Beer License Dispute Aired In
Columbia By Tax Commission;
Decision Is Expected This Week

The South Carolina Tax Com
mission heard the arguments pro
and con on the State Line beer
license equabble last Thursday but
failed to take any immediate ac-
ton.
Rev. Morgan b. Gilreath, pastor
OF the Green Sea Baptist Church.
represented the petitioners of the
Green Sea area who wanted the
licenses withheld from the beer
parlor operators on the State Line
between Tabor City and Green
Sea.
The minister charged that the
applicants for licenses renewals
did not meet the standards re-
CURED of licenses under the law.
1T is dangerous in going from
Green Sea to pass through this
place. There have been many auto
wrecks: people in Tabor City are
intcrcstcd-and they feel these
places are a nuisance" said Gil
rcath in presenting his argument.
Opposing testimony came from
l.. B. Dawes, LoriS attorney, who
represented two of the applicants
for renewal of licenses, Mir. and
Mrs. A. r. Ward and Boyd Fowler.
Dawes admitted that he was fully
in sympathy with the ministers
campaign against drunkenness
crime and disorder but added this
comment:
The fact that my friend is a
crusader and a preacher does not
give him the right to dry up Green
Sea Township"
Dawes continued by stating that
the particular effort of the petit
TONERS was Il drive to make the
entire township dry.
He stated that under the exist
ing law there was no justification
for denying licenses to his clients.
unless they could be proved to
have violated the law.
Dawes and GIlrcath differed n,
TO the alleged violations of the
law WHICH liSiNi OCCtl reg along l'lJ
strip of stores" and beer parlors
but both referred the commission
erS TO court records and the tcsti-
mony of Sheriff deputies. Some
such testimony was compiled las,
week at Conway by the Tax Com
missions hearing officer. Joe l.
Allen. II will be studied by the
commissioners in reaching a de-
ciSion later this week.
Mr.. Gilrcath was accompanied
by the Rev. II. +. King. pastor oil

County. Mr.. King did not testify
