LICENCES REPUSED
itimm IN CANTERBURY QUESTION FOR COURT Press Association CHRISTCHURCH, Friday. Four applications for licences for hotels were refused by the newlyappointed Mid-Canterbury Licensing Committee at Leeston today. The committee heard evidence and legal argument. The chairman, Mr. H. A. Young, S.M., giving the committee’s decision, said the committee Was not satisfied that it had power by law to grant the applications, which would therefore have to be refused. He expressed the hope, however, that the applicants would bring the matter before the Supreme Court or the Full Court. The licensing district of Ashburton, formerly a “dry” district, has now been included jn Alid-Canterbury, which legally is a “wet” district, although in fact nearly half of it, that part which was formerly in Ashburton, is “dry.”
