"A" Liquor Licenses
To Remain at 300;
Import Ban Refused

The Commissioners yesterday re-
jected the suggestion of the Alco-
holic Beverage Control Board that
the 300 limit on "a" liquor licenses
be raised, and Cancelled a hearing
scheduled for June Is on an ABC
Board proposal to prevent retailers
from importing liquor.
The move to reject lifting the
limitation on "a" licenses-those
for package stores-was understood
to have been made by Commissioner
Guy Mason, who recently told the
House Subcommittee on District Ap-
preparations that lifting the limit
would invite trouble and play into
the hands of prohibitionists
Limit Set in 1886.
The Commissioners set a limita-
tion of 300 on the "a" licenses in
1896, when there were 400 such Ii
censes outstanding. Through revo-
cation Of licenses the number has
been reduced to 1888. In letter to
Chairman Randolph of the House
District Committee, Chairman Alan
w. Payne of the ABC Board, said
that "the limitation, coupled with
the increased demand incident to
the growth of the population, has
resulted in rise of racket in
the transfer of such licenses"
The Commissioners recently set
June Is for hearing on the ABC
Boards proposal to prevent retailers
from importing liquor if they could
not procure the brand and amount
desired from local wholesalers. Re-
tailerS protested the plan and the
Commissioners have postponed the
hearing several times.
Release of the official file by the
Commissioners revealed that Cor
poration Counsel Richmond B.
Keech outlined objections to pre-
venting retail imports. He in
formed the Commissioners:
Would Limit Brands.
IF the amendment is adopted
the package stores, restaurants and
hotels will be able to purchase only
such beverages as the brewery DO
Gated here) and the wholesalers may
care to import. The number of
brands sold in the District would be
considerably reduced
1T has been reported that whole
salers have blacklisted and refused
to sell retailers who did not conform
to price or other standards set by
the wholesaler. At the present time,
the retailer can free himself from
the control of the wholesaler by
getting permit from the board to
purchase beverages outside the Dis
trict.
Under the proposed amendment,
the retailer would be compelled to
buy only from a District wholesaler
or manufacturer, but there is moth
ing to require the manufacturer or
wholesaler to sell to the retailer.
The effect of the proposed amend
ment upon licensed retailers would
be so serious that I believe that in
no event should it be adopted with
out public hearing"
Among Protestants.
Among those protesting against
the retail import proposal were the
National Press Club. Samuel Barker,
attorney for William Stein and Fer
dinand Ney, 945 Pennsylvania ave-
nue NV, and Larimer's Wine and
Liquor Store; Nathaniel Goldberg,
attorney for Sam Fig: Leo A. Rover.
attorney for Clark's, Inc, 705 Four
teenth street NV; the Washington
Hotel Association.
The vote of the Commissioners on
these two liquor recommendations
came late in the afternoon, after a
session with the three members of

FOUR CANNED
JUICES TO co OFF
RATION LIST

Four types of canned fruit and
vegetable juices were pointfree STRAIT
ing at 1901 A. M, Sunday, August
5, TIE OPA announced.
The sudden announcement was
made after consultations between
OPA Administrator Chester Bowles
and Secretary of Agriculture Clinton
P. Anderson. A sharp cut-back in
military requirements, which had
not been made or planned at the time
the August point value charts were
prepared, was responsible for the
drip to zero point value.
The juices that may now be bought
without the surrender of any blue
points are: canned tomato juice,
vegetable juice, grapefruit juice, and
blended grapefruit and orange juice.
The 1945-46 production of these
four types of juices is expected to
exceed pre-war levels by substan-
tial amount, it was explained, so that
the skarp reduction in Army orders
brings the total supply for civilians
back to it's pre-war normal.
The decision is in line with the ex-
pressed Government policy of remov-
ing ration controls whenever condi-
lions warrant.
