Law Tightens Rules on Clubs and Saloon Trade
The act expands penalties for unregistered clubs and gives courts wide discretion to deem a club a sham. It notes four to five thousand workingmen's clubs in the United Kingdom, most legitimate, but many will be forced to reform or close. Provisions target licensed houses with duties to prevent drunkenness and bars sale to habitual drunks. A protection order can shield a wife from a habitual drunkard husband, reflecting equal rights for spouses in such cases.
