Members of Commission Ex-
} pected to Take Up Duties
Tuesday.
REDUCTION OF LICENSES
is CAUSE OF SURPRISE
Believed High License Fee Will
Close More Saloons Next
Year.

Liquor traffic in the District of CO.
lumbia will be brought under organ
fzed control for the first time since
July i with the swearing in Tuesday
of the members of the new excise
board.
Because Gen. Robert g. Smith was
not in the city yesterday. Joseph c.
Sheehy and Henry S. Baker, the other
two members of the board. decided to
postpone organizatio of the commits
sion. 1t is expected that Gen. Smith
will have arrived by Tuesday and that
the oaths of office will be administered
without further delay.
Outside of adopting regulations for
carrying out provisions contained in
the Jones-Works act, the new officials
are not expected to be beset with many
difficulties at the beginning Of their
administration. Most of the provisions
OF the law involving difficult admins
trstive features. such as the require
snent that not more than three sa-
looms shall be permitted on a single
block. do not become effective until
November l of next year.
Prepares Regulations.
Roger Williams. chief clerk of the
excise board which went out of exist
ence July 1. has prepared a set OF
<tentative regulations which the new
board doubtless will find useful. 1t is
believed that Mr.. Williams will be con-
sidered for the position of chief clerk
to the present commission, as he had
:, record of thirty five years of efiicient
service in the District government at
the time his office was abolished.
Although there has been no excise
board In charge of liquor traffic in the
District for the past two months. con-
dftions at no time became -chaotic as
far as compliance by liquor men with
the law was concerned. The arrange
ment devised for the filing of applica-
tions for license renewals with DIR.
Tindall. secretary to the commissioners ~
Surprise was created by the large NUM-
ber of liquor establishments that failed
TO make application for authority to con-
1inue in business - after .. Novemoer ghnsa.aie L.
places are included in the number, as
compared with two saloons and ten
wholesale houses that failed to make
application year ago.
Higher License Fee Cause.
The reduction. it is believed. is due to
the increase In the amount Of license
fees. the advance being from $500 to $500
for wholesale and $500 to $1,000 for re-
tail licenses.
Fees received from 46S saloons as COM
pared with 49S last year and 116 whole
sale establishments produced a total
revenue of $J06,0OO, as compared with
SI35 800 received from this source a year
ago, or an increase of $40, 100.
District officials last night took the
view that much larger number of sa-
looms will fail to make applications for
license renewals next year. when the
license fee is increased to $500. One Of
the provisions Of the new law is that the
number of saloons in the District shall be
reduced to 800 by November I, 1914. 1t is
suggested that the heavy license fee may
operate to largely bring about this re-
suit without requiring great deal Of
action .y the excise board.
