A a -- -- Page Six THE HAILEYBURIAN THURSDAY, APRIL 6th, 1944 Sold Bottled Beer Over Ceiling Price; Vendors Pay Fines Hotelkeepers From Matachewan in Court Here; Price Was Twenty-Five Cents Fines were imposed on the proprietors of three hotels in Matachewan when they appeared before Magistrate Atkinson here last Friday on charges of selling beer in their beverage rooms at prices over those that were "rea- sobable and just," with specific reference to those charged during the basic period, September 14- October 11, 1941. J .C. Bergeron and R. A. Bedard each was fined $25 and costs, which amounted to $€.15 apiece, and S. Crowe $15 and costs of $18.75 The two latter pleaded guilty after evidence had been heard in the Bergeron case. According to the Crown, represented by J. A. Legris, K.C., pint bottles of beer were sold by defendants at 25 cents each, whereas under the basic period rates these should have been 21 cents. It was stated by Bergeron that he had sold all brands, except three specials, for 21 cents in the basic period. but that since last November all had been charged for at 25 cents, the three proprietors agreeing. In the case of Crowe, the court was told, he was sold out when the inspectors from the WPTB visited his hotel, but two other witnesses were on hand to testi- fy, if required, which accounted for the higher costs, and also the lower fine, in his case.
