Mr. Bertolone said that was his object, apolo Kised for his last slip, and the licence wai granted,

Regarding the application frņos the Central otel; the Chairman stated that the licensee's

promises had been condemned by the Public Works Department, and the application was for permission to remove into Dew premises in Queen's Road Central. It was necessary that the police should visit the new-premises in such cases and report as to whether they were suitable or not, but in this case no such report was to hand. In view of that fact he thought the application-should-be-adjoorard- for two months.

Mr. Hooper again qime to the rescue He did not think an adjurament was neces Jary; "peither did he see the reason why the Justices should be summoned again. At home it was customary to grant the permit until the old premises were put in a proper condition.
