Liquor History Told
After20 Years Control
December marks Oregon's i became operative no control
20th anniversary as a monopo- law exiated, and local govern-
ly liquor control state, and the ing bodies of their own volition
20th year since national prnhi
bition was repealed. Since Gov
ernor Julius Meier signed the
Oregon liquor control act De
cember 15, 1833, and $107,08
was invested in original work
ing capital, the Oregon liquor
control commission has engag
ed in retail, tax collection and
licensing activitiea which have
resulted in distribution of more
than f 124 million in net reve
nue to cities, counties, the gen
eral fund and other public coffers.
Despite the impressive mil
lion dollars monthly now being
distributed to the general fund
and to localities, revenue is sec
ondary to the principal pur
pose of the original "Knox
law," which emphasizes control
and promotion of temperance
in tne use or alcoholic bever
ages. Major control is exercised
through licensing, now more
restrictive than in the early
days of the commission. Since
June 30, 1034, when there
were 609S retail licenses, or
6.30 licenses per thousand per
sons, the number of retail li
censes has declined to S725 in
euect November l, 1933, or
3.76 licenses per thousand po
pulation,
Consumption per capita of
distilled spirits has fluctuated.
Distilled Spirits Institute com
putea Oregon's per capital con
sumption at .j4 gallons in 1934
(calendar year): 1.07 gallons
in 1940. 1.77 gallons In 1945;
1.28 gallons in 1950, and 1.27
Callons in 1952.
Since passage of the Oregon
liquor control act, often called
the Knox lnw, the original en
actment has tomained much the
same, with only minor amend
ments. Dr. William Knox re
commended and the legislature
adopted the system of "mono
poly control," which pertains to
the fact that the state has the
exclusive right to wholesale
distilled spirits. Liquor by the
drink legislation, which be
came effective after popular
vote and the subsequent dis
tilled liquor control act, does
not affect Oregon's status as a
monopoly control state, as the
commission still is the only
source from which bottled li
quor may be purchased by in
dividuals or dispenser licen
sees. A tew private clubs have
master locker privileges allow
ing aaleof bottled liquor to
members only, but this must
be consumed on the club pre
mises.
Despite a 17 per cent drop In
the gallons of liquor purchases
since the peak aales year of
1947, yearly dollar volume of
net aales has not declined in
proportion, this being attribut
ed to the fact that the OLCC
markup is taken on a higher
cost of goods. For the year end'
ing June SO. 1947, Oregoniana
spent $42,995,694 for 1.057,073
cases of distilled spirits and
higher content wines, repre
senting actual gallonage of 2,
592,752 gallons. For the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1953, gal
lonage had declined 17 per cent
but dollar volume was nearly
the same, with $42,905,714 be
ing spent for 831,645 cases
equalling 2,147,204 gallons.
Cases represent both cases of
fifths and pints. To the con
sumer, the price has been fur
ther elevated because of boosts
Issued many licenses allowing
service of alcoholic beverages
before the commission began
licensing operations in March,
1934. There were 1961 lieenaes
issued by the City of Portland
during the interim. The law
now allows only the commis
sion to grapt, refuse, suspend
or cancel licenses to serve, sell
or manufacture alcoholic bev
erages; however, the commis
sion generally insists that each
application bear the endorse
ment of the applicant's local
governing body. This is not
mandatory, aa the law states:
The commission may re.
quire of every applicant for a
license the recommendation in
writing of the county court in
the event the place of business
of the applicant is outside an
incorporated city, and of the
city council if the place of bus!
ness of the applicant is within
an Incorporated city, and the
commission may take such re
commendation into considera
tion before granting or refus
ing such license."
The policy of requiring local
endorsement is one which the
commission haa adhered to as
the opinion of the local govern.
ing body helps in determining
whether the license is required
by public demand and if the ap
plicant will make ak suitable li
censee. Licenses issued are not
transferable nor may they be
sold, each change of ownership
requiring OLCC approval. No
numerical limitation existed
prior to 1953, when the distill
ed liquor control act limited
the number of premises to one
premises per 2000 state population.
