REGISTRY FOR ALL DRuNks?
Lioour Dealers Convention Proposes
an Amendment.

East: st. Louis, ILL.,, Sept. PA plan
for keeping public register of habit
ual drunkards was discussed at the
closing session of the Illinois Liquor
Dealers convention in East st. Louis,
and by a resolution the convention
asks that the habitual drunkard act be
SO amended as to limit the opportuni-
ties of these unfortunates to procure
liquor.
The plan suggested was to require
the relatives of such a man to send
his name to the city clerk, so that the
city authorities can issue a formal or
der against selling to him. 1t is not ex-
pected that the drunkards will register
themselves, but it is suggested that
their relatives should do so when a man
is habitually intoxicated.
Under the present system saloon
man may not know that a man is IN
the habit Of drinking between drinks
and may sell him liquor and be liable
to prosecution for selling to habit
ually soused citizen.
