LIQUOR DEALERS UNEASY
OVER COUNCILS ACTION

The action of the Montclair Town
Council last night in laying ove ac-
ton on the excise licenses until next
Thursday night has caused consider
able CONSERVATION among the liquor
dealers OF that town. The licenses
of the present applicants have been
renewed year after year practically
without opposition for a number of
years, and 1t has not been limited that
charges had been preferred against
any of them.
The Women's Christian Temperance
Union made its usual annual appeal
against the granting of n licenses
to sell liquor in Montclair, but this
has been taken by the council more
as a reminder that no new licenses
should be granted. 1t has been gen.
orally believed that the liquor dealers
of Montclair have kept strictly within
the law, and the fact that the coun-
ell went into executive session for a
half hour. and on returning to the
council chambers postponed action
until next Thursday night, seemed to
Indicate that charges had been pre-
ferred against someone.
