Defends the Board Against Anti-Saloon League Criticism
Assessor Darneille, chairman of the excise board, defends liquor license rulings as honest and just. He says protests by residents and property owners are considered and cites mandatory rejection when a majority protests a renewal. He argues the current board administers the excise law conservatively and rejects changes to separate boards.

District Commissioners Bill Opposed by DC Officials
The District Commissioners favor to Chairman Gallinger a report urging adverse action on Senate bill 4031 to raise the board size to seven. They argue no general demand or grave reason, warn it would complicate duties, expand administration and salaries, and violate the district’s organic act and self government principles. They cite the need for small executive boards and centralized authority.

Director of Insurance Thomas E. Drake urged passage of a new bill to regulate District industrial assessment life insurers.
