ALCOHOL: Beer: As tax returns and information are con-
fidential, unless authorized by a beer distributor,
the release of their beer tax report by local
governing body would violate provisions of the sta-
tute and be subject to penalties; only Commissioner

ALCOHOL: Permits: Regulations: T.C.A. S 57-3-301 which
regulates manufacture, importation, distribution
and sale of alcoholic beverages in this state, does
not violate Tennessee Constitution as it does not
grant exclusive right to engage in wholesale of
alcoholic beverages that was previously an activity
of common right in this state. Tenn. Const. Art.
I, S 22; T.C.A. 5 57-3-301; Ch. 341, 1979 Tenn.
