The fity collector had taken In 5.1.009.84 and the clerk had collected $192.75. The mayor instructed .the fi committee to work h work laid out for ther March 15 was set ast§ dcadlinA for thos^ delinquent on w^ter bjlrs to. make settlements or havettfemeters disconnected. The current bills, amounting to ever $1,000, were read and ordered paid. Discuss License Question The mayor recommended that the tavern license be ?<et at $225 and the license for drug stores, restaurants and clubs be $40 each. Aid. Kreutzer said he didn't see why the restaurants and drug stores should be cheaper than tlve regular tavern license. Aid. Justen thought the mayor's recommendations wevp fair enough. Aid- Sehaefer said thai drug stores should not be allowed to s*ell at $40 a year and cut into the business that the taverns had to pay $200 or more per year. Aid. Barbian said as long as Mky 1 is so close that an ordinance could hardly be passed for the interval up to May 1. Mir. Kreutzer said that $200 is enough for aaloonn to pay. Mr. Sehaefer said, if they don't have a license up to May 1 that $225 for the fiscal year of *34 and '35 would be alright. The motion by Overton, seconded by Wattles, the $25 per month as passed at last meeting, be cancelled, was carried.

Overton, that the tarera license fee for the fiscal year '34 and '35 be $225. Aid. Kreutzer, seconded by Barbian, added an amendment to make the fee $200 for the fiscal year. The vote on the amen<lment was tied and the mayor cast the deciding vote, beating the amendment. On the roll call of the first motion the vote waa four to two for the $225 fee. Harold Gilles spoke to the board along the lines that if the $££& fee was alright that the drug stores tmd restaurants were petting the best of the deal at such low figures. At this point the mayor informed the members of the board and the tavern keepers present that it was the duty of each and every one to report alt speak-easies and blind jHffs to the board so .that a license be obtained or the place closed up. Mr. Gilles told the mayor and the aldermen that they should not expect the tavern keepers to report the bootleggers as he thought it was the duty of the board to eliminate all the bootleg, cheap alcohol and home brew. It was moved by Barbian, seconded by Justen, that the license for firstclass restaurants for bottled beer ordered with food, to be consumed on the premises, be fixed at $40 per year. Motion was carried. It was moved by Overton, seconded by Justen, and carried, that club?, selling sandwiches with bottled beer consumed on premises be granted license at $40 per year.
