Sir:
laIn returning. here\vith House File No. 910 without Iny approval.
I cannot see 111'Y way clear to give approval to this 111easure
allowing Hihbing to extend hours for on-sale liquor places fr01J1
111idnight to 1 :00 a.Bl. on week days and fr0111 1 :00 a.l11. to 2 :00
2~74

01" 'rHI'; HOUSE.
[75th Day
a.ll1. on Saturdays. I recognize that there is SOllle justification
for the clainl that a 111unicipality such as Hibbing should be
entitled to have the later closing hours pennittecl in cities of the
first and second class. I do not think, however, that ,ve are going
to help the situation by passing another act setting up a special
privilege for a specific city as this bill does.
Should this bill be approved, Hibbing would have an hour
later closing tiIne than liquor places in other nearby conlnlunities
on the Iron Range, which, I anl sure, ,"vould add to the difllculties
of regulation. Hibbing's population is equivalent to that of a
third class city, and under this act it would acquire a privilege
,vhich no other third class city possesses. I think we ought to
try to reduce rather than extend differences in regulation. The
tin1e is cOIning when ,ve Blust endeavor to work out changes
that ,vill make our liquor laws nlore nearly unifornl in application. Adjushnent of closing hours by all 1neans should be done
by generalla'v rather than specific acts.
Respectfully yours,
LUTHER W. YOUNGDAHL,
Governor.
:Mr. D'Aquila 1noved that the Veto l\1essage be laid on the table.
\Vhich illotion prevailed.
