James is Tavern May Operate Without License EDWARDSVILLE, April 26 (Special) Judicial sanction of the operation of an unlicensed tavern pending a hearing on an Injunction was granted today by Circuit Judge Mudge, who told Francis Manning, Wood River attorney, that the President Cafe at Wood River could operate with or without a license until after the injunction hearing. An Injunction to restrain Mayor Baker and Chief of Police Stahlhut from Interfering with operation of the place was granted several weeks ago. The mayor asked to have the writ dissolved but no hearing has been held.

Today Manning pointed out that the tavern's license expires April 30 and that if the issue Ms not been decided the city would feel impelled to issue a license. The Judge said that the city could use its own judgment about the license, but could not interfere with its operation until after hearing on the Injunction. This meant, the Judge said, that, the tavern could operate until the hearing whether It had a license or not. ing essentfal part to work that carries If you 1 ai defen se "'FARM HAND EXPERTS BOY 16, General garage work and tunity to learn trade, Temple, Reilley Bros, 92 Broadway.
