Liquor Application Instructions Given Gunnison Urges Greater Caution in Making Requests Conform to Law Pierre, April (P) -Applicants for the various types of South Dakota liquor licenses were urged today by George Gunnison, liquor commission chairman, to carefully fill in their application blanks to meet requirements of the control act. "Most of the applications received to date have been improperly filled out. and as a result have been returned unapproved," he said. Gunnison said the principal reason for returning license applications has been the failure of applicants to obtain proper approval from the governing boards of their cities and towns.

The commission chairman said approval of governing boards must be received as follows: In cities and towns application must be signed by the mayor, attested to by the city clerk or city auditor and bear the official city or town seal. In organized towns and villages the application must be signed by the chairman of the board of trustees, attested to by the town clerk and bear the official seal. In unorganized towns in organized townships the application must be signed by the chairman of the board of township supervisors and attested to by the township clerk. In unorganized towns in 1 unorganized townships the application must be signed by the chairman of the board of county commissioners. attested to by the county auditor and bear the county seal.

Another common reason for the return of many applications. Gunnison said, is the failure of the applicant to send the full amount of the license.

Gunnison also said that although licenses may be approved and issued before a bond is filed, applicants cannot sell liquor until their bond has been approved by the state treasurer.
