and Jerome Mckee of the District
Liquor Dealers Association, con-
tended Washington already has
more liquor stores for every 10000
people than most cities. Ray G

no reason why there should be a
limit on the number of liquor
stores while no other business had
such limitations.
Another proposed change in loca
ABC board regulations. which is due
to come up before the board Mon
day morning along with the limita-
ton issue, was opposed by the fed
