S u b ject; Sale o f liq u o r in general merchandise stores Los Angeles, C a l., December 16, 1907. Mr.C .0 .Whittemore. P r e s i d e n t , Los Angeles, Cal. Dear S ir : [if!j The con tracts fo r sale o f lo t s in Las Vegas tow nsite ana the deeds tra n s fe rrin g such lo t s have a clause r e la t iv e to tne sa le o f in to x ic a tin g liq u o rs . I was advised a few days ago that Mr.Levy, who has a general merchandise sto re in Las Vegas, had been r e t a ilin g liq u o r , and i t was my r e c o lle c tio n that th is was permissable by any one on any l o t in the town, provided i t was not sold by the g la ss or over a bar. I fin d , however, that the deeds provide -it s h a ll only be sold by w h olesalers, so that dealers in gen era l merchandise would not be allowed to s e l l b o tt le goods except in w holesale q u a n titie s . Please advise me i f th is is your understanding. I also wish you would advise what is meant by "h o te l” , which is also mentioned in the same clause.
