MAY CHANGE LAWS
FOR D. c. LICENSING
Committee Appointed to
Study and Recommend Re-
vision of Permit Rules.

The Commi issioners today appointed
a committee to study the laws relat-
ing to the licensing Of business estab-
lishments in the District and to
recommend any changes they believe
should be made in those laws.
The committee is composed of
Francis H. Stephens, corporation
counsel: Daniel E. Garges. secretary
to the Commissioners. and Wade H.
Coombs, superintendent of the license
Office.
The city heads took this action fol-
lowing receipt of a letter from Supt.
Coombs. in which he outlined a num-
Der Of revisions he believes should be
made in the law.
The first suggestion of the superin-
tendent is that drug stores should pay
a higher license than $6 a year. now
required of them. The superintendent
tells the Commissioners that 'in view
of the profit which appears to be de-
rived from this line of business" the
license should be $50 a year.
The same law requires building or
other contractors to pay license of $25
a year. Mr.. CoombS points out that the
Court of Appeals has held the term
other contractors" to be too indefinite.
The superintendent recommends that
this section be amended to define more
clearly the contractors to be licensed.
No Cigarette Fee.
Under existing law a license of $12 a
year is required to sell cigars. but this
permit is not required to sen cigarettes
or other forms of manufactured tobacco.
This section should be amended to IN
clude dealers In all forms of tobacco.
the superintendent believes.
made in connection with the licensing of
poolrooms. One is that the&law should
be changed to require the approval OF
the Commissioners on applications for
poolroom licenses. The other suggestion
is that the law should fix definitely the
hours during which poolrooms may be
open.
Poolrooms Close with Bars.
The existing law specifically states
that poolrooms shall remain closed
throughout the twenty-four hours
Sundays and that week days they
should close at the same hour that
barroonns are required to close. with
the passing out of the. saloon. Mr.
Coombs, said. there was left no guild
should shut their doors. hence he
believes definite bours for these es-
tablishme nts should be written into
the law ss
Mr.. Coombs also goes on record
in favor of raising from ! to 2 per
cent the monthly interest rate that
pawnbrokers may charge in the Dis
trict. The Commissioners have al
ready sent to Congress bill that
would provide for this change, SO
that this recommendation will not
have to be considered by the fnvesti-
eating. committee.
Mr.. Coombs points out that the
rate of per cent a month on pawneo
articles has resulted in the closing
of all pawn shops in the District:
The superintendent believes many OF
them would reopen on a rate --of
per cent and that much stolen prop
erty that now gets away from the
notice would be recovered through
these establishments.
