All Is Quiet in East Grand
Forks-Not One Concern
Has Right to Sell Beer

Apparently fearing that the new
wholesale liquor ordinance. which
went into effect this morning, would
shut off their source of supply from
the wholesalers for some time, East
Grand Forks retail liquor dealers
Thursday stocked their establish
ments with marked care and as
though they expected a real wet

high with beers. wines and WHISTLES.
Several of the brewery agencies

answer vas nothing doing" in ey.

At one agency it was suggested that
there NAV be something doing later,

OF the wholesale agencies and brew
cries In East Grand Forks not one
establishment is, under the new law,
licensed to do business today.
Has Not Paid Fee.
The East Grand Forks Brewing
is the only concern that an
piled to the city council for a license.
Tho license was granted but the COM
pany thus far has failed to remit the
$1,000 required as the license fee.
The police reported this afternoon
that they did not believe that n
OF the breweries or agencies were at
tempting to wholesale today. How
ever, all establishments where liquor
is sold in quantities greater than five
gallons are being closely watched.
Just what action the wholesalers
propose to take and hwat stand the
city will take in the matter is a ~
ton that is not only interesting East
Grand Forks but the entire state, as
this Is the only city in the state where
a wholesale liquor license is required.
