LIQUOR AFTER HOURS
COMPLAINTS IN PALMERSTON POLICE REPORT FAVOURABLE (From Our Own Correspondent.) PALMERSTON NORTH, Tuesday. “There seems to be a good deal of after-hours drinking, especially at those hotels down Main Street, toward the railway station,” commented Mr. J. L. Stout, S.M., at the annual meeting of the Palmerston North Licensing Committee on Monday. “The committee do not wish to pass censure on the police, who are doing their best to keep it down, but there is too much going on, and the committee feels that, if it is not stopped, some drastic remedy will have to be taken.” Senior-Sergeant O’Grady: “I have a list of convictions here of Palmerston North, and this place compares favourably with other parts of the Dominion. There is a lot of talk by people about- after-hours drinking, but these people do not know what they are talking about. They see a man going into an hotel, and think he is going there to drink. People, however, have other business at hotels beside drinking.”
