Civic Group
Wins Fight on
Liquor Store
ABC Bourd Ordered
To Reopen Case
By Appeals Court

The Districts Alcoholic Bev-
erage Control Board today was
ordered by the United States
Court of Appeals here to re-
open q case involving a liquor
license transfer on Macarthur
boulevard NV.
The decision Of the appellate
court, by a 2-l vote. repre-
scented a victory for the Pail
sades Citizens Association
which, since late 1857 has been
fighting the location Of a liquor
store in the area.
Three Appeals Considered
In considering legal issues in
the controversy. Appellate
Judges Henry Egerton, Warren
Burger and Wilbur X. Miller
had three appeals before them,
The court dismissed all three,
The first case involved an
effort by the citizens associa-
ton to block the granting Of a
liquor license at 5l36 MacAr-
thur boulevard, This case had
been decided against the asso-
citation after District Judge Ed
ward M. Curran said the Or
ganization did not have stand
ing to sue.
The second case-involving
a preliminary injunction grant,
ed by District Judge Luther
w. Youngdahl against transfer
of the license from the old
address to 1881 Macarthur
boulevard - had been appealed
by the ABC Board and Mac
Arthur Liquors. Inc.
The third case before the
Appellate Court related to an
appeal by the association on
Judge Curran's dissolution Of
the injunction granted by Judge
Youngdahl.
In an opinion written by
Judge Edgerton, the appellate
court dismissed the appeal of
the ABC Board and Macarthur
Liquors. since Judge Curran
had eventually ruled in their
favor on the injunction ques-
ton. Also dismissed was the
appeal of the citizens aSsocia-
ton in the case involving the
fight over the granting Of the
original license.
Judge Miller concurred with
this action.
Split Among Judges
However, Judges Burger and
Edgerton split with Judge Mil
Ter in deciding to reverse the

September that voided the ear.

the license transfer case.
In deciding that the Abe
Board must reopen proceedings
in the license transfer case, the
Appellate Court majority agreed
that the board had been "arbi-
trary" in the manner in which
it had determined community
support for and objection to
the license transfer. However,
the court provided that Addy
Basin. operator Of the liquor
store. may continue to stay in
business at the new location
until a new determination in

Board.

posing Of Southwest Washing
ton land to private investors
for redevelopment was urged
today-and at least partly
agreed to by Redevelopment
Land Agency officials.
The demand for a change
came from William T. Hannah,
counsel for Town Center, Inc,
a local investment group backed
by Morris Cafritz. This group
lost a last-minute bid for de-
velopment rights to the South
VESTS Town Center shopping
apartment house project.
The RIA rejected the bid
yesterday, but agreed to boost
the price Of the shopping CEN
ter land to William Zecken-
dorf if an FILA appraisal sets
a higher land value than $3.50
a foot. This price already was
agreed upon with Mr.. Zecken-
DORIS firm. Webb & Knapp.
Monopoly Asserted
In a statement on the RIA
decision, Mr.. Hannah said his
group was pleased that our
efforts have brought to light the
fact of the monopoly held by
Webb & Knapp on 500 acres
of the Districts most promising
land"
He said a drastic change in
marketing the land is indicated
to receive the optimum benefit.
In the end, we feel that we,
with other representative Dis
trict builders and developers,
could DO the job faster and
with more return to the Dis
trict."
John r. Searles. jr., RIA
director, said Webb e. Knapp
has mo such monopoly on 500
acres as Mr.. Hannah claims"
He said RIA intends to follow
through on negotiations with
Webb & Knapp for developing
roughly half of the private
building in the big Area C
project. and that the size OF
these land parcels is "a lot
closer to SO acres than to $780,"
