by a single Negro citizen in Min
neapolis. He urged that Jones be
granted license after telling the
committee he appreciated the
problems which they faced in try
ing to be fair.
L. Howard Bennett, former
municipal judge and civic and
political figure made a fine pre-
sentation for Jones, tracing some
of the economic handicaps which
face a Negro who seeks to enter
a business. He urged the commit
tee to vote to grant the requested
license.
Benefits remarks were called
irresponsible" by Alderman Farnlz
Moulton who claimed Bennett in
jected the race question.
Bennett replied that he did not
inject the race question, but only
referred to it because he felt it
was part of any consideration
which the Jones application would
receive.
Benefits position was defended
by Cecil e. Newman, newspaper
publisher who told the committee
and the audience that anybody
who believed race did not figure
in any application sought by a
Negro was kidding himself.
He addressed his remarks to
Moulton and McGregor who had
tried to show race did not enter
into the decision to be made on
the application. Actually Moul-
tons outburst at Benefits con-
vincing statements opened up the
race question.
Race had already figured when
Jones showed he sought to serve
a portion of the liquor needs of
the segregated Negro community
and that the only spot in the pres
ent patrol limits near the COM
munity which he could secure was
the block in which he sought the
license.
Jones attorney, Henry H. Felix
ema was interrupted twice by
committee councilmen when he at
tempted to rebuilt the statements
Of opponents to the granting OF
the license. He finally resigned
himself and ended his argument.
All others on each side of the
issue were given a full hearing.
All opponents to the license also
denied Jones race was a factor in
their opposition.

Fezzan Temple is headed by VIII
liam D. McAdams.
The convention is viewed as one
Of vital Importance for Shriners
whose theme is, New Frontiers
in leadership. Plans now call for
discussion and action in six areas.
These were listed as: Cementing
of outlines for Shrine leadership
in human relations, economic
growth and security for minority
citizens, fulfilling of democracy's
pledge to all peoples in all areas
of the nation, the projection of
wider health measures to include
older citizens, a concern with seq
regation in education and the ad-
vancement of education for all,
and the problems of young people.
In addition to a thorough study
of the continuing Voter-Registra-
ton Campaign now in its seventh
year, the Shriners are expected to
consider at least four other basic
problems affecting the more than
1S million Negroes in the United
States. These were pointed out as
housing and urban renewal, educa-
ton and training, health and en-
ployment.
The August 8, edition Of this
paper will be a special Shriners
edition and will contain full pro-
gram and calendar of events for

Council Committee
Denies Jones Off,
Sole License

The Minneapolis city license
committee unanimously voted to
deny the application Of Willard
Jones, 1891 Portland Av., for q
license to operate an off-sale
liquor store at 1914 Fourth Av. s.,
Wednesday.
The motion to deny was made
by Alderman Arnett Leslie and
passed with q voice vote which
was apparently unanimous.
Appearing against the applica-
ton was Rev. Henry Soltau who
presented a petition which he
stated was signed by business men
and residents of the area around

uor store
Also opposing were representa-
tives of the Central Lutheran

cation sought and q representa-
tive of the Loring- -Nicollet Bus
iness Development Assn.
The latter read a list Of affiliat'
ed groups covering most of the
Minneapolis central Southside
which he claimed were opposed tt
the granting of a license.
Rev. Soltau and the group from
Central Lutheran stated the neigh
borhood was deteriorating anc
that there was already too much
drinking in the area. Cited were
seven taverns in the area and the
fact that the area Is fast becom'
ing "a skid row."
Rev. Walter Lee Battles, Of
the House of Refuge, a mission
church, q block from the pro-
posed cite made two talks
against the license, In which he
described how he pastored two
Twin City churches costing
$65,OOO.
Rev. Battles stated only thu
poor people came to his church
on Fourth Av., and that he fel
that a liquor store would harm
the neighborhood. After describ
ing a trip he made to Rome h,
threatened to leave Minnesota 1
he did not get more financial sup
port for his churches.
He stated he put $500 a montl
out Of his own pockets in his twt
congregations to keep them going
and reiterated he was against tn,
granting Of the license even If h,
had to go against some OF tn,
Negro leaders who were there II
support Of Jones.
Speaking for Jones and his ap
plication for a license was A. B
Cassius, civic leader and a caft
and bar owner, whose own figh
ten years ago to obtain an on
sale license attracted NATIONWIDE
attention and caused a change II
license patterns.
