<br />~ae, sa,td prohably some- form of resolution could he developed for use prior to the July 1
<br />licenSe termination date. ,J1rs:. Camphellsuggested postponement, of action' on the three
<br />clubs-listed (Elks, Eagles-, , Town. Cl-uE}-unt'il,]iJr. Williams ',r,eturn and his c6nrinittee meets,
<br />saying at least the Counc:tl will have attempted to do something about the situation.
<br />
<br />Councilman Mohr noted that Oregon law has no provision with respect to discriminatory
<br />practices except as applies throughout the State to all public places. What this Council
<br />is trying to do is perfect a strong position in this respect. He said he would not mind
<br />holding action on these three applications, but would not like to hold them without
<br />grounds for denying if the committee is not prepared to present such a recommendation.
<br />Me. Hershner commented that even though the committee may meet in time to forward the
<br />applications to the OLCC, it has been suggested ~uDlic- testimony be taken from the
<br />licensees also and that would add to the delay.
<br />

<br />
<br />.Mayor Anderson said he supports the affidavit, but in making it effective it will be
<br />necessary for the Council to have a firm, well thoyght out policy for utilization of that
<br />affidavit. The committee should meet much as the Human Rights Commission has met on the
<br />Affirmative Action Program, obtaining recommendations and holding public hearings, and
<br />he doesn't see how that can be done in the brief time available. He said he thinks at
<br />this point the process should be extended so that whatever policy is developed will be
<br />workable and have full input of combined committee of the Commission and the Council.
<br />
<br />Mrs. Campbell moved seconded by Mrs. Beal to postpone decision on applications
<br />of the Elks, Eagles, and TownCluh.
<br />
<br />Councilman McDonald expressed the opinion that time is of the essence and that he would
<br />rather see a report from the committee and have public hearings; that he feels the Council
<br />would be on firmer ground in withholding action. In reply to Mrs. Campbell's comment that
<br />the three applicants are the only ones requiring membership, Mr. Hershner said it goes
<br />much further than membership, and cited the example of a commercial establishment
<br />charged with instructing waitresses to be dilatory in serving minorities.
<br />
<br />(.
<br />
<br />Mrs. Beal moved seconded by Mrs. Campbell to delay action on the entire group
<br />until the June 12, 1972 Council meeting.
<br />
<br />Mr. Hershner said his vote against the motion would not be indicative of his feeling on
<br />the merits; he doesn't see how the Council subcommittee can meet with the Human Rights
<br />Commission subcommittee, hold public hearings, and develop a well thought out policy by
<br />July 1.
<br />
<br />Councilman McDonald said he is against penalizing all for what just a few are evidently
<br />doi~g ~d fe~l~ there is not enough time to accomplish what is wanted.
<br />
