national defense investigations
At an adjourned meeting of
the city council Tuesday after
noon, the ordinance providing
for city licenses for liquor
establishments was passed
through the first and second
readings.
Action was speeded on this
matter in order to clear the
way for beer, wine, and liquor
mixing establishments to get
their state licenses by the first
of the year. Final action will
be taken Monday night at a
regular meeting of the council
in the city hall. Heretofore
there has been no city license
for beer and wine retailing.

cause ? or future confusion such
as occurred in this case. The
county clerk's office had nothing
to do with making out the sum
mons, the judge stated when off
the bench.
Anne Dunlea, the sheriff's
clerk, said that it had not been
practice to include addresses
on the Jury summons served per
sonally because many addresses
are obsolete as a result of pros
pective jurors changing their
residences. However, she said,
hereafter the addresses will be
copied on the summons from the
jury list
In court Wednesday, Judge
Vandenberg repeated his instruc
tions to the grand jury to look
into the Smith-Russell case.
Smith was sentenced to five
years in prison for failing to
stop. Judge Vandenberg said
there has been "talk that Smith
got by with something." Best
thing for the jury to do, he said,
is to make a complete investi
gation and file a written report
on what it finds and recommends
about this case.
The judge told the jurors it
was a part of their regular duties
to investigate every public office
as well as the jails and county
farm.
Hammond's was the third
name drawn from the panel for
the grand Juror job. Oscar Camp
bell, drawn first, was not pres
ent. Frank X. Sexton, Great
Northern official, was drawn sec
ond but was excused because of
heavy work at his office.
It happens that still another
Jones is on the grand jury, but
no question has been raised
about his identity. He is James
E. Jones.
