Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the State Liquor Control Commission will present to the Legislature a proposal,
drafted at the urging of large petroleum dealers, which will allow gasoline stations with connected
grocery trade to sell package liquor; and

to sell package liquor only if its grocery trade is larger than its gasoline sales; and
WHEREAS the Michigan Council on Alcoholic Problems ho s taken a strong stand against
the proposed rule,
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners hereby
strongly opposes the adoption of such a proposal as it could, in effect, condone and promote
drunk driving,
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copy of this resolution be sent to the Michigan Liquor Control
Commission and the senators, representatives and legislative agent of Oakland County.
The General Government Committee, by Robert W. Page, Chairman, moves the adoption of
