OfLiquor Seenby D. G. Dealers

600 listed an inventory OF $48, 600,
estimated value OF o new lease at
$25 900 and added a $4,000 item
for goodwill and license"
The liquor boom was a wartime
phenomenon. however, In the opin-
ion OF a spokesman for the firm
which advertised the Decent
whiskey.
Recalling that business was lifted
from the doldrums In 1910 and 1941
by the high prices prevailing dur
ing the war, when relatively little
cut-throat competition between
dealers took place, he said he ex-
pected considerable decline In
profits now that liquor is becoming
more plentiful.
Already, he pointed out, his store
was refusing shipments of some
brands Of liquor, in contrast to the
days OF wartime scarcity. when any
brand was accepted. Other stores
here are doing the same, he declared
When liquor supplies revert te
normal, he predicted, merchants will
no longer be able to apply the 331s
per cent price markup prevalent
during the war.
Several other class A dealers
questioned yesterday painted q
similar picture of conditions here
They said local packaged liquor dis
pensers would soon be hard pressed
by the competition of State-operated
stores in nearby Virginia and Mont
gomery County, Md.
An ABC Board inspector, while
expressing the view that the liquor
business here is still profitable one
said he agreed that the extreme
profits made during the war were on
their way out. He estimated that
the value Of class A license in one
OF the larger stores, had declined
from a maximum of about $50 900 to
approximately $40 900 TODAY

Wnen q local llQuOr retainer re-
Gently advertised NTH Of whisky
for 90 cents and . NTH OF wine for
8 cents, the advertising lure was an
indication that the unprecedented
wartime boom in the liquor business
here was nearing an end.
So profitable did the business be-
come during the war that class A
retail establishment, authorized to
make package sales, exchanged
hands for as high as $160, 900 only
few months ago, 1t was revealed
yesterday by Mrs. Agnes K. Mason,
q member of the Alcohol Beverage
Control Board.
Although liquor profits may be on
the decline, ABC Board spokesmen
estimate the peak value OF the class
A license alone-aside from the value
of the equipment and stock involved
in the property-until recently was
about 6O,O00. Yet dealers pay the
board only $3.50 for such licenses.
The reason for this disparity, Mrs.
Mason pointed out, is that a 1886
regulation limits the Districts class
A licenses to 800. Since there were
already 400 such licenses granted
prior to the regulation. Of which 1888
are still in effect, no new licenses
can be granted until the total Is
reduced below 800 by revocations and
voluntary Withdrawals from business.
No one can open a class A es-
tablishment here. therefore, except
by purchase of an existing store
and transfer of the license. The
scarcity value OF the dispensing
right initiates prices out Of all pro-
portion to the nominal worth Of
the license. she said.
Such markups are usually writ

disclosed. In one recent sale a
