Official Claims By Drink Law Eased Enforcement Task
The Oregon Liquor Control Commission administrator says liquor by the drink is well accepted and has eased enforcement. He notes a drop in distilled spirits use from 1.25 to 1.21 gallons per capita between 1952 and 1960, and says crime rates and after hours sales declined with the change. He argues purchase by the glass promotes temperance and reduces home bottle risks. The letter to Virginia reformers was made public Thursday. He cites dispenser operations and limited intoxicated sales as improvements. The note ties into Virginia debates on adopting by the drink legislation.
