REGULATION
+. OF LIQUOR IS URGED
Federal Council of Churches
Issues Report Seeking
Aid in Control.
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, January 2.-The Ex-
ecutive Committee of the Federal Coun-
Gil of Churches of Christ in America
today made public message on the
present liquor problem" urging support
in obtaining "the best forms OF con-
troll now possible"
The chief emphasis is laid upon the
initiation of a program Of adequate
education. which is described as the
primary contribution Of the churches
to the solution Of the liquor problem"
The message urges "all Who are con-
cerred for sobriety and social welfare
including those who are convinced that
prohibition is the only final solution
of the great evil to give their sup
port " securing the best forms Of con-
troll now possible
Considerations Listed.
In dealing with methods Of control
the report suggests these fundamental
considerations"
Il. The saloon must not be allowed
to return.
- Since the power of the liquor
traffic has come in large measure from
its alliance with politics. control of the
traffic must be divorced from partisan
politics and patronage
''3. The element of profit must be
strictly limited in order that the con-
sumption of liquor may not be stirnu-
lated. The greed OF private traffic in
intoxicating liquors is SO unrestrained
that 1t will not be content to supply
normal demand but will persistently
seek to create demand by all means
within its power.
a. Limitation Of profit can best be
accomplished at present by placing the
manufacture and sale of liquor under
the regulation Of agencies set up by
government and under rigid restric-
ton as to quantity, prices and divi-
dends
IS. In addition to measures initiated
by the States, the Federal Government
should retain a large degree Of control,
extending not only to interstate ship
ments but also to standards. quantities
of liquor to be produced or imported
and to the illicit traffic. There should
be regulation of the industry by ma
tional codes and code authorities.
Advertising Control Urged.
"6 There is a grave danger, already
apparent, that the Government Will
seek to profit from the liquor traffic
through heavy taxation. While this
traffic should bear its share of the
public burdens, it is as important to
subordinate profit in governmentally
controlled traffic as in one privately
owned and operated. To depend upon
the traffic for large revenues tends to
make the public ignore its evils.
u. In order that the appetite for
intoxicantS shall not be stimulated. and
especially that young people shall be
protected from their seductive appeal.
all advertising of liquor should be sub
Ject to strict governmental control and
should be reduced to the lowest pos
sible limits.
"8. Since II States have constitu-
tional prohibition after Federal repeal,
and others have Statewide prohibition
laws. and since large areas where dry
sentiment prevails will desire State or
local option, the rights of these States
and areas should be Safeguarded by
the Federal authorities. and within the
States by State authorities. Provision
for local option should be incorporated
in all State systems of control"

study following repeal in the United
States is not affected under Dominion
wide regulations. but each of the niuc
provinces has its own control act.
They closely resemble each other.
however. All embody the paramount
feature of provincial monopolies for the
retail sale of alcoholic beverages. with
practical elimination of private profit.
Manufacture is in private hands, but
under the supervision of liquor boards
or commissions. Retail wares are sold
at government liquor stores and at
licensed hotels and restaurants
Most profits go to reserve funds for
general purposes of the provinces and
in some instances to law enforcement.

ceived S33,l34,00O in revenue from ex-
else and custom duties and other taxes,

provinces were nearly $25,000000.
