One-Half Of Paducah Saloons May Be Closed
Paducah, Ky., Dec. 3. With the New Year dawn, half of Paducah's saloons may quit business unless the council passes a revised license revoking ordinance. The mayor now holds sole power to revoke licenses, and has done so in two or three cases. A surety company on two bonds paid $800 in forfeiture, and bonding firms refuse further bonds unless real estate security is provided. About half the proprietors cannot meet this. If half the saloons close, the city treasury would lose about $20,000.
