“Treat ’Em All Alike.” Sault Ste. Marie. Treat all places alike for violations of the beer license provisions Commissioner W.B. Robertson urged at the city commission meeting. He recommended that the license to sell beer be taken away from taverns recently fined by the State Liquor Control Commission for selling whisky.
“If we close one place for breaking the rule we should close all places which break the rule”, said Robertson. Reference was made by the commissioner to Kaiser Maze, Northview Hotel, Herbert Downs, Herb’s Blue Room, Lloyd Woodgate, Ashnum Hill restaurant, and Gould Pappas, Algonquin pavillion.
“Where is the police report on these places”, asked Mayor Laundy “I don’t have any facts before me, and I think that we should have something definite to go by before we take steps to revoke anyone’s license. If we have the records, and it is shown that these places have violated their agreement, I favor taking away their licenses” said the mayor. Action was postponed until the next commission meeting.”
