Bill Would Restrict Liquor Licenses But Affects Beer
An Assembly Government Organization Committee heard a bill claiming to curb liquor license growth would, in effect, limit beer and wine licenses less. State Board of Equalization tax counsel Hugh Strachan warned the bill could strip the board of power over beer and wine licenses, aligning with wine interests. Geddes urged committee OK, but panel postponed action for a week to consult the board. He proposed lowering hard liquor limits in populous counties and adjusting county per capita ratios. The measure would remove beer and wine licenses from totals, while three beer distributor bills faced strong opposition from Safeway Stores.

Defense Eyes Draft Plan Changes for Doctors in 1953
The Defense Department proposes extending the doctor draft beyond its current expiration and asks the budget bureau to clarify proposals. Officials say the shift may hinge on how medical personnel are classified, with the bill aiming to broaden Pentagon authority as Korea draws on medical manpower. The plan contrasts with Eisenhower’s earlier cut of doctors to be drafted and analyzes prior service groups, proposing two categories instead of four.
