OREGON NEWSPAPERS SUPPORT 1 liquor-by-the-glass THE OREGONIAN, Portland, Orogon "In Oregon, drinking hard liquor is legal....No one drinks less when he is required to buy a bottle instead of a drink. There is, in fact, a lack of re straint in drinking in automobiles and hotel rooms which is not evident in carefully supervised lounges and clubs. Let's get rid of this nuisance and join the states which carefully control their licensees but do not tell the people they must drink this way, but not that way." . September it, 195t. CORVALUS GAZETTE TIMES "If the the bill is passed it will in no way weaken the state's control over liquor in Oregon. . . . There are thousands of people in this state who would like a . drink or two before their evening meaL If they could go to a cocktail bar and purchase their drink that would be the end of it The person who becomes intoxicated in a bar before dinner is rare, but the intoxicated per- son who drinks from a bottle is not." October S, 195t. ASTORIAN BUDGET "Return of the saloon would be prevented by Knox law provisions. ... It should promote temperance, removing the necessity of buying a whole bottle and conse quent temptation to drink up the whole bottle." September S5, 1952.

GRESHAM OUTLOOK "Based on these facts, it appears that the cause of temperance in Oregon actually would be better served if those who are going to drink are permitted to purchase their beverages by the glass instead of by the bottle . . . therefore recommend a "Yes" vote on this meas ure." October 16, 195Z. THE DALLES CHRONICLE "Our im pression is that Washington's liquor-by-the-glass law has worked out well. It is worth a trial here especially since Oregon was credited, in 1951, with liquor consumption of 1.33 gal lons per capita compAred with Wash ington's 1.26 gallons." October 19,1951. : 1 WALDPORT LINCOLN COUNTY TIMES "This newspaper supports this measure because we are convinced that the sale of liquor by the glass on licensed premises and regulated by the state will be a move toward less -drinking in Oregon." September 18, 195S. , THE OREGON LABOR. PRESS "After careful study, both moral and eco nomic, Oregon unions are recommend ing a vote in favor of the measure." October 17,195t.

The School District Reorganization Act It's a measure to set up machinery to erfable other dis tricts to achieve the sayings of unified school district operation such as we have in Klamath - County. It's a meassure that still leaves the decision to local votes. It doesn't force reorganization, it only makes reorganization possible. It's a measure thot won't cut taxes but which will enable a district to get more for the school tax dollar. e It's a measure that wont directly effect Klamath Coun ty, because we already have achieved what this will enable other counties to do. It's a measure which should benefit Klamath County in the long run, when other districts become more efficient and so require less drain on the basic school fund. It's a measure that was passed in the 1951 legislature by big majorities and which is endorsed and ad vocated by our three legislators, Sen. Phil Hitch cock, Rep. Henry Semon and Rep. Ed Geary.
