 and also it is my opinion that the
 public is against it, but if the public
 wants it. I will not complain against

 can give saloons a right to open. MT. Desmond stated that in his tall.
 with the amusement committee he told
 them to consider the matter most
 carefully before going ahead with the thing and that he did not understand how his remarks could be interpreted 10 mean that he gave the theatres permission to open, as it wap his opin- ] ion that it was against public opinion 1 The theatre managers after consid- ering the question on Friday have de- l clded not to do anything more about the matter.
