Mayor Woody Brooks of Andrews said sale of liquor by the drink ought to be investigated "as a possible avenue of revenue" if the people vote wet in November and if the General Assembly ratifies that vote. Brooks emphasized at a news conference that this was his personal opinion and did not represent any formal stand of the association.

He proposed a possible tax of 10 cents a drink with five cents going to the state and two and a half cents each to the cities and counties. If open bars are allowed, Brooks suggested that they be controlled locally. "Open bars could get out of hand," he said, "unless city councils screen the applicants." "The cities are starving to death taxwise," Brooks declared. He said the state's 253 incorporated municipalities must find "some major source of revenue." It is obvious, he asserted, that financially hard-pressed cities and towns must tap new revenue sources in the immediate future "if our present system of sound, efficient government is to survive." "This has to be the year of push from our standpoint," he said. Brooks indicated the association will ask the 1967 General Assembly to authorize new of revenue and easier laws governing annexation.

During the 1966 legislative session, Brooks said the associ ation helped pass legislation that included a public referen I i itirifc-- jjf Iv dum on liquor laws, reopening of state parks, opening of tax commission records to municipalities, allowing city councils an option in calling annexation elections and broadening the planning and development act COLUMBIA A feathery free-loader enjoys a lunch of peanuts on the State House grounds.
