NO REFUND PRIOR
 TO LICENSE SURRENDER

In letter addressed ito the mayors of cities and 'chairmen of. boards of se- lectmen of towns where liquor licenses are issued. Y E. L. G. Hohenthal. chair man of the Connecticut prohibition committee, declares that no part of the license fee should be refunded for any period prior to the date of the surren- der of the license. Mir. Hohenthal as- serts further that it was never con templated by the legisla ture to refund any fees for any period prior to sur render of licenses or certificates.
 A copy of the letter follows:
 Pursuant to chapter 164. session laws of 1919. the attorney general of the state has notified the county com nissioners that on July B. 1919, it be- came unlawful to sell spirituos and in- toxicatins liquors under any license or club certificate issued by them. and holders of such licenses or certificates were, therefore. entitled to a refund of Incense money.
 ''t desire to direct your attention to section of the act. which says: Upon the surrender of his license by any licensee or by the holder of a club certificate, etc, the commissioners shall reimburse such Iicensee or hold CT in an amount bearing such propor- tion to the total license fee spaid as the unexpired portion of the license year bears to total period for which such license or certificate was grant ed
 The point I wish to sem phas is that no portion or the license fee should be refunded for any period prior to the date of surrender of the license
 Towns are penaiized to the amount Of 1c ra. cent. for failure to pay the county commissioners. upon their re- quest, license money received by your town. I suggest that you protect your town by bringing the matter to the county commissioners prior to their ser'9ing you their request.
 Tt was never contemplated by the Legislature to refund any fees for any period prior to surrender of licenses or certificates. Further late as Aus 10. 1913, the attornev general refused to declare the sale Of liouors unla wfuI despite the fact that Judge Chatfelds decision, which is now quoted as au-
