building now under construction at Arlington and Monroe streets. The new church building in addition to the auditorium will contain class rooms for youth activities and space for the welfare society of the church, An appeal was conducted by 2878 Adventist churches in the United States and Canada last year. The funds were used for the support of medical, educational and evange listic activities carried on by Ad ventists in 193 of the 230 countries of the world. Additional funds were raised by members and mis sionaries overseas.

"Members in North America gave very liberally themselves to this work last year," Mr. Calkins ex- plained," but our own guns are not enough in this day when Christian missions are playing a vital role in the world's struggle for freedom. "Americans no longer dare ignore the suffering and ignorance that produce Cemmunism's breeding places," the church leader pointed out. He quoted Dr. Charles Malik Lebanon's minister to the United States: "The work of American missionaries abroad is more important than diplomacy in expressing the desire of the American people for peace and plenty in the world.

The hospitals and schools the churches have built are the best evidence you have to show your concern for the world." Last years gifts by members and their friends are being used to build new hospitals in Iraq, Nigeria and Paraguay, establish a school in Iran; and provide additional facili ties lor schools and hospitals in Mexico, Ethiopia, Jamaica, Angola and the Congo. The funds are used to carry on the denomination's mission program through 551 major institutions, including hospitals, schools and publishing houses. More than 3100 Adventist mission schools are in operation. Ground Is Broken For New Project LAS VEGAS, April 15. Ground was broken here last weekend for the first phase of a huge residential project by the Madsen Construction of Las Vegas, which when completed next fall will have added another 627 family dwelling units to the city residential area.

Actor Walter Brennan turned the first spadeful of dirt on acreage in the Boulder Homesite addition at Bruce and -Walnut streets where 117 single family dwellings, each with three bedrooms, will be con structed, and will be known as Mad sen Manor. City officials and of ficers of the construction firm took part in the groundbreaking cere monies. Three large tracts in Las Vegas have been purchased for the de- velopments on which work will be done progressively. The next phase of the project expected to start within 60 days, will be Charleston Village, and the third division will be all multiple units to be con structed in the Noblitt addition lo cated south of the Boulder Home site development.

Gold, Silver Output Upped It was reported today by Sen George Malone that gold and silver mining in Nevada evidenced marked increase during February. Mine production of gold soared 28 over January figures with 7.108 tons mined and silver mining showed a noted 16 increase with 60,666 tons being produced. National gold mining at the same time rose 8 and silver 2. Malone stated that the rise in Nevada can be attributed to the abatement of the severe winter storms which had crippled the mining industry in the previous months. The Nevada senator disclosed that these sharp increases can be relied on as a general trend in Nevada mining production.

George W. Malone today re leased mining figures which showed an increase of lead mining produc tion Nevada. Lead is still below the average monthly rate of 1951 but shows a 19 jump over the stormy month of January production. Last year's production figures are predicted to be soon reached and perhaps surpassed. "An rnnual winter drop and spring rise in mining production is a natural cycle in Nevada," said Malone added that the national demand for this strategic metal could well push lead mining in the state to a new overall record this year.

UP) The Walter Wanger shooting case, which Hollywood expected would produce some sizzling courtroom testimony, goes to court today but there'll be no sensations. Prosecution and defense attorneys agreed yesterday to let a judge decide the 57-year-old producer's fate on the basis of testimony before the grand jury. The county grand jury indicted Wanger, one of filmland's most respected moviemakers, last Dec. 18 on a charge of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to commit murder. Five days earlier in a Beverly Hills parking lot, while his wife, Actress Joan Bennett, looked on, Wanger shot her agent, Jennings Lang, 39.

Lang was seriously wounded in the groin but is now up and around again. Wanger said he did it because Lang "broke up my home." Miss Bennett and Lang said their relationship was strictly business. Lang, Miss Bennett and 10 other persons had been subpoenaed by the prosecution to testify in what was expected to be a bitter, lengthy trial. Now there will be no testi mony. Superior Judge Harry J.

Borde will read the grand jury transcript and decide the case, probably within two weeks. $200 a Month Even for Life! policy holder is laid up, with $400 a month payaDie tor as long as months when hospitalized. $5,000 insurance against accidental death, increasing to a maximum total of $10,000 is also included in the plan.
