Why Require Purchase Of a Bottle?
LEGALIZE LIQUOR BY THE GLASS
- r / 'j q u it k id d in g ourselves! I t is sensible to encourage the p u r-
iase o f u n lim ite d q uantities o f liq u o r b y -th e -b o ttle and at the
same tim e have it illegal to purchase even so m uch as one d rin k
o f liq u o r by-tbe-glass.
Yet th a t is the situ atio n in O regon today . . . a situ a tio n the
Oregon liq u o r Dispensing lic e n s in g A c t (314 X Y E S !) is design­
ed to co rrect by m aking it legal to purchase liq u o r cith e r b y -tb e -

L iq u o r b y -th c -g la s i, as well as by the b o ttle , was made avail
able in our neighboring state o f Idaho, on J u ly 1, 1947. C on sum p ­
tio n declined im m ediately.
l o r several m onths now , our state liq u o r stores have been holding
bargain sales" announcing a ttra c tiv e reductions in prices and
encouraging the p u b lic to buy more liq u o r b y -th c -b o ttle .
One commissioner stated recently th a t as a result o f this " m e r­
chandising" state liq u o r inventories had been reduced by some
$2 m illio n .
