Nebraska Leads Again Nebraska, known everywhere for its social and economic^ leadership, became the testing ground one year ago for Bn experiment unique in the history of American industry—' the self-regulatory program of the Nebraska Brewers and Beer Distributors Committee. Organized to shut off the beer supply from outlets oper ating against the public welfare and to the detriment of the large majority of law-abiding retailers, our program won the instant approval of state, county and municipal officials, com munity leaders and the public press. No longer an experiment but a proved success, thanks to the cooperation and efficiency of the Nebraska Liquor .Control Commission, this plan for self-regulation has been used as the model for other state self-regulatory programs under the sponsorship of the United Brewers Industrial Foun dation. Similar programs are now functioning in Kansas, Alabama, Tennessee, North Carolina and Maine. The Foun*; dati3n plans to extend this work gradually, as facilities permit, throughout the country. The announcement of our program on June 5, 1938, was widely hailed in Nebraska as our definite pledge to work shoulder-to-shoulder with law-enforcement authorities on behalf of the public interest. Now, as our second year begins, we renew our pledge to Assist the forces of law and order in eliminating anti-social conditions surrounding the sale of beer.
