Something's
Expected in
Liquor Law

The winds of change are
ripping the pages of the Dis
trict's 24-year-old law control
ling the sale of alcoholic bev-
erages.
Next week a House District
subcommittee will go into ex-
ecutive session to try to work
up a new revision of the law
from a 66-page bill, written by
Representative Multer, Demo-
crat of New York.
In hearings last week and
this the bill has been both APP
plauded and criticized by a
variety of witnesses. But the
only area of agreement seems
to be that it's time to change
the law.
The District Commissioners
called the Multer bill "the first
comprehensive effort to revise
the Alcoholic Beverage Control
Act" Some changes, they said,
do Improve" it. But the sum
total of the BILL" the Commits
Sioners added, lis detrimental
to the public at large and to
various segments of the alco-
holic beverage industry ITSELF"
Some Bill Likely
But it is likely Mr.. Multer
will succeed in getting some
bill out of his subcommittee,
even if he is forced into writing
another draft.
He is determined to prohibit
price advertising in the liquor
industry and to set a floor on
liquor prices. In past years, he
has made several attempts to
prevent price cutting by retail
liquor dealers.
Meanwhile, the District Com
missionerS moved to set up a
study of the law. Yesterday,
Commissioner John B. Duncan
appointed a citizens advisory
committee to begin an examin-
alton of the law and the poll
eieS of the ABC Board.
Mrs. Henry Gichner, civic
worker, was named to head the
l2-member group.
Another Bill
Still awaiting action of the
Senate District Committee is a
bill to permit stand-up drink
ing.
This bill. written by Repre-
sentative st. German, Demo-
crat of Rhode Island, passed
the House last year. Hearings
have been completed on the
Senate side.
The provision is also con-
tanned in the Multer bill.
Yesterday, Mr.. Multer at
tempted to take the Washing
ton Publishers Association over
the Goals because of it's stand
against the bill.
Newspapers Hit
He also claimed the city'sI
three daily newspapers per-
mitted misleading liquor ad-
vertisements.
Gerald w. Siegel, vice presi-
dent of the Washington Post,
speaking for the association,
denied the charge and told Mr..
Multer, chairman of the sub
committee handling his bill,
that newspapers reject false
advertising.
Mr.. Multer Immediately asked
for a list of rejected advertise
n1entS.
Hearings continue Tuesday
at 10 am.

rare display Of party regular

The Democratic strategy has
been to create a new image Of
Mr.. Kitchin as one the district
needs to have in Washington
during the Kennedy admins
tration.
This strategy is reflected In
the billboard advertising scat
tered around the countryside
Those for the Republican can
didate say: Keep Jonas ir

cratic signs, on the other hand
exhort, "Re-elect Kitchin-vote

Voters here are not likely to
be fooled. They regard both
Mr.. Jonas and Mr.. Kitchin as
equally conservative-as their
records indicate.
Changing Political Pattern
Both have zero ratings by
Americans for Democratic Ac-
ton and by organized labor's
political arm on key votes in
the 87th Congress. Mr.. Kitchin
has a rating of so and Mr.
Jonas 80 in the evaluation OF
the conservative Americans for
Constitutional Action.

This accounts in part for the
curious nature Of a campaign
which finds the United Nations
bond proposal an issue. How
ever, one discovers that this is
not as far-fetched as it would
seem for two reasons.
Charlotte is the home of
Mrs. Charles w. Tillett, who
has been a delegate to the
u. N. General Assembly. She
has aroused an uncommon
a m cunt of support among
women here for the U. NJ.
and the women's vote in this
country is something to be
reckoned with. With his Gus
tomary stand against the adj
ministration, Mr.. Jonas voted
against the bond issue. In a

bearing on the outcome Of this
race. One is the influx Of
young people into both the

longer a nasty word, here, "

The other, and perhaps more
important factor. Is the in
creasing political activity Of
Negroes.
Under new leadership the
Negroes are forsaking their fic-
tional home in the Republican
Party and are working here
with the regular Democratic

In the hands OF q youIlse
breed of politicians, has pro-
duced candidates in all except
three of North Cardinals IL
congressional districts. 1t also
has had the audacity to chal-
lenge storytelling Democratic
Senator Sam Erwin in his bid
for reelection.
Senator Erwin, IS, is not ex-
pected to have any difficulty
| in winning over Charles l..
Greene, jr., a political I'M
known. But it could be a diff
| ferent story in two or maybe
four Of the congressional dis
tricts.
These are the 9th, 9th, 10th
and 18th. They stretch from
the lower Piedmont area to the
mountainous counties in the
Western part of the state.
In the 9Th, particularly, the
lines are sharply drawn. But
here, as in other districts, the
outcome has been clouded by
the redistricting surgery per-
formed by Gov. Terry Sanford
and his state house crowd. His
Ihandiwork has produced a jig
saw realignment of districts
which North Carolinians refer
to as the Terry monster"
Redistricting Trickery
On the face of it the redis-
tricting plan pushed through
the Democratic controlled 1861
legislature seemed aimed at Mr..
Jonas, the States lone Repub-
lican in Congress. But one
finds here, whether true or not,
a more subtle and cynical ex-
PLANTATION.
It is that Gov. Sanford, a
supporter of President Ken
needy, arranged matters in such
a way as to relieve the ma
tional administration of q con-
sentative thorn in its side no
matter which way the voting
goes.
The result was pleasing nei-
ther to Mr.. Jonas nor Mr..
Kitchin. 1t took from Mr..
Jonas two counties in which he
normally ran strong and gave
him six counties in which
there are few Republican votes.
In some of them there is not
even a semblance Of a Repub-
lican organization.
In Arson County, for ex-
ample, there are only 251 reg
istered Republicans. In the last
off-year election in 1858 An
son cast 1858 Democratic votes
to only 112 Republican. In two
other counties, Richmond and
Union, the voting was similarly
lopSidedly Democratic.
In his redistricting zeal Gov.
Sanford did Mr.. Kitchin no
favor by including Mechlen-
burg (Charlotte) and adjoining
Lincoln County among the eight
in the new district.
Charlotte has provided Mr..
Jonas, whose home is in Lin
colnton, in the adjoining
county, with the margin Of
votes which has sent him to
Congress five times in a row.
Popular Mr.. Jonas
Mr.. Jonas is popular among
both Democrats and Repub-
licans here. And Mr.. Kitchin,
a Wadesboro attorney and
member of a family long active
in North Carolina politics, may
find this difficult to overcome.
In a district which counts
more than 10000 registered
Democrats to more than $4,000
Republicans, Mech lie burg
County has more than half the
population and half the votes.

Mr.. Jonas. Those who said they
would vote for Mr.. Kitchin de-
scribed themselves as traditio1-

CHARLOTTE. N. c., Oct. Il
in North Carolina's new 8tl
District, one of the main Is
sues in a hotly-contested con.
eressional race is the United
Nations bond issue, strange az
it may seem.
This is more than e tribute
to the international concern OF
Tarheel voters. 1t reflects the
greatness of politics in general
and North Cardinals in par
ticular-where there is a singu-
lar lack of issues among the
aspiring candidates.
A tricky bit of redistricting
Cthe State lost a House seat)
has brought face to face IN
the 9Th District two conserva-
tives whose political philosophy
and voting records are so much
alike that a North Carolina
wag remarked, You need a
label, not a score card, to tell
'em apart"
One is Republican Represen-
tative Charles Raper Jonas, So
who has served 10 years In
Congress from a normally
Democratic district. The other
is Democratic Representative
A. Paul Kitchin, So, who Is
seeking his fourth consecutive
term.
The U. N. matter is one of
the few things on which they
have voted differently. Hence
it is at issue in the campaign
year.
Resurging Republican Drive
The race in this gerrymand-
cred district represents a crit
ical part of the Republican
effort in this off-year election
to hold on to what it has and
win new seats in Congress. es-
