The brush company aided local trade by their selling methods where in cases par ties could not afford the high prices, they would seek, a lower priced brush at a local store. Beer Closing Hours Chairman Vincent of the license committee reported th&t his commit tee met with the Judiciary committee on Saturday and that a recommend ation had been prepared governing the closing hours for beer taverns and places where beer might be sold. The recommendation as read, sign ed by all three members of the license committe and one of the Judiciary committee members provided that beer taverns would open for business at 6 a. m. on all days except Sunday, Memorial day and Christmas when the sales would not be allowed until twelve o'clock noon. That all beer places close their bars and the sale of beer at midnight on all nights ex cept Wednesday and Saturday when they would close at 1 a. m. Mr. Vin cent moved and Mr. Brlttaln second ed the adoption of the recommenda tion which had It carried would have been followed by the necessary amendatory ordinance. The roll call on the vote to adopt the report was as follows: Aye Comstock, Schutz, Vincent, Brittain. Nc Webb, Hall, Tippens, Rebal. Not Voting Puis, Vroman. Not having received a majority vote of the council the recommenda tion was declared lost by Mayor Lushinsky. Mayor Lushinsky expressed him s'elf that he favored closing hours as trouble had come in most places after twelve o'clock. Councilman Webb stated that the great evil of minors securing drinks was as great before midnight as after. No minors should be served in these places and ordinances to that effect should be enforced at all hours. If minors are found in the beer places then the licenses should be revoked where sales made. The city collects a high tax and he believed that the licensees should have a full chance to secure their share of business In competition with others. He favored a state wide uniform regulatory clos ing hour law on all beer places, j Councilman Tippens. who had vot ed against the closing hours, also favored a state law for the closing hours and as long as other towns were open the drinkers could easily go there in cars If places closed at home. Councilman Comstock stated that it might be possible that minors' were served in places before midnight. He also favored a state law and felt that in the illegal sales that the state law should be enforced by county officers as well as the city. Councilman Hall stated that per sonally he was a dry man and had good friends on both sides of the question which he wished to retain. He was in favor of a state law, but if all had voted as he had the prob lem would not be here. Councilman Vroman thought that many of the places themselves favor ed closing hours. Other groups he had talked to favored closing danc ing at midnight in places. City Attorney Davis stated that as the ordinance stood it was diffi cult to secure a conviction on sales to minors as it provided that the per son must be known to be a minor by the licensee. At the time the ordi nance had first been presented he had urged that the responsibility be placed on the licensee but this had been defeated. Councilman Webb inquired If the jtate law did not place the respon sibility equally on the party buying as well as that making the sale. Mayor Lushinsky stated that the HOME LOANS To buy, build or improve made easy, in long term, 5 to 1 5 years to suit, with rent-sized payments. PHOMPT O.OSIXG SO COMMISSION SO SIlAlli: PURCHASES HEdVIHED Nebraska City Federal Savings and Loan Association police would be instructed to check on possible sales to minors in beer places and where the minors are served that the parties making the sale be brought up for action on their li censes. The mayor stated that he had no objection to legitimate drinking by anyone, but favored the closing hours, the council having decided otherwise the matter would be hand led as it stands. Committee Reports Chairman Webb of the tax and property committee reported that lot 10 in block 4, of the city bought by the city was arranged for sale and the committee was authorized to close the deal. Chairman Tippens of the streets, alleys and bridges committee report ed that the bridge in the west part of the city had been repaired. That the committee believed that an ad ditional tile placed on Wintersteen hill would be better than to try and repair the present culvert. He also reported that a sanitary sewer on South 6th street had been placed In proper shape. Mayor Lushinsky stated that the matter would be taken up with the members of the sewer district. Chairman Schutz of the lire and water committee reported that he had no report on the matter of water complaints. Mayor Lushinsky report ed that he had taken the matter up with the Packing company and they would notify the water company when in prospect of large water consump tion so that mains might be flushed and auxiliary tanks filled. Councilman Vroman reported that he had seen several of the physicians of the city in regard to placing chains for parking places, but the most of them seemed to prefer the placing of signs. Chairman Puis of the finance com mittee presented a resolution trans ferring $100 from the general to the gasoline tax fund. The council heard a short discus sion of compensation Insurance, a representative of St. Paul Mercury In demnity Co., being present. He told the council that all companies had the same rates and regulations fixed by boards for the handling of in surance and it was largely a matter of the agency through which it was wished to handle the matter. He con ferred later with the councilmen in formally. Councilman Webb made a report of the progress of the work on the Sixth street sewers and what changes were necessary to make the job one that would prove efficient. On mo tion the additional work contracted for was unanimously approved. The following bills were allowed by the council: Iowa-Nebr. Light & Power Co., street lights $246.91 Iowa-Nebr.
