SPECIAL LIQUOR REPORT.
The special committee on liquor
made the following report, which
is made a part of the general re
port: Gentlemen:
Your committee appointed t o
consider the advisability of recom
mending change of Liquor Com
mission Ordinance by which retail
Liquor Licenses are denied, in the
County of Kauai, ,beg to report
that we have made prettv general
inquiry as to public sentiment in
jthe matter, and find that the over-
whelming conviction is that the
present policy of granting a limit
ed number of wholesale licenses
and no retail licenses be continued,
with the request that, if possible,
the delivery of liquor to customers
be prohibited.
There is. we believe, no assur
ance that "blind pigs"would cease
t o , exist i f retail- licenses were
granted, and in addition we would
have the notorious evils of the open
saloon, treating, brawls, etc. Per
haps, if we had a thoroughly effi
cient police, those places could be
kept in order, but with existing
inefficiency they would be plague
spots of corruption.
(Signed)
