The statute further provides: "Sec. 19x1.111. No clttb shall lie granted a Class "B" Permit un- der this chapter .. . "b. If it is a proprietary club, or operated for pecuniary profit.,' The Articles of Incorporation of the Tavern Beepers' Association of Dubuque, Io?va, stabmitte d with the application provides, ninon; other things: "Article III. The membership of this corporation shall be com- posed of sttch persons as may Prom time to time be admitted as members iu good standing as set forth in it?e icy-laws of the Tavern Beepers' Association for I~u- buque, IOwa." "Article IV.

Fttr.dt Ec ?`,`agnall's Standard I3ic- tiottarY defines, "proprietary, the state or fact of being an owner; proprietorship; o ,ti•nership." The gnestiota as to v,'hether or not this corporation meets all of the necessary recittiretnents is for the Catuxcil. A failtare to meet any such regnirement results in a clet.ial of the Applicatiott. "Sec. 1921.111. No Cltab shall be gt•?ntecl a Class `°B" Permit un- der tiffs chapter . "c. tiiul°s it is incorporated ender the iu.','s of the State of ~-.,.. ~ ~~~ , ,,. 62 Special Session, ~'Iarch 22nd, 1~~13 Icwa, and its charter is in full force and effect, and/or excepting regularly chartered branches of nationally incorporated organiza- - tions." You will observe that the applica- tion provides: ° "1. Name of Corporation: Tav- ern Keepers' Association No. 1." ` Article I of the Articles of Incor- poration provides: "The name of this Corporation is the Tavern Keepers' Associa- tion of Dubuque, Dubuque Coun- ty, Iowa." Therefore, the application is not made by the same entity as that in the Articles of Incorporation. Sec. 1921.111. No Club shall be granted a Class "B" Permit un- der this Chapter .. . d. Unless such club has a pei°- manent local membership of not less than fifty adult members, e. Unless the application for such permit is approved by a ma- jority of the bona fide members of such club who are Present at a regular meeting, or a special metting called to consider the same. f. Unless it was in operation as a club on the first of January, A. D. 1934, or being thereafter formed, was in continuous opera- tion as a club for at least two years immediately prior to the date of its application for a Class "B" Permit. In an opinion rendered by the Attorney General of the State of Iowa, on April 30, 1937, it is stated: "It is our opinion that no club can be granted a Class "B" Per- mit under the existing beer law unless it complies with all of the requirements set out in Sections a, b, c, d, e, and f of the above quoted Section of the Code. The language of the statute is clear in its requirements that each of the above sub-sections is to be met." Upon failure to meet any of the above sections the Council is pre- cluded from granting a Class "B" Permit. The application as presented omits answers to the following questions: "6. Purposes for which club was formed and is being maintained?" "14. If formed after that date, has it been in continuous opera- tion as a club for two years im- mediately prior to the date of this application?" "16. Is there attached hereto a. certified copy of this resolution approving this application and a copy of the Articles of Incorpora- tion?" "Sec. 1921.112. APPLICATION. Every club desirous of obtaining a Class `B' Permit shall make a ~:•ritten application therefor, exec- uted by its president and attest- ed by its secretary or other sim- ilar officers performing the duties usually performed by a president or secretary Fvhich application shall state under oath: a. The naive of the club and the location of the premises oc- cupied by it. b. The names of the officers of said club. c. That the buildings occupied by said club are wholly within the corporate limits of the city or town to which such application is made. d. The Purposes for which such cluh was formed and is main- tained, and the number of the bona-fide members thereof regu- larly paying dues. e. That the application for such permit was approved by a ma- jority of the bona-fide members of such club present at a regular meeting or at a special meeting called to cansider the same." I do not believe that an answer to question 14 and question 16 is required by the statute, but an ans- wer to question 6 is required by the statute. Under Section 1921.118 herein cited, it is the duty of the Council: "to make a thorough investiga- tion to determine the fitness of the applicant and the truth of the statements made accompanying the application." Before the application can be granted, the applicant must meet ALL of the requirements of the statute hereinabove set forth, and upon a failure to meet any one of the said requirements the applica- tion must be denied. Yours truly, JOHN J. KINTZINGER, City Solicitor. Councilman Mm'phy moved that the opinion of City Solicitor Kint- zinger be received and filed. Sec- onded by Councilman Thompson.

I3onor•able iVIayor and City Council, City of Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: In regard to the Ap- pliction of the Rocl ~. Gun Club for• Class "B" Beer Permit for Private Chtb which has been referred to me, the lajv governing the granting of such permits is in my report to this Council of this elate on the Ap- plication for Class "B" Beer Per- mit for Private Club of the Tavern Keepers' Association No. 1, to which reference is hereby matte. Attached to the papers is a cea•- tiflcate of the Rocl ~°~ Gun Club showing that the following resolu- tion vas passed on January °, 1945: "Be It Resolved, that the ofFicers of the club be and they are here- by authorized aucl instructed to anal.e application for all Federal, State and City licenses relative to selling beer and for any aucl all other licenses necessary to main- tain the club moans for the use and i~enefit of the members at 1105 Iowa Street, Dubuque, Iowa, anti they as e further authorized and empoivex•ed to execute any auct all instruments in coauaection with the making of such applica- tion for licenses and the securing of permits." It is provided by the statute, aanong' other things as follolvs: "Sec. 191.112, APPLICATION e. That the application for such permit was approved by a majority of the bona-fide anent- bers of such club present at a regular meeting or at a special meeting called to consider the same." The resolution as submitted, fails to show that the Applicatimi for the above permit was approved by a majority of the bona fide members present at such meeting, a,nd, thea•e- fore, fails to meet with this pro- vision of the statute. Report as submitted by the Chief of Police provides: "A ntmiber of the persons whose names are listed as mem- bers were interviewed by Captain Det•reberry and myself. lu a lea°ge nun;ber of. cases, it has been faurcl tixai persons whose names are listed as members are un- av;are of same and disclaim mem- bership or any lcnotvledge con- cerniug above club. A number of others stated they planned to be members, but, however, kue~v very little concerning same. I could not learn from persons in- terviet~-ecl of any meetings hav- ia_g been held, of axiy benefits to be derived therefrom other than being fua•nished a l:ey Permitting tLem access to baa•-room. "Also, it appears that this Club 5=,-ill be operated for pecuniary profit to a few." This renoa•t casts doubt upon the taaeaat?}ership of the Club and a.lsa the ~nuposes for which it is oper- ated. It is for the Council to de- teamine the truth of the statements oracle accor.panying the Applica- tion. A failure to have the regtaired n..xaataer of members prevents the aB3proT,>al of the application.
