Here's the Answer:
Why Should Bad Weather
Close All Our Schools?

hating the complex machinery
necessary TO open schools, any
decision 10 keep schools closed
must be made by Z am. Under
such circumstances. all radio
stations are notified Immediately.
If crucial roads are too muddy
or icy in any part Of the county
at that time, Rcam explained,
schools must be kept closed in
all parts Of the county.
lie said this "all or nothing
policy Is made necessary by two
factors: the extreme difficulty
that would be involved in inform
ing some 5000 employees which
schools are open and which are
not; and the fact that teachers,
administrators and custodians
do not necessarily live in the area
in which they teach.
If the closing policy were not
uniform, for example, some
schools might open only to find

Some parents have questioned
the policy because In both in

that whatever decision il made,

NeU Liquor
LulUs Are
Being Urged
BY a Staff Reporter

County liquor laws were in
the legislative spotlight this
week as interested forces
jockeyed for the post position
at Annapolis.
Principal development was an
announcement by Delegate Alger
Y. Barbee that he wants to intro
duce legislation which would
permit pouring licenses to be
issued to fraternal and veterans
groups and to hotels of 100 or
more rooms.
His proposal met with imme.
date resistance from several
civic and governmental leaders
and from restaurant and tavern
owners.
Meanwhile, County Manager
Melvin l.. Reese told the County
Council yesterday he hopes to
draft legislation which would
plug a loophole in the present
laws by making bottle clubs IL
legal.
Bottle clubs now are Oper.
ated by few veterans and
fraternal groups, and there is
no law specifically banning
them.
The County Licensed Beverage
Association, comprising all
taverns and restaurants now
licensed to serve beer and wine,
repeatedly was considering draw
ing up its own bill as a counter
move to Barbee's proposal.
The Association is opposed to
the granting of any pouring
licenses (which permit the serv-
ing of hard liquor by the drink
unless its members are granted
the same privilege.
Barbee is a member of the
Alcoholic Beverages Committee
of the State Assembly, which
must pass on all bills dealing
with liquor control.
Barbee said he proposed to tie
in his liquor measure with
abolition of the present tax on
business and manufacturing in
ventories in the county.
Opposition to his proposal was
voiced by Mrs. Stella B. Werner,
President of the County Council,
and by representatives of the
Rockville Ministerial Association.
Under a 1888 provision, the
only pouring licenses in the
county are at Olney Inn, Old
Anglers Inn and Normandy
Farm.
A fourth restaurant, Shady
Grove Country Club, serves
liquor by the drink under pro-
vision that allows country clubs
to sell drinks to all corners.

These are the clergy and the
traditional 'drys" who, not sur
prisingly clamor for legislation
that would be even more restric-
tive.
II don't feel too sorry for
anyone who can't get drink
here" one minister remarked
recently. "And / certainly
wouldn't favor any Iiberaliza.
ton of the laws. If anything,
the ones we have should be
frightened"
Like religion and politics, our
liquor laws arouse endless de-
bate that rarely sways anyone
from his established views.
At the other end of the spec
trum from the clergy are the
tavern and restaurant owners,
who despise the laws as dis
criminatory, unfair, and say
some, possibly even unconstitu-
tional.
Closer to the attitude of the
clergy is that of law enforce
ment officers. They insist that
any liberalization would lead to
severe police headaches.
Most observers will concede
that the present laws are "snob-
bish," since they allow liquor to
be served by the drink only at
country clubs and three fashion
able restaurants.
Most would agree, too, with
the public officials who private
ly describe the laws as 'incOn-
sistent," "wacky" and "ridicu-
lOus."
The free-for-all arises over the
question of what, if anything,
should be done about it
County Police Superintendent
James S. McAuliffe leaves no
doubt of his position. Logical or
not, he says fatty, the laws have
given us a clean county.
We're content with the pre-.
sent statutes" he stated. They
keep out the night clubs and the
roadhouses that are always the
trouble spots"
A State police officer echoed
McAuliffe's remarks, warning
that the free flow of liquor in
variably leads to more assault
cases and drunk driving acct
dents than does beer and wine
drinking.
The forces for liberalization
are numerous. But they also are
diversified, and as often as not
fight among themselves over
what specific changes should be
made.
Tavern owners, for example,
quite naturally object to any
plan (such as that in effect in
the District permitting pouring
licenses for establishments in
which food sales constitute
major share of daily receipts.
