Lobbying- Charged
(Establishments not licensed by
the liquor control commission op
erate in some places under local
ordinances, but legally cannot
serve liquor.)
In arguing for the minority re
port, Rp. John Hall of Portland
said th bill had been the object
of "theimost intensive lobbying"
in many years. He added he di
not approve of "tactics' used "b;
certain members of the staff of
the Oregon liquor control commis
sion, and said the administrator
and other staff members had been
in Salem for a week "at the ex
pense of the state of Oregon and
the old people.
Hall said, too, that he did not
agree with statements that failure
to pass SB 117 would ruin the
Knox law. and declared that "the
courts have repeatedly refused to loans.
sanction seizures such as this bill
provides." He said the property
of parties with no part in viola'
tions could be seized under the
majority recommendation," and
"at the whim and caprice" of en
forcement officers, and added that
the law would not "stand the test
of constitutionality."
Enforcement Needed
Signers of the: majority report
declared the liquor commission
had asked for the bills in the in
terests of better law enforcement,
and that if such an end could be
gained the amendment as propos
ed was warranted.
Rep. Stanhope Pier, of Portland,
said passage of the majority re
port would leave the liquor com
mission "with no excuse" for lack
of proper enforcement
Rep. John Steelhammer, Salem,
criticized the liquor commission
for rescinding an old regulation
which forbade ex-employes from
representing a distillery for ;two
years after his commission job ter
minated. He referred to John
Holden, ex-stores supervisor now
employed as a distiller's represen
tative. Steelhammer also said he
still was trying to pry from! the
senate the house-approved bill
permitting appeals from decisions
of the liquor control commission.
Two other liquor measures. ?lso
with divergent "do pa'ss" reports,
will come up as a special order of
business in the house at 2:15 today.
FEE RETENTION BOOSTED

favorably on a bill by Rep. Frank

products returned to the bakers
from the shelves of the retailers,'
