ders and say that because one sore
has been removed the infection is
gone?
We know that whiskey is being
sold throughout the county, with the
county seat being its worst offender.
We feel the only honest and right APP
proach to this problem is to put the
question squarely before the voters
and taxpayers in the county. Let them
vote on the whiskey question. Bring
whiskey into the county for period
of two years on probation if needs be.
Let us see then whether it is bene-
fetal or detrimental to the well-be-
ing of the county.
The "Drys" have been preaching
it down for years. "Wets" have been
whispering about it for the same
length of time. If it will satisfy the
"Drys" let's put the entire liquor ques-
ton, beer and whiskey both, on the
block before the voters OF the county.
If they want it dry let's dry it up. If
the "Wets" want it wet let's have it
legal. Let our Sheriff and States At
torney do their duties in relation to
the rest of the county.

Wants Whiskey Put
Before County Voters

To the Editor and the People of
Garrett County:
For the past month we have had
to sit quietly by and see our names
dragged through the courts and the
county papers without having one
word said in our defense. We feel the
time has come to give part Of our side
to the controversy as to whether JUS
tice was done in regard to our fines
and the suspension of our beer license.
We have problem too, and a very
grave one, none of the accused and
convicted persons are criminals either
by intent or purpose. We are all
worthy and respectable citizens of
this community. Our businesses in
VolVe many and varied means of pro-
motion and handling. Our investments
in this county are great and substan-
tial. AS taxpayers we carry our fair
share of the load.
If the weather is with us, we have
on an average of twelve weeks in
which to make our living and insure
our investments. We feel we are
closer here ON the lake to the needs
and wants of our visitors than anyone
even twelve miles away. We know
these people who return again and
again to this section, they first came
because it is a vacation spot, but they
return again because of the hospitality
extended to them on their first visit
Do the voters Of this county realize
the amount of business brought into
this section because of Deep Greek
Lake? The average cottage owner
spends in the neighborhood of $1,000
each summer. There are more than
2200 cottages, each owner paying
taxes into the county, without one
small voice in either the administra-
ton Of their money or the govern
ment Of the county.
We know these people, they want
to be happy here and they want to be
u part OF a fair and honest community,
run by conscientious and honest Off
cials working in the best interests
of all concerned. We do not say that
legalized whiskey in this county would
be the answer to all the ills it now
suffers What we do say is this, since
we were fined for the selling of whis-
key, someone must have wanted it
badly enough to buy it. If our officials
want to be honest in the execution of
their respective duties, why is it not
unlawful to sell whiskey at other
points in the county? Is Deep Creek
Lake and few stops on Route 40
the only places now recognized as
Garrett County?
We have been the goat, our profits
for an entire season have been taken
from us in fines and loss of business.
Now our means of making a living
too has been taken away for a period
of -four months What will that ac-
complish as long as one place in the
county is free to sell whiskey lille
gally? Have our authorities done their
duty? Must the people of Garrett
County sit idly by, shrug their Shout

divorces, juvenile delinquency, sorrow
and sickness and suffering. Mothers
and wives weep, children go hungry,
and are afraid to play because of
drunken dads. Government is cor
rupted. politics smell, and the fair
folds of Old Glory are stained black

is making some men rich off the de-

men.

mitted to be sold over the counter at
$500 per fifth. What if T.B., typhoid,
polio, or cancer germs were to be
bottled up and sold in America? What
howl would arise from the right
eously indignant. But we have a half
million alcoholics suffering death al
most and not too many open their
mouths against it. All have to say
is that any person who will support
this evil by vote, or in any other way,
is as spineless as a jellyfish.

Statistics Speak
In Massachusetts

Some interesting statistics from re-
cepts and expenditures in the State
of Massachusetts in 1913 make good
reading at this time The statistics
speak for themselves.
The state in 1913 received $13, 139-
26279 from alcoholci beverage taxa
ton.
The tax revenue received by Massa-
chusetts from alcoholic beverages in
1943 paid for only 1922 percent of
the social and industrial loss occa-
stoned by the use of intoXicants. A
study authorized by the General Court
Of Massachusetts was concluded un-
de- the Craftsmanship of judge there,
in 1915.
The commission reported that
Massachusetts sustained total loss
of more than 107 million dollars in
1943 due to alcohol-caused accidents,
absenteeism, loss of labor from pre-
mature deaths, human depreciation
because of alcoholism and the pro-
portionate cost of state penal and
mental institutions which could be
fairly attributed to the use Of alcohol
as a beverage.
On the basis of the full report it
was indicated that every dollar of the
revenue from alcohol cost the taXpay-
ers at least eight dollars.
These figures were obtained from
a quarterly of study and discussion
entitled Learning for Life, for July,
August and September.

The various arguments over
whiskey are bringing up the adj
visibility of having an election
to determine whether or not a
majority Of people want both
whiskey and beer sold legally in
the county.
Those who are thus speaking
do not realize the hornets nest
into which they are poking.
The majority Of Garrett county's
citizens, once they get aroused
on a question like that, might

alcoholic beverage question.
We have a sneaking suspicion
that those who are satisfied
with having beer realize that
Loint, and would never favor any
referendum on the question.
Elsewhere in The Republican

results Of having legalized sale
OF whiskey in Massachusetts,
statistics that speak for them
selves.
Elsewhere also is letter in
defense of the actions of four
of those who pleaded guilty to

They object to having their
names dragged through the
courts and the county papers
