In Des Moines on January 4 the state liquor control bill won momentum as the lower house rejected an amendment to remove the commission. The body approved a Teeter Reed proposal to cut nine part time members to three full time commissioners at 3600 dollars yearly, scrapping a liquor administrator. The house also defeated a private sale provision 86 to 17, keeping state control and salaries at set levels.
