No Official Notification
 Fly Crosby Say Dealers s
LOCAL LIQUOR MEN CLAIM THEY HAVE BEEN FORGED TO LOOK TO NEWSPAPERS
 FOR INSTRUCTIONS

Protests were being heard here on sn sides this morning from Bridge port liquor dealers whot claim that United States Attorney John F. Crosby has not officially notified them SIS to the progress of the prohibition 6ill and especially the enforcement laws
 Liquor men say that they are now obliged to take their orders from the newspapers as they have never re ceived a single communication from the attorneys office at Hartford.
 It is their claim that the news papers are printing so much about prohibition and the reports are SC conflicting that they do not know where they stand. One minute they are closed they say, and the next they find their neighbor opening his place and they follow suit on some news paper authority.
 Such a course has gone on for four months they say, and nothing def1- nite has been told them. One mar said this morning that he was going to keep open until he received the official word from an authority to close his pIace.
