THE LIQUOR QUESTION

While we disagree with Mr. George H. Lamar author
Of the county local option law which has stood for over
half century, aspects of the liquor problem

the licensing of hghass inns and restaurants amounts
to radical departure from the original theory back
OF the dspensary system AS Mr. Lamar says the dis
pensary law primarily designed to keep the profit
seeking type of liquor dealers and apply any profit which
might result from the sale of liquor fund dedicated
to the use of roads and schools.
We do not agree that the licensing of highype res
taurants and inns would necessarily result in dangerous
traffic hazards and reckless behavior Washingtonians will
drive out roads after having visited D. c. night
clubs serving liquor. Residents of Montgomery County
patronizing Washington night clubs will home over
our roads. 1t is about fifty-ffty proposition
The big mistake made in the framing of the orig
ina Liquor bill following repeal 1t would have settled
many arguments if only OFF-SALE licenses had been
granted for the sale of both hard liquors. beer and wines
When the clubs granted the privilege of selling hard
liquor, there consequently caor from the owners
OF the highcass inns and restaurants. And to
certain extent, their protest is justified
When analyses the liquor situation, he finds that
there is adequate solution to the problem when liquor
d sold in nearby communities and is easily obtained in
few minutes driving It appears that the sentiment of
the rural districts voting April % the question of con-
tnung the sale of beer and light wines within these dis
icts is DRY Just the predominant sentiment in the
suburban sections is WET so, let the referendum in
these seven districts be taken indication of the opinion
there. 1t cannot be taken strictly dry division
