Hearing Held
On Beer Bill
AT Annapolis
Montgomery Delegation In
Favor Of Proposed Meas
ure. Opposition Voiced BY
Distributors


Appearing before the Ways and
Means Committee at Annapolis,
Thursday, March 6, proponents and
opponents of the proposed legisla-
ton that the wholesale distribution
of beer in Montgomery County be
limited by law to the County Dis
pensary System, spent approxim-
!ately two hours in debate.
Presided over by Delegate John
F. White of Prince Georges Coun-
|ty, Democratic floor leader of the
House and chairman of the Ways
and Means Committee, the hearing
was on House Bill 371, which would
exempt Montgomery County from
the Statewide Beer Wholesalers
Act and provide that mo holder of
Ia beer wholesalers license may
sell or deliver beer in Montgomery
County except to county dispen-
|sary."
Speaking in support of the bill
were Delegates James w. Gill,
Ruth Shoemaker, Stanton c. Peele,
Jr., and E. Brooke Lee, who joint
lily introduced the bill.
Mr.. Gill decried the fact that un-
true and false advertising had been
misleading concerning the county
dispensary system. He also said
that out of several hundred active
civic organizations only two had
voiced opposition to the bill; name
ly the Bethesda Chamber Of Com
merce and the Norbeck .Olney
Citizens Association.
Speaking in opposition to the
measure William w. Evans, attor-
Iney, stated that profit was not
made last year by the County Dis
pensary but Alexander Hancock,
County Auditor produced figures
showing a $4,000 net cash profit
plus $46jO0000 in additional stock
and inventory purchased and on
hand.
Delegate E. Brooke Lee pointed
out that during the seven years of
operation the County Dispensary
system had earned a net profit Of
$4,000 for the county and that
revenue from the measure would
help in the construction and main
tenance of additional roads and
streets.
1t was also pointed out that four
CT the five delegates to Annapolis
together with State Senator Robert
Peter were supporting the bill.
James H. Pugh, attorney, repre-
senting Eugene Raney, wholesale
beer distributor, spoke in opposi-
ton to the bill as did J. Harry
WEIGH, Bethesda, who appeared in
behalf of Joe Harris, beer distribu-
tor. Others who voiced disapprov-
al were Clarence H. Small, Lay
louisville, who claimed he did not
like to see government in business;
Gordon Stup, Mrs. Geneva Hen
bricks, Potomac, and Mrs. Lamar
Oyster, Chevy Chase.
No indication was made by the
committee whether or not it would
make favorable report.
