COMMITTEE SETS
LIQUOR HEARINGS
Proponents Of Penny Bill
Will Be Heard March 4.
.Anti's Next Dav

RALEIGH, Feb. 1a- P-The
General Assembly's joint finance
committee toosy announced that
pubic hearings on a liquor ~referen-
dunn bill offered by Sen. George
T. Penny of Guilford will begin
with proponents of the measure be-
ing heard on March 4. Opponents
will be heard the following day.
The committee, meeting briefly
today, originally was scheduled for
vote action on two proposals: A
Sl00 license tax levy or retail flor
lists and a reduction in chain-store
taxes.
This action was precluded be-
cause of a lengthy and heated hear
ing by the House committee on
manufacturing and labor on a pro-
posal to ban the closed shop. Many
members of the joint finance COM
mittee attended the labor hearing.
The joint finance committee to-
day heard a proposal by the State
Department of agriculture to have
funds collected by the state for Ii
cense tax on ice-cream dealers to
be turned " to the Agriculture
department to aid in ice-cream in.
spections.
$38, 900 Annually
This amount totals about $38, 900
annually, the committee was told
by w. Kerr Scott, agriculture com
missioner, and D. S. Coltrane, as
sistant agriculture commissioner.
They asserted that they did not
think it fair for the department to
shoulder complete financial respon-
sibility for the inspections.
However, members of the COM
mittee suggested that this request
should be made to the joint appro-
priations committee, since, they
said, it was a question of appro-
priations and not of collection.
The committee also received four
tax amendments to the revenue
bill. The measures deal with gross
premiums of insurance companies,
chain-store taxes, gift taxes, and
the exemption of the sales tax on
fuel used by tobacco farmers in
curing leaf.
Ready Next Month
These measures are scheduled
for consideration at meetings later
this week and next.
1t is expected that the joint fl
nance committee will have its rev
enue bill ready for presentation to
the legislature early next month.

a peace loving America that this

never be departed from, and that
the storms of partisan strife may
never again darken or obscure
American foreign policy" Wyche
said.

 Since he is recognized expert in foreign affairs with experience including the U.

 But we do not see how any informed person cha- enge his finding that the Chinese is in des perate need of help quickly. Current reports Com munist gains in Manchuria confirm the urgency.
