City to Stand Fvor
"I cannot see any possibility
that the supreme court will turn
its back on the expressed man
date ef the people the home
rule prorision ot the auto con
stitution. Under no circum
stances will we relinaulsh eur
stand."
There kaa been considerable
controversy among apparently
equally responsible legal author
ities as to whether the home rule
act still stands In the constitu
tion. Some believe this provision
was permanently destroyed by
subsequent Hquor legislation, and
others hold that repeal of- later
laws automatically reinstated the
act.
The provision la specifically
Cj noted la the preamble to the
city's new liquor ordinance. It
says "The exclusive power to li
cense, regulate, control or to sup
press or prohibit the sale of In
toxicating liquors therein is heat
ed In such municipality . . . aub
wt so the provisions of the local
option law of the state of Ore
ion.'! Conflicts Noted
The Klamath falls liquor pian
saHs for Out establishment of
privately operated, city-licensed
bottle liquor stores. This is In
direct conflict with the Knox
l..lnn'a MMmmndltiOU tO
Governor Julius L. Meier, pro
posing too establishment ot state
owned liquor stores In Tarions
communities. It has been ru
mored that Governor Meier m to
mbody the commission's recom
mendations in his speech to the
special session of the leslslatare
late this month.
Just what Dr. Knox means by
an "immediate test" was the
cause of speculation here. Com
petent legal authorities pointed
find a basis for a test until the
legislature takes action.
WtU Seek Injnnctioa
Mayor Mahoney said that if the
state should attempt to establish
h. wtiHrt legis-
lative authority, the dry will ask
an injunction to prevent such
salon, standing, efi the constitu
tional rights Indicated in the
home rule law.
Mayor Mahoney win go to
Portland next week to consult
with C. C. Hockley, public works
engineer, and n" there wiU

the Willamette society, a demo
cratic organization, anu wo mo
over the radio. He said he will
n.k nvont Klamath Falls
legislation, and will dwell partic
ularly npoa tns nquor

The ordinance was Jammed
through the local legislative mill
Monday night in anticipation ot
repeal ot the 18th amendment
when six states vote today. Neith
er repeal nor the ordinance, how
ever, can be effective until De
cember 6, when the last ratifica
tion convention meets.
Hanks Introduces BIB
Councilman Marion Hanks in
troduced the ordinance. Some
minor amendments were attached
as the measure sped through the
required readings. The vote was
polled, and it was unanimous for
the measure, all councilmen be
ing present The emergency
clause was attached.
Passage of the ordinance met
with varied reactions Tuesday.
There was some comment on the
street as to whether It Is too
strict, but on the whole senti
' ment seemed to be favorable.
Ralph Horan and Henry Se
mon, state legislators, took time
to consider the question careful
ly before making any statements.
They will leave in a few days for
Balem, where state liquor legis
lation is certain to be considered.
Mrs. Boyd Praises City
Mrs. Frances Boyd, president
of the W. C. T. U., said that she
commended Mayor Mahoney and
the council for the moral features
of the ordinance. She said that,
under the circumstances. It is un
doubtedly a worthy measure. Mrs.
Boyd said, however, that it Is her
belief that the Canadian liquor
plan, after which the local scheme
is patterned, has broken down
completely. She said she had
been In Canada, and had seen evi
dences of this.
Rev. A. Theodore Smith, pastor
of the First Presbyterian church,
said that if liquor must be sold
and consumed, the local plan gave
evidence of a worthy effort to
ward derpnt content
The ordinance prohibits the sa
loon. It excludes liquor purchases
anywhere except at a city-licensed
bottle house. The unopened con
tainer must be taken to the home
before consumption of the con
tents. PIONEER PASSES
