Anybody who has taken the trou ble to look into the facts knows that when a community has more licens ed beer outlets than can be support ed on a fair and equitable profit basis, then real trouble begins- Out of sheer desperation, if nothing else, the proprietors have a tendency to relax in their observance of the law as to closing hours, drunkeness on the premises and cleanliness- Ae Judge Sandall concludes, “It is far belter to have too few licenses than too many-” Right here in Hastings there are 26 retail beer licenses in tffee. Four have been tendered to clubs; 22 to individual establishments- Vio lation;, of the laws of the state and local ordinances have been relative ly few, particclarly in view of the conditions prevalent in Hastings these last few years That being the case, it occurs to the Tribune that we ought to be wary of granting any more beer lic enses locally Twenty-isx may eventually prove to be too many. Or, in the light of future develop ments, it may prove to be too few But in the immediate future, it seems to us that the number of lic ences now granted ought not to be increased Most dealers in beer are law a biding citizens, proud of their places of business and anxious to see the laws are obeyed- As long as they remain so, they are entitled to make “It is Safe to be Hungry’ at The Sharp Inn Cafe 2421 North 24th Street Watch for the Announcement for future delivery service.
