FRY RESIGNS i (CONTINTtWD mOM have anticipated but apparently were held up us a patronage whip over the legbdature which i met. from January 7 to March 8. i The original liquor control ad "established a system of 12 importers" to regulate collection of beer taxes and made no provision for retailing hard liquor "by the drink.' 1 Fry was accused of issuing the) "lucrative Importer" licenses to political friends and failing to enforce the hard liquor regulations. | The 1935 legislature revised the ■ control system, t reating a three ! member board, retaining Fry as excise administrator, providing for 1 retail sale of hard liquor, replacI Ing importer? with "port of entry” and increasing the number of retail outlets permissible. At the same time Fry was serving as state purchasing agent. When charges of graft in the purchasing department arose, McNutt issued an executive order separating the two departments and elim- ! inating Fry from the purchasing | setup. The letter was made public thiq 1 morning by Fry's secretary while the liquor administrator was enroute by auto to his home at Linton.
