MUST SELL LIQUOIt APAIIT
ITN'DKIt NF.W IRISH PLAN
DCRLIK. June 17. Tho Free
StMo Is about to handle tho nneit-
tlon of the drink traffic; Thero
are IR.000 hor.fes In 'the Free
State licensed to sell drink and
some very small towns have as many
as 70 saloons. It Is not proposed to
diminish the number of these II-'
censes. as It Is recognized by thoi
government that it ought to pay
compensation for . extinguished '
licenses. !
The government llconslng bill will
not be dnutlc enough to satisfy!
the tempcranco party. It dealu.
principally with the open hours
which will be from !) a. m. till 10
p. m. except on Saturdays whon
the hour of closing will ho 9 p.
m. All clubs are ptit on the Kirac
footing as public houses.
The most controversial of the
opposed reforms la that which com.
pels the sale of drink to be car-
ried on separately from the sale of
other articles. It Is a unlvorsal
practice in Ireland to have shops
which sell over the ?amo counter
drink groceo. and sonietlmos
clothes and hardware. Lnder the
terms of tho government bill the
drink traffic and the publican's
other business must be conducted
In separate compartments each In
a npeclal portion of the premlana
with a separate entrance. This is
vigorously opposed by tho licensed
trade which declares that tho ne-
cessary reconstruction of premises
would cost the trade over 120-
000000. .j.
