record against the return of liquor.
The vote was extremely light, as
had been predicted, and neither
side was able to muster the
strength 1t showed last fall, when
at the general election a referen-
dunn on a proposal to memoraiize
congress also was on the baiiot.
The drys apparently felt there was
no chance for them to win, while
the vets were so sure of the out
come as to be unconcerned.
The vote was about Az per cent
of that cast last fall.
New Haven county, traditionally
wet. rolled up the greatest wet vote
the ratio for repeal being more
than nine to one, while it was In
Holland county, where there are no
cities or large towns, that the drys
made their best showing. The ra-
ton there was but three to one
for the vets.
Immediately after the balloting
was completed yesterday evening
Governor Wilbur l.. Cross an
nounced the ratification convention
will be held July II.
The convention will assem- BILE in
the hall of the house of represent
tatives, in the state capitol build
ing here, at IL o'clock, and then
give formal ratification to adop-
ton of the 21st amendment, the
act to repeal the 18th.
The seven towns which remained
under the banner Of the prohibition
lists were Chaplain. Eastford. Scot
land and Woodstock, in Windham
county, and North Stonington, Led
yard and Lebanon, In New London
county. None registered u size
a BILE vote, however. and were lost
in the totals for their districts.
Repeal leaders were jubilant
over the outcome, and were par
ticularly delighted they had re-
pulsed the dry forces In every dis
trict as we'll as in the state al
large. They also claimed that
connecticut, one of the states which
never ratified the 18th amendment
had demanded repeal by the great
est ratio of wet votes over dry vel
recorded for an entire state.

Prince Of Spain
Married To-day
CONTINUED from Page H.
The marrige official, Auguste
Ma fpnt declared the marriage lie.

The marrige Official, Auguste
Mafgot, declared the marriage le-
gal both in Spain and in Cuba.
The bride wore a black fox-fur
coatp black hat and stiff veil. The
prince had on a dark blue coat.
They entered the Hotel De Willie
built in 1854, and sat in chairs be-
fore a simple table covered with
red cloth, while photographers
scrambled around the room taking
flashlights.
A dreary rain was falling. The
simplicity Of the occasion contrast
ed with the courtly splendor to
which the prince once was accus-
toned, 1t more nearly resembled
the marriage Of a movie celebrity
in any American town hall.
The prince appeared healthy
and limped only slightly. 1t was
recalled that when he left Spain
as an exile, he had to be carried
across the frontier on stretcher.
The democratic nature of the
ceremony was evident when the
prince smilingly pushed his way
through the photographers and did
not object when they swarmed
around the marriage table.
Margot asked the witnesses, the
Duke De Almodovar and Madame
Arquilles, sister of the bride, to
sign the register. Then he read a
long list of the princes names and
titles calling him your royal
highness." After calling the brides
name, he asked If each would take
the other as husband and wife
They replied emphatically, "Oui'
and the prince turned to his bride
and smiled.
