These submarines, shown tied op at Charlestown, Mass., said their
farewell to arms after the World war armistice in 1918. Now they are

BEER INDUSTRY?;
CAMPAIGN DURING
YEAR SUCCESS ,
Good Response To Clean
Up Drive, Which Will Be
Continued, Attributed To
Law Enforcement Co-oper
ation.
Raleigh, Oct. 31—The success
of the beer industry’s “clean up
or close up” campaign in North
Carolina is due largely to the co
operation of the law enforcement
agencies, the director in charge
of the campaign said today.
Edgar H. Bain of Goldsboro,
state director of the Brewers and
North Carolina Beer Distributors
committee, praised the city and
county officials for their aid in
the statewide drive to rid com
munities of objectionable beer
outlets.
“Since the self-regulation pro
gram was launched in North Car
olina last year, we have eliminat
ed 132 objectionable dealers,” said
Colonel Bain. “Os this number,
107 lost their licenses by revoca
tion. We succeeded in blocking
the renewal of 23 licenses, and
two surrendered their licenses
after we had instituted revocation
proceedings.
“City and county officials, state
and local law enforcement offi
cials have cooperated in this
campaign, and its success is large
ly due to their willingness to aid
us.”
Bain reported on the success of
the campaign at the annual meet
ing of the United Brewers In
dustrial Foundation in St. Louis
last week. The Foundation spon
sors the self-regulation program

Continuation of the beer indus
try's “clean up or close up” cam
paign in North Carolina for an
other 12-month period has been
authorized by the United Brewers
Industrial Foundation, the spon
soring organization.
The foundation, sponsor of sim
iliar programs in 13 other states,
was told of the progress of the
active campaign of Director
Bain’s committee to protect for
citizens of North Carolina the
social, temperate and economic
benefits of the state’s $10,500,000
legal beer industry.
The report cited that 132 ob
jectionable beer dealers in North
Carolina had been forced out of
the retail beer business as a re
sult of the “clean up or close up”
campaign.
The purpose of the Foundation
is to bring a greater public knowl
edge of the social and economic
aspects of beer and brewing and
a correct interpretation of the in
dustry’s activities.
The Foundation’s research
shows that beer contributes more
than a million dollars a day in
public revenues—has contributed
two and a half billion dollars in
seven and a half years since re
legalization; has distributed gen
eral business benefits totaling
more than twelve billion dollars
through the retail sale of beer
in all 48 states; and now gives

Auto And Wagon
Collisions Source
Os Many Inuiries
A spurt this fall in deaths and
injuries arising from collisions be
tween motor vehicles and animal
drawn vehicles on North Caro
lina streets and highways has
prompted Ronald Hocutt, director
of the Highway Safety Division,
to set forth some safety sugges
tions for drivers of wagons and
carts.
Hocutt said 13 persons were
killed and 76 injured in the state
last year in collisions between
motor vehicles and animal-drawn
wagons and carts, and that se
veral such accidents have occur
red in the past few weeks.
“The farmer riding along the
highway in his wagon or cart
doesn’t stand much chance when
an automobile or truck hits him,”
said Hocutt. “In many cases he is
killed outright, and in practical
ly every such accident the per
son or persons riding in the horse
cart suffer injuries of some de
scription. About the least he can
expect is that his wagon or cart
be badly smashed up and his
horse or mule killed or crippled.
“For these reasons, persons who
drive a horse-drawn vehicle
on the highways of North Caro
lina should take every step pos
sible to protect themselves from
the rsults of a collision with a
motor vehicle.”
Some safety suggestions Hocutt
listed for drivers of wagons and
carts are:
Don’t drive on paved highways
except when absolutely necessary,
and then stay far over to the
