TO
55 CENTS PINT
Continuing the intensive cam
paign underway to eliminate from
business the bootlegger, the state
liquor store here will soon offer for
sale "good whiskey at 85 cents a
pint," it was announced today.
The shipment Is expected in about
two weeks, and will be made up of
"reliable liquor." which drinkers can
be assured carries no poison under
the government stamp. While It will
probably be not much more than six
months of age, It promises to be gooa
whiskey.
The state commission is doing
everything possible, Earl Foy, manager
of the local store, pointed out today,
to reduce the price on liquors in
order to run V'l bootlegger clear out
of the field. i Is Impossible, how
ever, to lowei . price on certain old
brands.
The Pacific coast now has prac
tically all the old bonded liquor in
existence. The aupply haa Been ex
hausted In the east, and for thia rea
son the state pays highly for It and
must not sell the liquor at a loss.
Liquor is now being shipped from
Canada In kega for bottling In Oregon
to bring down the cost. The state
will not aell the liquor below cost,
because whenever the commission
loses a cent, so does the taxpayer.
Indications that the public Is set
tllne down to more moderate drink
ing are found In the Increased sale
of wine, noted at the local store. The
lighter drink la now aelllng at the
same rate as whiskey, which has not
been characteristic of the American
thirst In the past.
A steady Increase In sales has been
experienced at the state atore here
each week and witn me increase
come no change In the dlgnlfiea
ntmosDhere of the store.
No one under the Influence of
liquor can obtain liquor at the store
and no trouble has resulted from
enforcement of this ruling here, of
ficials stated today. Ill public seems
to understand that the liquor store
is operated In the same manner aa
any other merchandise establishment
and has made no effort to destroy the
atmosphere of quiet, which has pre
vailed there aince opening at the loca
tion on South Bartlett.
Members of the game division,
Oregon state police, said today that
the salmon at savage ttapias awn.
had been taken out of the hole on
the south side, and were back in the
river.
Approximately one thousand fish,
both young and old were taken from
the hole, the officer in charge said.
