J F Reddy of Medford, filed an Ini
tiative petition for a constitutional
amendment, which, if adopted, will
result In many "open towns" in Ore
gon. Ills measure proposes an amend
ment to the section of the constitu
tion relative to municipal corpora
tion. The purpose is to give cities
exclusive authority to license, regu
late or suppress race tracks, pool
rooms, theaters, saloons and similar
places.
The effect of this amendment, if
adopted, would be to divest sheriffs
and district attorneys of the power to
suppress poolrooms, Sunday saloons
and Sunday theatres and give munici
pal authorities power to run a town
as wide open as they desire. The
cuustltutlon now provides that city
charters must be "subject to the con
stitution and criminal laws of the
Btate." The amendment proposed by
Mr. Reddy leaves out this important
clause.
