WOMEN DRINKERS
AN UPSTAIRS ROOM INSPECTOR SPEAKS OUT A protest against hotel licensees encouraging women to drink on their premises was made by Inspector J. W. Hollis at to-day's quarterly meeting of the Auckland Licensing Committee. THE inspector said that all hotels in the central police district had been satisfactorily conducted with the exception of the Imperial Hotel, Fort Street- Women were encouraged to go there, and were supplied with liquor in rooms upstairs. From the moral point of view, he did not think it right for women to spend money on beer. The chairman of the committee (Mr. E. C. Cutten, S.M.) said that the committee could only say what it had said before —it did not favour the selling of liquor to women. .
