Baffled by Old Beer Signs Seek City Help
The excise board failed to secure removal of beer signs on former saloon properties and appealed to the police. Superintendent Sylvester reported no law to compel sign removal, likely sending the matter to the corporation counsel. The board acts against signs tied to near beer sales, seen as misrepresentation since near beer contains under 2 percent alcohol and needs federal licensing.

Rate raise denied by Interstate Commerce Commission
The ICC on Wednesday declined to approve Western railroads plan to raise the minimum shipment weight for fresh meats packing house products and other food commodities by 2000 pounds from 10000 to 12000. The commission ruled the higher minimum would cause a material increase in transportation costs and be unreasonable under current shipment conditions, ordering cancellation of weight-increase regulations.
