UPSTAIRS BARS
FOR SUPPLY ONLY
(By Telegraph:)
(Special to "The Evening Post.") DUNEDIN, 20th June. At the annual meeting of the Dunedin Licensing Committee, held a fortnight ago, the committee decided to hold over the question of the granting of licenses to the licensees of half a dozen city hotels until it had considered the matter of upstairs bars. At the adjourned meeting of the committee to-day it was decided to grant the license in each case. In announcing the committee's decision res-pectins upstairs bars, the chairman (Mr. J. It Bartholomew, S.M.) said the hotels concerned had been inspected. It had been represented that these were a necessary convenience to the hotels for servingliquor to guests in the dining-room and also for the supply of liquor to lodgers, as they obviated the necessity of opening the main bars There was no doubt that under the circumstances they were a great convenience, but the committee was of opinion that they should be limited to the supply and not tne coii sumption of liquor.
