LANSING. Sci. 30-In an at
tempt TO halt bootlegging from
other states. the liquor control
commission today authorized all
saloon owners and SDDs to buy
whisky outside Michigan.
Since repeal of the prohibition
law, this order is the first relax
ing of the heretofore ireH-elad
rule that only the state govern
ment can import liquor for resale.
Under the new rule. any sa-
loonkeeper or merchant licensed
10 sell whisky by the bottle may
buy liquor in any other state if
the liquor is shipped here through
the liquor commission and a
markup of As per cent of the
actual cost is paid TO the state.
CARLOAD EN- ROUTE
At least one carload Of 7-year-
old rye whisky was en- route from
distillers shortly after the order
was signed. The order was placed
by four small class c operators
who have been unable TO supply
the demands of their customers.
One retailer said that he could
buy whisky, pay the "a per cent
state markup and still make more
money than buying from the
state.
In an explanation of this state
ment he said that case of
whisky that cost the state $1796,
the retailer purchases it from the
state at S32l6. The same whisky
can be bought by the retailer
direct for $50 a case and he must
then pay the state $3.50 markup
for placing the stamps and in
specting the product.
The total under this transaction
would cost the class c operator
$3.50, a saving of nearly 81.
HANDLING COSTS CUT
Under this sys m, another
dealer said, the state can make
money also inasmuch as handling
costs will not be heavy as the
product will only need stamping
and inspection. There should be
no hauling or storage costs, he
said.
During the many months that
liquor h as been scarce, saloon
owners have been pleading for
permission 10 buy on the market
in New York. Illinois and other
open states.
Until today. Gov. Kelly has OPP
posed a change in procedure be-
cause he believed that bootlegging
would be more extensive if the
bars were lowered.
The commission doesn't believe
many licensees will take advan-
tage of the new rule, inaSmuch as
they will be compelled 10 buy at
retail and pay 10 the state a
markup Of IS per cent. This
process won't leave much profit,
Commissioners Flynn and Fry
contended.
