MAYOR DEMANDS REGU LATION

Definite steps IN the direction Of the
further curbing and controlling of the
liquor traffic In Richmond arc clearly
Indicated from the attitude of Council
men and city officials at q preliminary
conference held yesterday afternoon.
The subcommittee from the Council
Committee on Ordinances. Charter and
Reform, composed of Messrs. Umlauf,
chairman Hunsdon Cary and w. T..
White. have IN hand the question Of
regulating the sale of liquor in the
city, and the various propositions re-
Gently made have been submitted to
them. One of the propositions, the
raising Of the license to $1,000. came
originally from Alderman Elicit. An
other, which came from Alderman Dab
ney. is Ito restrict the number Of IL
censes to be issued and to designate
the blocks or the territory In whicn
barrooms shall be located.

they would be In better position
with the aid of the Chief Of Police and
his officers. to know and decide wherc
liquors ought not bc SOLD and wha,
men ought not to obtain license. This
opinion still prevails among tho CON.
