"By \ll ■ means, council should over ride the veto', of the mayor and 1 thus adopt the restrictions put on the liquor traffic and raise the licenses as pro posed.” This Is the statement' of Frank P. Rice, president of the board of water commissioners, *a.'promlnent Atlantan, who served In council eleven years, the longest service In the history of the city, with one ezeeptlon. Mr. Rice was a member of the coun cil committee, that helped draw up the compromise ordinance regulating the whisky traffle, .which Is now In force, and which Mayor Woodward so ardent ly advocates. “That compromise ordinance wpn’t do now,” said Mr. Rico, “and I say thjs, despite the fact that I was Instru mental In drawing It up nineteen years ngo. Tho people of today are clamor ing for. new restrictions and a higher license, and these should be .given them. ‘‘Granting a license to a saloon is not like licensing a mercantile nnd other perfectly legitimate businesses. The constitution says the city shnll license mercantile and grocery establishments, and may license saloons. In other words, the liquor license Itself is a privilege. ’’I am not arguing prohibition. With the higher license und the proposed re strictions, fewer police will be necessa ry, and there will he better control. I say tills, too, the adoption of the higher license and these restrictions Is tho solution of the problem, nnd Is the only way to keep olT q prohibition election. "1 commend Mr. Seely for Ills state ment In regard to the position The Georgian takes." Henry S. Johnson, of the Chamber- Iln-Johnson-DuBose Company, ex pressed similar convictions. "To save me," stated Mr. Johnson, "I can’t see how Mayor Woodward figured It out. His veto of the high license ordinance wns most unfortunate, and I certainly hopo cnnnclt will override the veto. The Georgian Is right In the stand It takes. I fully agree with Mr. Seely’s statement." . - George Muse, of Die George Muse Clothing Company, was also seen. “Council, by all means, should over ride the mayor's veto," he said, "and you can't make this statement too em phatic and decisive. ; It’s the plain duty of every councilman to see that the ordinance goes through, regardless of Ills veto, with or without Ms approval.
