Macon county is included in this area. State and county funds ap propriated for this work amount to $90,000. and TV A will furnish $20,000. Included in the state and county money are funds furnished by the Clarke-McNary act. Responsibility for protecting the 1.6 million acres of forest lands outside federal ownership in the 15 counties rests with the State Division of Forestry and Parks. Limited funds have per mitted protection of only 1.4 million acres, and even here it has not been adequate. Forest ers find that almost 500 fires still occur in these counties in an average year burning about three per cent of the total for est area. With adequate protec tion it should be possible to re i duce this burned area to one | fourth of one per cent annual - | ly, according to a statement by | the North Carolina State For-j ' ester's office. TV A is joining wjth the state and county agencies in a por tion of the Tennessee river watershed area in a project which has as its objectives the providing of adequate fire pro tection for 1,687,000 acres of privately and state and muni cipally owned lands in 15 coun ties in this area and the dem-1 onstration of how the area burned annually can be reduc ed to one-fourth of one per cent of the total forest area through proper fire protection, according to a statement by Willis M Baker, TV A official.

America's Beverage of Moderation What The LAW Requires The question is sometimes raised as to what the law requires of retail beer dealers. Here are the prin cipal requirements for those who sell malt bev erages for consumption on the premises, as condensed from the North Carolina Beverage Con trol Act of 1939, as amended : T o obtain a retail beer license, one must show: 1. That he is over 21 years old and has been a resident of the State and a citizen of the United States for one year or more. 2. That he has not been convicted of a felony or other crime in volving moral turpitude or adjudged guilty of violating the prohibition laws within two years. 3. That he intends to carry on the business for himself or under his immediate supervision and direction. T o keep his license , a retail dealer must not: ' 1. Knowingly sell malt beverages .to anyone under 18 years of age. (Another act prohibits employment of minors under 18 years of age in places where beer is sold for consumption on the premises.) 2. Knowingly sell such beverages to intoxicated persons. 3. Sell such beverage outside the legal hours. 4. Permit disorderly conduct, improper or immoral entertain ment, conduct or practices on premises. 5. Sell, offer for sale, possess or permit the consumption on the licensed premises of any alcholic liquors not authorized under hi* license. These are the fundamental points of the North Carolina code for beer dealers. This Committee heartily endorses every one of these requirements and through our Self -Regulation Program we feel that we have accomplished much toward bringing about their acceptance and observance by the great majority of beer dealers in North Carolina. For complete legal details regarding the sale of beer, one should refer to the law itself, a copy of which can be obtained free of charge from the Commit tee's Raleigh office.
