CLUB LIQUOR SALES
Anti-SaIoon League Attorney
Says They Violate Law.
FAILURE TO GIVE PERMIT
Assessor Richards Says Violation Is
Not Observation-Disclosures
Soon to Issue.

Maj Richard Sylvester, superintendent
or police, has received a letter from At
torney Albert L. Shoemaker, represent
Ing the Anti-Saloon League of the Dis
trict OF Colun..,ia, calling his attention
TO alleged violations of the liquor law
in the clubs in the city in which the
sale OF liquor is permitted and suggest
ing that the law be enforced.
Under the law the excise board is en-
powered to give permits designating the
hours between which sales of liquor are
permitted to be made in clubs. Last
year the board issued permits to the
clubs fixing the hours, some clubs being
required to close their bars at midnight,
while others were permitted to sell liquor
until later hour.
No such permits have been issued by
the board this year. Attorney Shoe
maker learned, and it was deemed ad-
visable to call the matter to the attention
of the authorities. His letter to Maj.
Sylvester reads:
No Permits Issued.
at appears that the excise board has
not issued permits to any licensed club
for the present license year. In spite OF
which fact I am advised that a number
If not all, Of the clubs are selling intox-
icating liquors after IL o'clock midnight.
my opinion is that, under the law,
without a permit from the excise board
no club can legally dispense Intoxicating
liquors between II o'clock midnight and
o'clock in the morning. the hours during
which barro0ms are prohibited from SELL
ing:
I'm my Judgment, IL the clubs are violat-
ing the law In the manner above indicated
they should be treated the same as all
other violators."
Mai. Sylvester referred the letter to AS
SCISSOR Richards. The latter said today
that there had been no intentional VIOLA
lions OF the liquor law on the part OF the
managers Of the clubs.
Make Hours Uniform.
The failure Of the exc. e board to send
the necessary permits to the clubs. he
explained. was partly an oversight and
partly for the reason that the board
wants to make uniform the hours during
which such sales may be made.
Heretofore" said Assessor Richards,
''some clubs have been required to close
at midnight, or O'Clock, and it is now
the intention Of the boar. to fix a uniform
hour. probably l o'clock.
Week days the clubs are privileged
to sell liquor during the hours sales
are permitted in barrooms, from 4 am
until midnight, and the permits give
them the privilege Of sailing after mid
night. Sunday sales are permitted
after am. and until the hour after
midnight the board designates."
Mr.. Richards says the permits will be
issued without much further delay
Sales made In the clubs during the
present license year. he stated, have
been made during the hours specified
In last years permits, and no inten-
tional violation OF the law has been
committed.

after the top has been taken off. he gets
