(AP) The Oregon liquor control commls sinn served notice today that each and every beer snd wine outlet In the state will be subjected to the closest scrutiny before next year's dl censes are Issued. The task of checking each of the 6000 licenses now on file will require about nine weeks' time. The liquor commission's action of today Indicated beer and wine con numptton In. Oregon Is nearlng the Saturation point. The board revoked the licenses of seven establishments, impended two others, and dented every one of the eight new applica tions presented. Listen to Complaints Nearly all the refusals of licenses were grounded on the complaints of residents ne&r the proposed outlets, and on the opinion of the commis sion's Investigators that certain cities already are well supplied with beer parlors. i Indicative of the scrutiny with! which current licenses will be exam ined, was the instruction given to day to Eugene Kelty, assistant ad ministrator. He was asked to have his operatives check the past record or each beer retailing establishment. Its previous suspensions or warnings, evidences of Illegal gambling devices, proximity to churches, parks or schools, and sanitary conditions in the establishments. The seven revocations included three In Portland, three in Lake view and one In Klamath Falls. Servlres to Drunks Costly The three Lakevlew cases involved licenses held by John Westlln, Art Qaylean and Phoebe Metzker. In each case the accusation was that beer had been served intoxicated persons, and In each case the revocations were made on the recommendation of the police chief and sheriff at Lakevlew. William Sandell of Klamath Falls had his license revoked on the alle gation he had served beer to intoxi cated persons. A 10-dny suspension was handed to D. A. Shannon and Iris Rice, op erators of the Old Dutch Mill at Rose burg, holders of a package store li cense, for reputedly having served without food. Low Prices Bring Protest Members of the liquor administra tion board received considerable pleas ure from a letter from the National Retail Liquor Package Stores associ ation of New York, which asked the Oregon board either to stop advertis ing its prices or to raise prices, to conform to the level of neighbor states. The association complained that the state -con trolled stores are under selling the licensed private dispens ers of California, and the state-operated stores of Washington and Idaho, and that Oregon is thus "demoraliz ing" the liquor market. The Oregon board decided to ignore the plea. Issuance of duplicates to those who lose original liquor permits will he atopped when the 1036 permits will distributed. The new permits will cost 50 cents, and the same charge will be made for a duplicate. Con siderable saving in printing costs and clerical work la expected.
