argued before Judge Brown that his

in spite of the municipal Ordinance.

Walsh's contention was that the mu-
nicipaI ordinance, under which the two
men were tried and convicted. was re-
pealed by the state law Under such
conditions, lie said. their convictions
and the subsequent fines of $500 each
were illegal.
Judge Brown took the point under
