Chamberlin Hotel Bar Closed Over Virginia Licenses
In Richmond on August 5 the Chamberlin Hotel announced the bar room would close and the hotel would conform to state law if licenses like ABC permits could be obtained. Manager J Wesley Gardner said without wine and beer licenses or banquet licenses the hotel cannot conform. Governor Peery noted federal authorities are deciding if the hotel is within or outside the law. The ABC board chair claimed the hotel cannot be licensed due to its Federal reservation location. The 1934 wine and beer license was revoked after the hotel sold spirits in- room dining and ran a beverage department. Attorney General Staples said he had not been asked for an opinion on the new angle. Gardner said he would end the controversy if authorities show him how to comply with Virginia regulations.

Potatoes may be added to basic commodities under production controls. The revised tax suit provision bars recovery unless the claimant proves the tax was not passed to the producer or consumer and that the price did not absorb the tax through higher costs.
