Following are the texts of their staatements: Governor Calvin L. Ramp ton: T shall vote against the proposal. Excessive use of alcohol is a major social problem in the United States, as well as in many other countries. Utahs per capita annual consumption of alcoholic beverages is relatively low. Part of the credit for this without doubt, must be given Liquo- r-by-the-drink to the teachings of the LDS PAYSON AND Church in discouraging the use of alcohol. Some- of the credit for the low consumption, however, undoubtedly must also be given to our present liquor control laws. In my judgement liquor is not a significant factor in industrial and tourist development. Weighing all the facts, I am voting no. Carl W. Buehner: "I am convinced that the Liquor Petition now before Utahs voters is not a good bill for our people. For one thing, it is too permissive for our youth.

Milton L. Weilenmann: drink is not needed in the State of Utah. The cost in human suffering is far too great a price to pay. As an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-da- y Saints, I believe in the basic tenents of my faith which embraces the Word of Wisdom. However, the stand I take on this issue goes far beyond my religious beliefs, for here we are faced with a basic moral issue. That issue being the kind of community in which we should live. I have read the proposed law I think everyone should know its possible effects. To my way of thinking, they would be disastrous for the State of Utah. Senator Wallace F. Bennett: in Utah is not an issue in the U.S. Senate race because it will not come before that body.
