Gov. J. Bracken Lee and Mayor Earl J. Glade promised to fight any reduction that would endanger the cities' and counties' share of profits. The governor said that under an interpretation of the law by the attorney general's office, the state 55 per cent markup, may be applied to the wholesale price of liquor not including the federal fed-eral excise tax of $9 per 100-proof gallon. If this plan is followed, it would result in a $1 lowering in the price of a bottle of bonded bourbon. The proposed change would be made primarily to halt the practice of bootlegging from near-by states where it can be purchased cheaper. Lee said that the effect of stopping stop-ping the bootlegging should have a stimulating effect on sales and actually increase the "take" by the state liquor commission. The governor added that if it did not, the liquor commission has the authority to raise the markup percentage. Law onlv requires that it be at least "55 per cent.

The average work week, the department said, reached a postwar post-war low of 38.3 hours in April, and average weekly earnings dropped to $52.62, off $2.50 from December s all-time peak. Meanwhile, the bureau of employment em-ployment security said that 1,-000,000 1,-000,000 more workers were out of work in mid-May than a year ago.
