Beer Bill Moves Through Virginia Legislature
The beer bill conference report advances after three sessions as the Senate adopts the measure with a 32 to 4 vote. Senators N B Early L M Robinette W Worth Smith Jr H H Watson oppose with several not voting. The legislature also pushes redistricting study by a ten member commission and considers renewal of recovery act aligned measures. The House rejects a move to study senatorial and legislative redistricting while the Senate backs employment bureau funding and Home Owners Loan Corp investments. The governor sends messages on bank liquidation open bank stock, highway route changes, Byrd road plan modifications and a oil code adjustment to ease gasoline tax competition. A joint resolution urges Roosevelt to modify the oil code to allow tax sharing among retailers near borders.
