Ranized for May in the interest Of

Following the announcement that

word is reaching Washington from
many other points that an attempt will
be made to stampede the gatherings

CITY FATHERS TELL WHY
ORDINANCE IS APPROVED
City Commissioners Issue Signed
Explanation of Their Reasons for
Approving Ordinance No. 10
Phoenix, AriZ, July ), 1914

To the Citizens of Phoenix:
Several articles have appeared in
the Arizona Republican criticizing
the action of the commissioners in
passing Ordinance No 10.
This ordinance was passed in place
of that part of Ordinance No.
which related 10 the licensing and
regulation of the liquor traffic of this
city.
After a referendum petition had
been filed against Ordinance No. 6.
and Ordinance No. 6 then being re-
pealed by the commissioners. the
commissioners desired to pass an or
dinance which would control and re-
gulate the liquor traffic of the city
We found that in part of Ordinance
6 relating to the liquor traffic there
were things which we thought would
be detrimental to the best interests of
the city. Among them was the in
discriminate licensing of restaurants
which would have the power to sell
and dispose of liquor upon payment
of $4,000 per quarter. As practi
cally all of the restaurants of our
city are owned and managed by Chi
nese we We're of the opinion that it
would be impossible to control them
in manner satisfactory to the citi-
zens of THE city Of Phoenix: there
fore we decided to entirely cut out
from the ordinance the licensing of
restaurants.
In ordinance No. there was a
provision for the licensing of clubs
We decided upon investigation to
eliminate that part of the ordinance
as it would give an opportunity for
irresponsible people, under the dis
guise of being a fraternal or social
organization to operate clubs upon
the payment of a license tax of $50
per quarter
We found that hotels of fifty rooms
or more, under the ordinances of our
city, had for years been paying an
additional license Of $1,000 per quar-
ter for selling liquor in their dining
rooms upon Sunday, said ordinances
providing for no restrictions what
ever, persons did not have to pur-
chase a meal, or in fact anything to
sold to or what quantity of liquor
was sold by such hotels. We decided
| that very rigid regulations should be
| enacted by the commission which
would absolutely prevent the abuse of
this privilege; therefore in the new
| ordinance We incorporated regulations,
similar to those in force in all cities
of southern California. including
| cities in which prohibition is n eff
| feet, which would prevent anyone eX-
| cepting actual bona fide transient
guests fro mhaving liquor served to
| them upon Sundays, excepting in
