PERSONAL TAX
 LAW CONDEMNED
County Commissioners to h. quire if Aei is Constitutional.
ARE TO WITHHOLD PAYMENTS
Fear Large Number of Arrests Might Result in sankruptey-Anima Discussion at Meeting of
 Officials at Hartford.

Hsrtford.-The county commission CTS of the various counties in the state put another dent in the personal tax law by voting that no payments will be made to cities and towns for labor done by any person who may be sent to the jails of the state for Ren-pay- ment of the personal tax until such time as Attorney General Light shall render an opinion as to the eonstitu- Gonality of the law.
 This action was taken after some what animated discussion of the mat ter at a meeting of the County Com missioners association at the Allyn house County Commissioner Jacob D. Walter of New Haven county was in the chair.
 One part of the personal tax law reads as follows:
 Any person committed to jail un- der the provisions of the section shall be required to do such work as his physical condition may allow and shall be discharged when his labor at the rate of one dollar day shall amount to said tax and interest and costs. taxed as in criminal cases, and including also the sum of two dollars and twenty four cents per week for board during such commitment and thereupon the county commissioners shall pay to the treasurer Of the municipality from which the delin- euent was committed the amount of such tax, together with the costs tax ed by the authority committing such delinquent"
 400 Mloht be Committed.
 Throughout the state the average costs taxed where a man has been found guilty of violating the personal tax law Is S650 This with the tax of g would mean that the person sent to tail would be required to stay in iail for about 12 days and during that 12 days the county would be obliged to pay the committing town or city the sum of &S.6o and board the delinquent in tho meantime.
 The commissioners declared that 1t was within the possibilities that q county might have in it's care 100 or g00 delinquents, for which 1t must pay the cities and towns and take it's chances in getting back part of 1t by the prisoners labor. Such a situation might readily lead to the bankruptcy of the county, If carried to the ex- treme. One case in Middletown was referred to where man was taxed costs of $42. The Middlesex county commissioners declared that they did not know what would happen to the county's finances If the county had hundred or SO like him to keep, for under the law the county must pay the town in cash for the costs after an equal amount of labor had been performed by him.
