Hugh Alcorn Is Latest To Open
 Fire On Rulings
Engaged as Counsel for Milk Dealer Whose License Was Revoked By Board-Appeal Taken-Mas- colo Decision of Two Weeks Ago Still Widely Quoted Around State

and gangsters, has now entered the picture in the statewide milk bat tie. He appears as counsel for the defense and not as states attorney for Hartford county. MT. Alcorn has been engaged to represent the interest of Kent E. stoddard, own or of the Spring Brook Farm Dairy in Newipgton. His license was revoked on September 18th and he was given a months time to quit the business.
 Stoddard lost his license because the board found that he had sold milk for l3 cents Q quart instead of 14 cents, the price established by the board. Through his coun- sel, he served notice on the board members Friday that he had ap- pealed their ruling to the Superior Court. The appeal is, expected to act as a supersedeas to the board s order and stoddard will continue in business.
 The appeal is based on the claims that the boards order re- vokfng the license was unreaaon- able and illegal; that Chapter 226 of the Public Acts of 1898 creat- ing the board Is unconstitutional; that the order Of the board was in- stigated by rivals of Stoddard in an attempt to drive him out of business and deprive him of his only means of livelihood and that the order impairs Stoddard's ob- litfgations under existing contracts with numerous third parties, mak! ing the order unconstitutional and void under Article 1, Section 10, of tho Constitution of the United States.
 The notice of appeal quoted the order of revocation as stating: "Mr. Stoddard is given until Oct ober 13. 1888 to sell or dispose of his business and may operate until such disposition is consummated." This order is unreasonable, arbi- trary and confiscatory and in vio- lation of the Fourteenth Amend ment to the Constitution" the ap- peal said.
 Duo to the public interest in the case, 1t Is expected that the appeal will be heard on its merits within q short time. The attorney-genera will appear for the Milk Control board.
