TAK0MA ELECTION
ACTION DUE TODAY
Leahy to File Suit ChaI-
Ienging Authority to Hold
Referendum.

An injunction suit challenging the
authority of the Commissioners to
hold the wet-dry referendum in Ia
komA, D. c., next Wednesday will be
filed in District Supreme Court late
today or tomorrow by Attorney Will
liam E. Leahy, it became known tc-
day.
Mr.. Leahy. representing license ap-
plicants, who has been considering
the question for the past week, said
this morning the petition is being
put in final shape. Although not dis
closing the detailed grounds, Leahy
indicated the plea to the court would
be based on the general contention
that the municipal authorities are
without authority in law to hold the
proposed referendum. Associated with
Leahy in filing the petition will be
Attorney William J. Hughes, jr.
Legal Battle Presaged.
A legal battle is presaged by the
fact that Corporation Counsel z Bar
rett Prettyman declared several days
ago he was confident the CommiS-
sioners had sufficient authority under
the District liquor control act to hold
the referendum, since that act author
ICES them to consider the wishes of
residents and property owners.
Under the usual procedure in in
junction cases, the filing of the petit
ton would be followed by the fixing
of a time for District officials to
answer and show cause why the ap-
plication should not be granted.
The arguments on which the appli-
cants will rely will not be known until
the petition Is filed. Mr.. Leahy said
several days ago, however, that he was
studying the organic act which created
the commission form of government,
and he added today that he found
nothing in the act to authorize the
holding of the referendum.
List Put in Shape.
While the legal contest was LOOM
ing, officials at the DlStr1cC Building
went ahead with the work of putting
the registration list of those eligible
to take part in the balloting in final
shape. All that remains is to consider
and pass upon the approximately IT'S
challenges on file.
The Election Board announced to-
day it will convene in the Takoma
School tomorrow afternoon from 2
to 4:30 and tomorrow evening from
2 until 9 O'Clock to receive any replies
that may be presented by those whose
names have been challenged for vari-
GUS reasons. Originally the board
had planned to meet tomorrow and
Saturday at the school, but it was de-
cided one day would be sufficient
for this purpose. A considerable num-
Der of the challenges-more than 40
are classified as Implications of names.
Some of the others are listed as cases
where persons have moved into the
Takoma area since July or of persons
who have moved away recently.
