Liquor Board
i Jay Borrow -To
StocI:Up
Indication that the state liquor
control commission has in mind
the borrowing of a large amount
of money with which to make ad
vance payment on future liquor
deliveries and thereby protect it
self against a serious liquor short
age, was contained in. an opinion
by Attorney General' L .H. Van
Winkle -here Thursday.
The opinion was requested, by
Secretary of State Robert S. Far
tell, jr. :.:-77 ;:.v:KUi:V;.
' Van Winkle held that under the
Oregon statutes the liquor control
commission has authority to bor
row money but not as .a general
obligation against the state. Funds
borrowed by the commission
would be repaid out of liquor sales
receipts. '
The Oregon constitution pro
vides that the state shall not incur
debt in excess of $50,000 unless
approved by the voters. JThe opin
ion mentioned a loan of $3,000,000
or $4,000,000." ;
. The attorney general further
held that Farrell has authority- to
. audit and issue warrants in pay
ment of claims arising from the
- purchase by the liquor control
commission of alcoholic liquors for
'future delivery.
