WRIGHT.....................................Stayton In a acientlfic, state-wide aurvey recently completed, a reliable public-opinion research organization, which hat accurately forecast the results of many Oregon elections, finds that "a majority of those who have heard of the measure (liquor-by-the-glass) woulà presently vote for~its passage?” This confirms a similar state-wide aurvey, made last spring, which found 46% of Oregon’s citizens in favor of liquor-by-the-glass and 44% insisting on purchase of liquor by-the-bottle only. It is a fact that whenever opeo-minded citizens or organizations have studied the measure without prior prejudice, they have found reasons for sujyxjrting this measure and no legitimate reasons for opposing it. The Retail Trade Bureau of the Portland Chamber of Commerce says, In an authorized statement: "This Bureau is on record, through its membership, favor ing amendment to the Knox Law which would permit the sale of drinks in hotels and dubs, over the bar. The reason for our taking thia action is the belief that it would encourage temperance and would not neces s itate individuals buying a whole hottie and consuin- jng it immediately, if an individual drink could he purchased." The Oregon State Federation of Labor is on record with the following resolution: "Whereas, the present system of liquor control in Oregon is not good and results in imposition o f unreasonable regulation! upon citizens who desire to consume alcoholic bev erages, and, whereas, the sale of alcoholic beverages in hotels and restaurants and other public places should be lawful without the possession o f club licenses; therefore It is resolved that the Oregon State Federation of Labor will join with any other respon sible groups who initiate the change of the present law to permit the free and open sale of beverages of alcoholic content by responsible licensed businesses without the present cumbersome restrictions.” On February 21, 1948, Oregon’s largest news paper, Tbo Oregonian, said editorially: "The privilege of buying liquor hy-the-drink would be appreciated by tourists, many of whom complain of the present system. It would encourage hotels, restaurants and; enterttinment clubs to improve their facilities. But' without considering these benefits to business, one al so may hope for a decline in drunkeneas in public places and rapid dimlniahment of bootlegging if there is licensing and strict control of legitimate out^J lets for sale of liquor by-the-drlnk.” Seth F. Harper, superintendent o f the State Liquor Dispensary in our neighboring state of Idaho, in a letter dated August 26, 1948, said: "I am certain that with the high license and bond, careful state regula^ tions regarding the sale of liquor, and a good enforce ment operation, sale of liquor by-the-drink can he e decided factor in a temperate regulation of the use of al cholic beverages.” EVEN ITS FRIENDS WILL ADMIT THE KNOX LAW IS FAR FROM PERFECT! C. C. Chapman, o f TA* Dreg»« Votor, has been crith cal of this measure for reasons of his own, but in th» issue of Aligust 7, 1948, he has this to say: "Oregon’s Knox Law seemed the best way to compromise be tween prohibition and the saloon. At 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 chaser could take his own bottle and have service of bis own liquor. Conditions have not been satisfactory to anyone, but they have 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-by-the- glass measure, saidt "Let me emphasize again that the Oregon Women’s Christian Temperance Union is now, as in the past, opposed to all liquor sales, whether they are sales hy-the-glass, or sales by-the- bottle through the state liquor control system operat ing under the Knox law or any other law.’’ — D O N ’T BE FOOLED BY THE PROHIBITION PROPAGANDA VOTE 314 X YES Z iquor Dispensing Licensing Act p d .
