FIGHT FOR LIQUOR CONTROL TO
BE UP IN STATE LEGISLATURE

would write the laws and the local
authorities would enforce them.
Cities and counties also would be
empowered, under terms of the
proposed legislation, to collect hq-
uor fees and issue licenses, the To-
cal governments to keep the rever
nue. derived from these sources.
A single exception would be q
state excise tax on liquor.
Naturally, members of the board
are not in agreement with this plan
which would rob them OF much OF
their power. Chairman Richard T..
Collins put it this way Proper
enforcement must be directed by q
central body"
Many communities will favor the
plan if only from a financial
standpoint. Proponents of local
option believe the proposal at least
step in the right direction. Liq-
uor interests are afraid of 1t be-
cause some districts might go
"dry" through prohibitiye fees.
With so many forces pulling IN
opposite directions, the fight has
almost limitless possibilities and 1t

PROGRAM
PRESENTED At
KIWAN|S CLUB

Ladies day was observed this
noon by Kiwanis club members
who pI<snted a fine program for
the enjoyment of their guests who
met at the Barbara Worth hotel.
The elementary school teachers
choir, garbed in surplices, sang a
series of Christmas carols under the
direction of Miss Margaret Kendall.
Gene Moore. accompanied by
Ruth Teeple Reid. sang thre vocal
solos. which, like the carols, were
greatly enjoyed.
DR.. T. w. MacQuarrie. president
of San Jose State Teachers col
lege, was the speaker of the day,
giving entertaining accounts OF the
gullability of the general public.
He declared that when students
come to him asking him for advice
as to how to become better sales
men. he feels that perhaps some
thing should be done TO enable the
general public to withstand the
onslaughtS OF the high pressure
salesman.
That he had suffered in his day,
DR.. MacQuarrie proved by pointing
out his purchase of land many
years ago in Coachella Valley this
same land now affording a resting
place for a group of sand dunes.
DR.. MacQuarrie states that while
there are still many "suckers to-
day, the general public has become
somewhat less credulous as q result
OF the depression. The speaker
told incidents relating the many
easy and ingenious ways in which
money could be raised due TO the
credulity of the public.
DR.. R. c. Clemons was chairman
of the day.
