COUNCIL MUST FACE THE
LICENSE ISSUE
tEduorisI In MInnss polls Morning I


Disposition Of the only available liquor license In Mime
apols a matter for the entire council TO decide.
II member Of the council 10 bring the ques
the floor Of the council Friday for showdown the
present system That system has been based tradition
instead Of and opens the whole liquor industry in this
city TO corruption.
The immediate question will be whether Anthony y.
Cassus will be given the license. Cassus application
lacks the approval Of 10th Sixth Ward aldermen Alderman
Buckley has given his essing 10 the CAssus ap
cation Alderman Hendricks who originally gave his approval
10 the application. has withdrawn his approval.
Alderman Buckley suggests that Cassius shop around
among the present license holders In Minneapolis and buy out
other place IL he wants n license.
What About Hickman?
Why doesn't that same advice apply 10 Police Capt.
Hickman whose application for the vacated license has
been approved by Buckley
Inc license open. II il the ctys license It
up the council TO that 10 respectable citizen
regardless Of what fixtures involved
Behind the refusal Of these aldermen 70 approve the
Cassus application custom. which has basis In Law,
that the applicant for vacated liquor license buy out the
Cassus does not need the fixtures In the place which
closed He already has fixtures he in the liquor
business
To demand that he buy the fixtures in order 10 get
the would be eorOn carried out by the elected repre-
sentatives Of the people.
The only defense the council members offer for their
position Ia that they are protecting the convicted former
holder Of the license against bankruptcy.
That argument In bunk!
There companies In Minneapolis willing and able 70
buy those fixtures they have any real value Those com
panes win not pay the ransom price some applicants for
liquor license win pay.
Bot the fart remains there q market for fixtures
The real issue In this Ia not the disposition Of
liquor license The real issue whether Minneapolis II going

Il Is this issue which sefrespecting eouncrnen must
face when they meet Friday.
Let the eounemen stand and be counted this issue
