Opinion By Judge Hodge
Revokes License Of
Nome Liquor Store
In District Court yesterday, the
license of the Nome Liquor Store
was revoked in an opinion handed
down by Judge Walter Hodge.
The civil suit, filed by U.S. At
torney Russell Hermann, charged
that the licensee, Jennie W.
Martin, had falsely stated in her
application for a license that no
person other than herself had an
interest in the business, whereas
her son, Thomas Martin, had also
signed the deed to the business,
and a mortgage, as partner.
Judge Hodge’s opinion states, in
part:
“The conclusion is inescapable
that Mr. Martin had . . . interest,
direct or indirect, in the business
for which the license was sought,
and therefore that the statement
... of the licensee was untrue.
“Under the provision of Sec. 35
4-13 ACLA, the City Council is
delegated the right to pass upon
the integrity of the applicant and
the desirability of issuing a li
cense, subject to' final approval by
the Court. It is the plain duty of
the applicant to disclose any in
terest of another in order that the
Council and the Court may deter
mine this important question.”
Emily Boucher, editor of The
Nugget, left Tuesday for Juneau
to attend a meeting of the Terri
torial Library Board, of which
she is the Second Division mem
ber.
The meetings are scheduled for
Thursday and Friday of this week.
Mrs. Boucher plans to return to'
Nome Monday.
