New law Affects Liceßsesfor Beer Slate ABC Board Sole Power to Issue License After June 30 North Carolina’s beer industry has pledged wholehearted support of the new law which places regulation and enforcement of statutes governing the sale and distribution of malt bever ages in the hands of the State Board of Alcoholic Control, according to Ray C. Galloway, director of the North Carolina Division of the Unit ed States Brewers Foundation, and William P. Johnston, executive sec retary of the North Carolina Associa tion of Beer Distributors. Under the new control act, the ABC Board is strengthened by the creation of a Malt Beverage Divi sion, with at least 15 field inspectors, exercising authority similar to other police officers in enforcing the law. Cost of the enlarged program of the / Board is to be borne by using not more than five per cent of the beer taxes collected by the State. The new law gives the ABC Board sole power to determine the fitness and qualifications of applicants for beer permits. Before issuing a li cense, the Board is required to inves tigate the fitness of the applicant and the location, general appearance and type of business operated by the in dividual. All applications for permits to sell beer must be filed in writing with the Board, with all statements made under oath. Permits may not be given appli cants convicted of a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude, or who were adjudged guilty of violating the prohibition laws within the two years preceding application for a permit. Licenses are to be denied those ap plicants whose licenses to sell alcohol beverages of any kind were revoked j within five years preceding the date ,of application. If any applicant re ceives a beer license, and it is found that he knowingly made a false state ment in his application, his permit is to be revoked, and upon conviction, he shall be subject to the penalty provided by law for misdemeanors. All individuals intending to apply for a permit to sell beer must notify county and municipal authorities, and the public. Any objections to the is suance of such a permit are to be filed with the State ABC Board, and a hearing held before action is taken on the application for a license. The Board may suspend or revoke any beer license if it decides the li censee is not a suitable person to hold the permit, or that the premises he occupies are objectionable. Licensees against whom action is pending are to be entitled to a hearing before the Board, if the licensees request it. Municipal and county authorities are to retain their power to revoke licenses, -with revocation of one beer license calling for revocation of all issued to the person involved. The act does not require any county or municipality to issue licenses for any territory where the sale of local beer has been prohibited by legislative ac fSl«iiniMninminiiiimiiMiiniiiin»iiiiinHiiiiMiiHiiMiiiiiM>ffl SETH THOMAS j CLOCKS | CAMPEN’S | JEWELERS ffipsPlan AheadC '- m , - H 'fMfce '..a-.- > 11 m iH LONNIE R.

HARRELL PHONE 481-W-3 EDENTON TAXES and TELEPHONES 1 Take a good look at your next telephone bill, and you will see that Federal taxes make up an Important percentage of your bill! Federal tax on local service Is 15%. On long distance service where the charge is 25c or over, the tax is 25%. Other forms of telephone service are taxed from 8 to 25%. This tav is imposed directly upon you as a telephone user. Yonr telephone company, at its own expense, acta as tax collector. Telephone service today is usually regarded as a necessity. Yet the 25% tax on long distance and other services is higher than the 20% sot luxury items, such as jewelry and furs. Telephone users everywhere have expressed their opinions on dds high excise tax to their Senators and Representatives in Congress. Their views will help to guide future Congression al action on this unusual peacetime tax on a necessity. We are sure that your Congressmen would appreciate your views as a taxpayer and citizen on telephone taxes.
