TO CUT down
LIQUOR firms

Restriction rather than expansion of
the liquor traffic in Honolulu IL the
general rule that probably will be ap.
piled by the Board of License Com.
missioners, which met this afternoon
to pass on the applications for new es.
Establishments and for renewals of old
licenses.
The opinion of the Board generally },
as expressed by the majority of the
individual members, is that no new
licenses should be given. A number
of applications for renewals, already
protested, probably will be denied, but
tain the number of liquor firms to its
present size, are likely to be consider.
ed favorably.
The Board met this afternoon at 3

Capitol building, and the following Ii.

Though the License Board held its
regular meeting yesterday afternoon

holiday and the members feared that
action might be declared not binding
by attorneys representing individuals
pHeCteu,
The objections of the representa-.
tives of the Anti-Saloon League were
heard on the applications of several
saloon-keepers, principally those of
Murakami, for a saloon on Beretania
street; S. Kojima & Co., for a first.
class wholesale license; Jack Roberts
of the Kentucky saloon and the Paddy
Ryan establishment. The League, pre-.
senting petition signed by 279
names opposing the Murakami license,
asked that the petition be applied to
all similar establishments In the Four.
teenth Precinct of the Four District.
Inspector Fennell also advised that
the license of the Kojima firm be de.
MED, because, he declared, the proprie.
tor violated the law requiring that the
owner be resident of this country.
He said that Kojima spends his time
in Japan, only paying Honolulu occa.
sional visits.
Perhaps the most serious objection
10 license renewals was made, howev.
er, by the Tax Assessor, who filed
list of firms delinquent in making in.
come tax returns. He named in this
category Thomas McTighe, Joseph
Silva, Thomas Ryan, Isaac Cockett,
Isasaki, C. Bollman, Ono and Zenihiro,
Bertha Klemme, Tsunochi and the Ad.
yuma Teahouse.
