Liquor Control
Will Urge State
Tax Reduction
Would Have Figure Commen-
surate With That OF Dis
trict Of Columbia

Reduction of the Maryland State
liquor tax to a figure commensurate
with that of the District Of Column
bia will be urged by the Montgom-
cry County Liquor Control Board.
The board Monday discussed several
items of a proposed legislative pro-
gram which is to be sent to the Mont
gomery County commissioners for
submission to the county members Of
the State Legislature.
The board pointed out that Mary
land tax is double that of the District
and that this provides considerable
differential which the District MERCK
ants can use to lower prices. The tar
per quart is approximately IA cents
in the District and % cents in Mary
land. Virginia with no State tax can
undersell both Maryland and the Dis
trict in its dispensary systems the
board pointed out.
Change in the liquor law to per-
NIT sale of all wines IA per cent or
under in alcoholic content by private
merchants also will be urged by the
board. The law provides that merch-
ants can sell wines up to Ia per cent.
but exempts sparkling and fortified
wines from those which may be sold
outside the dispensaries. The board
feels that this should be changed so
that the merchants can sell any wine
up to ID per cent.
A meeting of all wholesale beer dis
tributors operating in the county win
be held Thursday at 8 p. nj. at the
Liquor Control Board Building in
Silver Spring. The dealers win Join
lin a round-table discussion Of means
of protecting county merchants from

from Washington. Simplification of
the monthly sales reports also will be
discussed and such legislation as the
dealers feel is necessary will be re-
ceived b ythe board for study and pos

We are farmers, we are lone men
In an age of organizing.
We are robbed by packs of con men
With an ease that is surprising.
While even labor rackets
Are protected by the government
When we are helped the highest court
Soon nullifies our covenant.
We are freely willing to admit
Talk Of class legislation;
For this charge tariff too has III
For many generation.
Penny patriots collect so called
Adjusted compensation;
But the farmer is denied even
A just remuneration.
We are farmers, we are hard men
In an age of puny softies;
Whose very schemes are maudln
Though pretending to be lofty. !.
You who let the country run TO muck
If now you cannot rake it,
Stand aside and hand the tool
To someone who can take it.

Chamber Of Commerce To Make
Fight On Maryland Sales Tax
And Back Some Substitute Plan
Merchants And Business Men OF Rockville Agree That
State Taxes Should Be Raised By Methods Other
Than Present Gross Receipts Levy Prof
Walker To Lead Discussion At Dinner
Meeting Friday, January II

Rockville business men through
the efforts of the Rockville Chamber
of Commerce, will join in the fight to
eliminate the gross receipts tax as a
source of revenue for the State OF
Maryland and, at the same time, an
effort will be made to back some sub
stitute tax levy program which will
prove fair and equitable.
The Better Business Committee of
the Chamber met Monday night at the
office of The Sentinel and each men,
Der of the committee was outspoken
in attacking the present sales tax. At
the same time, it was generally
agreed that some reasonable plan
should be worked out whereby ample
revenue could be derived without be-
ing unjust to any one class OF bust
ness.
Paul Walker, professor of eco
Monies at the University of Maryland,
will speak at the dinner meeting of
the Chamber of Commerce next Fri
day evening, January IT, at the fire
house when the sales tax viii be ad-
equately discussed. Prof. Walker has
worked out a plan for bringing rev.
enue which many people believe will
prove workable substitute for the
present gross receipts tax. - !
1t is planned to have a big lobby
at Annapolis when the special session
of the Legislature meets. The bust
ness men Of the State and particular
ly those who live in counties bordering
on the large towns and cities are up
in arms against the sales tax. The at
titude of the business men of Rock
vile, as exemplified at the committee
meeting of the Chamber of Commerce,
is that some real plan to take the
place of the gross receipts tax must
be worked out before the present plan
can be discarded. AS one member of
the committee put it: eve have to
raise considerable taxes in the State
of Maryland. Federal relief will UNI
doubtedly fall through. We are oblig-
ed to conceive some equitable ar
rangement whereby ample revenue
can be obtained without hurting any
one class"

Rockville Basketers
Show Real Promise
AS Season Starts
Quint Drops Close One To
Heurich Flashes; Girls Miss
Old Veterans

The Rockville basketball teams are
well under way now that the holidays
are over. Both the girls and boys
team are boasting a few players this
year although the loss of some of the
old veterans is regretted. Paul Bru-
nett is the new manager of the boys
team and very capable one while
"Dutch" Anders still holds the job
for the girls.
All home games are played at the
High School Gym on Tuesday, Thurs4I
day, Saturday nights starting at 500
P. M. and Sunday afternoons at 200
P. M.
The Rockville boys team has played
five games to date and have won four
out of five losing only to the Heinrich
Senate Flashes 1888 in the last min
ute of play. The girls have not Jared
so well losing to Frederick twice and
Sandy Spring once. but they have
been handicapped by a late start this
season and very little practice.
The girls team has lost Margaret
Huntingdon Melton, Mildred Myers
and Louise Norris Dumbroski as they
are living out of Rockville and Mar
garet Bennett for part of the season
and maybe the whole season follow
ing an operation. This years players
are: Nellie Mae Norris, Ruth Norris,
Mabel Ankney, Mildred carp, Audrey
Anders, Ruth Hoskinson, Myrtle Dur
bin, Lucille Butt, Myrtle Hutchinson,
and Martha Ankney.
The boys team is practically the
same as last year with the exception
of the loss of "Izzy" Steinberg,
guard, who is badly missed. The line
up is: MARYLAND, Lanier, Hersberger,
Becker, George, Darby, Bennett, Stern
Durbin, and Anders.
The first four games the boys play
ed were walk overs-but the game
Sunday with the Heurich Flashes
proved to be anything but that. With
Hershey, Becker, MARYLAND, Lanier
and George on the court for the home
boys and Scheele, Latona, Howard,
Groves and D. Howard for the Flashes
it proved to be a pretty evenly match
ed game. Rockville was in the lead
the entire game with ten points ad-
vantage al the half. With about two
minutes left to play the Flashes sunk
a coup,o long shots and stepped out
in front by one basket (38-36) just as
the whistle blew for the game. Hersh-
berger and Latona were the stars of
the game at least they were the high
scorers for the two teams.
Frank McClung the high school
referee, will referee all the town boys
games this season.
The basket-ba schedule for next
week is as follows:
Saturday January 18th.
Boys: Olstead Grill $3.50.
Girls: Play at Sandy Spring.
Sunday, January 18th.
Boys: Western A. c. 800.
Girls: No game as yet.
Tuesday both games away.
Thursday, January 10th.
Boys: Dome Oil Co. $3.50.
Girls: No game as yet.
Watch the Sentinel each week for
basketball schedule. Both teams
would greatly appreciate your attend
ance at these games.

WHILE THE LEADING LAwY-

WHILE THE LEADING LAWY-
Frs and business men of every COM
munity agree or disagree with the
opinion of the Supreme Court in the
A. A. A. decision, there is one angle
which has not been touched upon.
That is the point that no law should
be permitted to become effective until
all authorities have approved.
To express such viewpoint invites
ridicule from members of the legal
profession who honor tradition and
precedent to a point which often con-
flicts with their own convictions.
We feel that, regardless of all con-
troversy as to the merits or dement's
of any particular case, the point of
foisting upon the American public any
law which, in its operation, affects the
everyday life of every citizen before
a Governmental department having a
veto power has passed upon it is
so Ridiculous as to make of us a
laughing stock before the world,
First there was the Supreme Court
decision wiping out the National Re-
covery Act (NRA) and now comes the
decision killing the AAA (Agricultur-
al Adjustment Act). Both of these
laws were put into effect and not I'M
til some little inconsequential case in
Brooklyn and some little point re-
garding the payment of the tax could
these two major governmental activ-
tiles be properly placed before the
highest tribunal.
Why, when we are contemplating
major changes in our setup, could we
not include the Supreme Court in our
government, BEFORE any law can be
made effective? In other words, when
law is passed and signed by the
President, pass it on to the infallible
court and let it render its verdict and
either kill it or let the country know
in advance that the law is LAW and
no person or corporation has any
right to appeal from its provisions.
Whether or not the AAA was good
for the American public, the fact re-
mains that tremendous and unnecces-
sary confusion result from clumsy
and foolish method.
