The House devoted good share Of Fri
day to discussing the House bill which
49, III
intoxicating liquor shall be turned into
the state treasury and redistributsd to the
several towns and cities in the state &C.
cording to their population. Mr.. DeBoer
OF Montpelier moved that the bill Be- dis

GoodaIl Of Nottingham said be was OPP
posed 10 the measure because his town
did not want to take this contaminated IL

pointed ont the injustice OF dividing the
money among the several towns OF the
state.
Mr.. Howe Of Bennington said this was
one OF a number OF bills that have been

One Of the strongest arguments in OPP
position to the bill was made Dy Mr..
Leary Of Burlington. He told OF existing
conditions in that city and showed what

taxpayers there. He said the representa-

let the license Law alone and not TO cripple
1t and put II to death.
Mr.. Bailou Of Chester said II this IL
cense money is tainted, let US purify it
by devoting It to the education Of our
children. Other iorcible arguments in
favor OF the bill were made by Mr..
Fuller Of Bloomfield. Mr.. Daniels Of East
Montpelier. Mr.. Williams Of Newport
and Mr.. Jones OF Sudbury. In opposing
the bill, Mr.. Howe OF St. Johnsbury
called attention to the lily white condi-
