In a legal business, and its more

Alcoholic Beverage Control Board,
and az the Congress.
An objective appraisal Of the
problem, free of preconceived no.
tions and guided alone by a search
for the genuine facts, is called for
in order to arrive at an accurate as
well as practical view of the prob
lem. An inventory of the local situ-
alton also must of necessity take
into account not only the physical
conditions surrounding the distri-
button and sale of alcoholic bever-
ages but the manifold community
and sociological aspects concerned.
The liquor control setup in Wash
ington today is pursuant to the pro-
visions of and regulations promul-
gated under the District Alcoholic
Beverage Control Act which was
approved January "a, 1884. Various
amendments have been added since
then. In brief, the law provides for
the control of the manufacture,
transportation, possession and sale
of alcoholic beverages under the
private license system as distin-
guished from a system of State
monopoly in the sale of liquor and
wine. The law is administered by
a three-member board, the Alcoholic
Beverage Control Board, under the
supervision of the District Commis-
SionerS.
- 1900 Licensees Here.
The liquor industry here COM
prises, on the average, about 1900
licensees and includes manufac-
turers, wholesalers and retailers.
Under the District system, sale of
packaged liquor is permitted both in
exclusive and in combination stores.
Sale by the drink also is permitted,
including such sales of beer and
light wine on Sunday from am.
until midnight. The particular
system in operation here makes the
District, in the parlance of the
liquor trade, an open market area.
The law was designed to be and,
wisely or unwisely, is, very lib
eral alcoholic beverage control
statute.
In discussing the alcoholic bev-
erage control situation mere it is
necessary to point out that the
conditions prevailing in Washington
have more than local import. The
twofold aspect. i. e., local and ma
tional, arises from the position
which the District occupies as the
Nations Capital. Conversely, the
duality of the District situation SUBJ
jects the local liquor situation at
once to this double-barreled scru-
tiny. If the conditions surrounding
the distribution and sale of alco-
holic beverages are good or pad
here they are represented at the
same time nationally as either q
paragon of perfection or a horrible
example.
Members of Congress hear from
the folks back home" on liquor con-
ditions in the National Capital,
whereas ordinarily the average cit
izen of one State does not concern
himself with the liquor conditions
prevailing in another State. It is
of interest to recall that Represent
ative U. s. Guyer of Kansas in
troduced his usual bill proposing a
bone-dry District Of Columbia in the
first session of the current (76th)
session of Congress. There is also
talk periodically of remaking a
dry" Washington as a national ex-
ample. The current discussion
locally, therefore, has its national
