He said his police department
had even quit recording complaints
against specific locations which

Mayor Cain expressed amaze
ment at this and suggested that
information bearing upon beer
tavern locations might be turned
over to him 10 that he would
have something TO guide him In
signing or rejecting the state APP
plications.
1t was Eastwoods contention
that a local official recommended
ton one way or the other would
have no weight with the state
board; that they would issue the
license anyway.
He recalled taking this question
up with former Mayor Kaufman.
However. other commissioners
said they felt the state men Tin

but that there should be re-
striction on the number of taverns
to be permitted in the city.
Cain said he would be in olym-
pia Wednesday after noon and
would undertake to discuss the
situation with Admiral Luther r
Gregory. chairman Of the state

Council Considers
Carnival Permits

Six continuous weeks Of carnival
shows in one location may be too
much to ask the neighboring prop
erty owners to bear. the council
concluded Wednesday.
The commissioners had just re-
eeived an application from Ray c.
Roberts post. v. r. W., for per-
mission to conduct . carnival at
So. 18th and L sta. II was referred
to Safety Commissioner EASTWOOD.
Reading Of the application. how
ever. brought out the fact that in
the city clerks office q check had
indicated that accumulated appli-
cations for carnival showings In
April. May and June assured an
almost continuous performance at
the 18th and L sts. location for
elk weeks.
And that" some of them said.
'is too much. Maybe we ought to
limit the use Of any one location
to not more than two weeks"
The answer to the Roberts' post
