COUNTY COMMISSIONERS HAVE
 QUESTIONS FOR THE LAWYERS

Judge Fillmore $ Banks Of Fairfield. T. F. Carmody of Waterbury, and Judge William P Henne.r Of Hartford are to De asked by the county com n1issioners of the state to interpret the act passed by the legislature Of 1919, which relates to liquor licenses and prohibition. The commissioners Of the state met in Hartford this week and voted to engage the three lawyers named to interpret the act and the powers and duties or the commission CTS under if. Consequently any action taken By th., commissioners of the state un-sr the act, will be in accord ance with what the lawyers advise.
 The commissioners have not been advised as to whether the lawyers would accept the service required of them to interpret tine act. If they consent. the expectation is. that there will be another meeting of the com nissfoners to frame the many ques- tons on which they want advice. War time prohibition became effective on July 1. The commi missioners want to know whether holders Of licenses arc entitled to a refund ef a part of the license fee they paid the commission CTS for a~ license to, run one year. Many of these licenses under which dealers had to suspend operation, ex- pire next Monday. Another question. is whether the commissioners. in view of the wartime prohibition being in force. have the right to issue a re-
 
 applied for renewals. In some Of the towns which had been no license there will be license after Monday. The commissioners want to know whether they have the right to issue licenses in those towns as applications have been filed for licenses.
 Connecticut is one of the three of the forty eight states of the Union that failed to ratify the eighteenth amendment, New Jersey and Rhode Is- land being the others. So far as the Ia ws of this state are concerned. it is legal to sell liquor but the war time prohibition puts a ban on the sale Of liquor here. and when prohibition un- der the eighteenth amendment becomes effective next January. it will be illegal to sell liquor> in Connecticut.
 The legislative act of 1919- is gen. orally regarded to have been loosely drawn, in view of other statutes relat- ing to the sale of liquor on the statute books. t
