LEGALIZE LIQUOR BY THE GLASS! la • scientific, state-wide survey recently completed, • reliable public-opinion research organization, which has accurately forecast the results of many Oregon elections, finds that "a maiority ot those wh«> have heard n t the measure (tiquor-hy»hc-glass) would presently vote tor its passage!’’ This confirms a similar state-wide survey, made last spring, which found 46% of Oregon's citizens in favor of liquor-by-the-glass and 41% insisting on purchase of liquor by-the-bottle only. It is a fact that whenever open-minded citizens or organizations have studied the measure without prior prejudice, they have found reasons for supporting this measure and no legitimate reasons for opposing it. The Retail Trade Bureau of the Portland Chamber of t omnierce says, in an authorized statement: "Thia Bureau is on record, through its membership, favor ing amendment to the Knox Law w hich would permit the sale of drinks in hotels and clubs, over the bar. The reason for our taking this action is the belief that it would encourage temperance and would not neces sitate individuals buying a whole hottie and consum ing it immediately, if an individual drink could lie purchased." The Oregon State Federation of Labor is on record w ith the following resolution: "Whereas, the present a n d so a r e G re y h o u n d fa re s Yee, you’ll make big savings by Greyhound ..w ith faree fa r less than o th er kinds of trav el...o n ly 4 the coat of driving.

C. C. Chapman. of Tbt Oregon I'o/er, has been criti cal of this measure for reasons of his own, but in the issue ot August 7, 1948, he has this to say: "Oregon’s Knox Law seemed the best way to compromise be tween prohibition and the saloon. It has worked out fairly well. Under it there have been no centers for drinking of hard liquor except the home, the licensed club or the licensed establishment to which the pur- chaaer could take his own bottle and hate service of his own liquor. Conditions have not been satisfactory to anyone, hut they hate approached a moderate acceptability." In a recent published statement, Mrs. Ruth E. Tooze, state president of the W.C.T.U., typical of the organizations working against the liquor-hy-the. glass measure, said: "Let me emphasize again that the Oregon Women's Christian Temperance Union is now, u in the past, opposed to all liquor sales, whether they are sales hy-thtglass, or sales hy-the- hottle through the state liquor control system operat ing under the Knox law o r any other law."

It would encourage hotels, restaurants and entertainment clubs to improve their facilities. But without considering these benefits to business, one also may hope for a decline in drunkeness in public places and rapid dimtnishment of bootlegging if there is licensing and strict control of legitimate out lets for sale of liquor hy-the-drink."
