~ liquor board to set up county
operated liquor stores where a
need is determined, except that
the board could not establish a
county store in a community
where no liquor outlet existed
previously without approval OF
the residents of that community
in a referendum.
To meet the criticism that his
proposed dispensaries would be
in unfair competition with the
Iprivate stores, he said he will
require that the dispensaries
must charge the same fair trade
prices as private outlets.
Senator Wheatley told the
league it is not his intention
to eliminate restaurants where
people can have a drink with
their meals, "but we should estab-
fish some standards and get rid
iof the honky tonks."
! Tempted in Sales
Since the county now allows
Sunday sale of beer and light
wine, the senator said, many
places keep bars open on Sunday
land the temptation to sell
liquor is too great for some of
our people"
Delegate Machen told the
league the delegation is 100 pei
cent in accord on tightening UP

He also said that, if the
Wheatley liquor bills get through
the Senate with proper safe
guards. / can assure you there
will be no difficulty in putting
them through the House, so far
as the delegation is concerned.
Prior to this apparent state
ment of support from Mr.
Machen. the Wheatley bills had
been backed in the six-member
Prince Georges House bloc only
by Delegate Carlton r. Sickles,
who said he was behind the
senator 100 per cent"

Usually the tax rate has been

look favorably on a program OF

it was presented to him prior to

would be carried out-although
State law prohibits the mixing
of the races in public schools.
Judge Hoffman offered the

The General Assembly at its
