Attempts 10 Prevent
Liquor StoekpiIing by
Dealers Hits Snaq

Attempts Of District authorities
to prevent liquor dealers from
stockpiling large supplies Of
liquor In an effort TO avoid pay
ing increased alcoholic taxes on
August l have run into a snag.
A wholesale liquor concern here.
Forman Bros. Inc. yesterday aft
ernoon brought a suit in District
Court seeking to force District
Tax Collector Guy Pearson to sell
whatever liquor tax stamps the
company wants.
The price of the tax stamps
on liquor will go up so per cent
on August /. while the tax stamps
on beer will jump 100 per
cent. To avoid stockpiling Mr..
Pearson has been selling only
normal amounts to liquor
wholesalers.
Provision i'm Bill.
The recently passed District
revenue bill provides that any
stocks on the dealers shelves with
the old-rate stamps affixed are
exempt the tax increase.
Mr.. 4earson said he was to
meet today with members of the
Alcoholic Beverage Control Board
and Corporation Counsel Vernon
E. West to discuss the advisable
ity Of asking for an amendment to
the revenue bill. which would tax
the liquor inventory on August l.
In deciding to sell only normaf
amounts of tax stamps, Mr.. Pear
son said he is computing the
norm on the basis of dealers
liquor sales for the first six months
last year and for a comparable
period this year.
Says Business Impeded.
The suit filed by the Forman
Bros. concern said its business Is
being impeded. and that 1t needs
additional stamps now.
The suit said the corporation
presented q certified check for
$25, 900 for stamps on June 6 and
another check for $S,725 on June
IS. but that authorities refused
to sell the stamps at that time.
The suit named as defendant
Mr.. Pearson and the District
Commissioners. The corporation
is represented by Attorneys John
r. Fitzpatrick and Edward j.
Lynch.

Gently launched a condensed in

or bop" at Its friends refer to
it.
Bop, If we can get familiar but
not friendly, is a musical craze
which has swept. or at least
brushed. the country these last
couple of years. 1t sounds like q
lot of other kinds of music-only
louder, maybe, and stranger.
But what makes a song "bop?"
Let's listen to George Duffy.
maestro at the Embassy Room Of
the Statler. .
"Be-bop requires lot Of imag-
nation" says George.
1t certainly seems to.
"Be-bop is modern interpola-
ton Of odd chord changes" he
continues.
Odd. We've got that.
"Be-bop requires a certain
amount Of execution"
1t certainly does. Something in
the nature Of a mercy killing,
maybe?

haps, more assstudent Of the SUBJ

rant audience doesn't let him put
theory into practice when itSeomes
