To the Honorable Mayor and Common Council, City of Rochester. Gent lemon: There being an ordinance now which prevento the sel]_ing of malt beverages, containing 3.2 percent alcohol, upon the second floors of any business place in Rochester, and it now appearing that since such ordinance, the sale of intoxicating liquors has become legalized in this city, I would like to urge that the above mentioned ordinance be amended to permit the sale of malt beverages in business places occupying the second fioor. I have operated a bawling alley in your city for the past two years, and have attempted, and I believe'succeeded, in conducting a very modern, orderly, and efficient place of business. Ml y season, due to the nature of tie business, is short, and I find that during the bowling season. there is a great demand for beer. I realize that the ordinance was adopted to eliminate possible disorders, to which the law enforcement department might have difficulty in keeping in check, because of the fact that proper observation would be difficult. .However, it seems to me that a bowling alley, or other recreational center, might well be eliminated from this ordinance without being detrimental in any way to law and order. I em supmitt,ing this letter, not in the spirit of condemnation of the ordinance, but, ae a suggested improvement. Yours very- truly, H. H. Sanders.

A communication from the State Board of Health asking that the enclosed proposed ordinance be adopted thereby placing in effect the State plumbing code, were each read, and Piesi'dent Liddle referred the same to the Building Electrical and Plumbing Inspector, the City Engineer and the City Attorney: The City Clerk called attention to the opinions written by Ambrose Fuller, Attorney for the League of Minnesot& Municipalities, vider heading *Workmen's Compensation under the F.E.R�A. * in the May issue of"Minnesots Municipaji, ties",and read Mr. Fuller's "Summary and Conclusions-* which were as follows: " S02NARY AND CONCLUSIONS The above review considers some of the important matters in connec- tion with employment and the F.E.R.A. The first conclusion is that workmen engaged in public work as a condition for receiving aid, either by voluntary application and acceptance or by necessity as a condition precedent thereto, from state or federal funds set &aide for that purpose under the state and federal Emergency Relief Administration do not have the status of employes under the Minnesota Workmen's compensation act for the following reasons: 1: The local government does not select, hire, discharge or control these workers in any way. ' 20 It does not provide the money for or pay over compensation to the workers, or fix their relief requirements or rates of pay. 3: There is no contract of employment that the worker can enforce in any respect against anyone: ' 4. The whole FE.R.A: program is clearly end entirely one of relief to persons legally entitled to assiirasnae Liability in the last analysis will have to be determined by the supreme court, and until boa -liability is established'the local governing bodies should take some precautions to insure the liability and protect themselves. Insurance while expensive may be carried at the option of the Municipslit;t: If these people , are' notcovered by insurance, it is impractical to elect not to be bound under the act 182 I �Y Assuming liability or accepting the possibilities of liability, the municipalit ie`a malcompel eopl a on S. E. R• A. projects of local origin to elect not to be bou#d by the act. This Vitl make the muni- cipality lisbile only for its own negligence. With the cooperation of the state this could be done in justice to all cases: The local commnunit iel are now repponsible to the people who would be employed for their necessities, and continue so during the time of injury and the continuance of resolts thereof: This should be f6ir to all concerned and is recommended until the question of liability is settled as describ- ed above.'
