According to the computa tion made by Huperlntende nt Earber of the Iowa anti-saloon I'Sfrue, the decision of the supreme court In the Moon law esse means the Immediate closing of saloons In Iowa. The total now Is 795 and there will be 575 left In operation If the law Is found to apply to the charter cltlea whli-h sre not mentioned in the law. Klve 3 ears ugo there were over 3.000 saloons In the stste and the reduction has been by reason of the mulct law snd the change in public sentiment. All saloons existing In Iowa cities of the first and second clas In exceas of the one to 1.000 rstlo fixed by the Moon law, must close Immediately. This wss the ststement this afternoon of Nels J. Lee, speclsl counsel, from the office of Oeorga Cosson, attorney general, who ays that In all cities the saloons are operstlng under petitions of consent ap proved since April IS, I5f Xo Partnership Saloona. taloona owned by partnerships and corporations are In direct violation of the Iowa stats law, according to an opinion handed down by Judge Lawrence De Graff of tha equity division of the dis trict rourt here todsy. More than 1,000 satoens In the stats will be sffected by the ruling, If it is sustained by the su preme court, to which the liquor Interests will appeal It, Judge Pa Oraff withheld his decision until tha supreme court had rendered Its opinion on the Moon lew, which limits saloons to one for every thotissnd popu lation. This law was sustained yester sy. The case before Judge Ps Graff was filed by the AntllSaloon forces against fifteen saloon partnerships in Pea Moines. The court Interprets the Moon lay to mean that a license to sell liquor msy be granted to one Individual for each 1,000 Inhabitants. By "Individual-' Judge Pe Oraff says the Isw means one rxraon and not a cor poration or partnership. The court holds It was tha Intent of the law lo fasten the responsibility of operating a saloon upon one person and that this cannot ha dona when the saloon Is operated by more than one Individual.
