Naugatuck, Aug 22-- Despite the
fact the resolution permitting sale
on Sundays Of spirituous liquors in
clubs, restaurants and hotels here
which possess state permits was
passed yesterday at a special meet
ing Of the freemen, It was not
know . today whether or not liquor
sale in such asia blishments would
be permitted next Sunday.
The Eyes" votes which permitted
sale on Sundays outnumbered the
noes, the vote being 233 to 90
The total vote of 1928 was a little
larger than had been estimated
but showed the large majority OF
voters here took little interest in
the issue. This vote gave the vets
a better than two-to-one triumph,
the difference being 144 votes.
Because of the fact that appli-
cation blanks for. establishments
seeking permits asked II the town
In which the signer resided per-
mitted sale on Sundays, there was
some uncertainty today as to
whether the state will now have
to be notified first and sanction
granted before the first Sunday
sale starts. Some thought that sale
woul1 be allowable next Sunday,
now that the borough had officially
given its sanction. Others thought
state sanction would be required.
As far as could be learned there
is only one such place here that
has received state permit to sell.
Vote was by ballot and the rec
ords of Miss Josephine Collins,
moderator, who did a fine Job IN
thsi position, showed that 2S3 men
and 40 women voted. The vote by
wards follows: First, 113 men and
Q women or total Of 1873; Sec
ond, ward, Sc men and 8 women
or a total Of go; third ward 11S
men and 25 women, or a total Of
t3s.
One of the surprising features
Of the affair was that more resi-
dents from the third ward which
takes in the Union City section and
part of "wede Hill" voted than
did those in the first ward, al
though the voting took place in
The courtroom, which is much
Nore convenient to residents of the
irst ward, than to third ward res
dents.
1t was explained many women
from the Swedish section came to
vote, and most of them are believ-
"a to have voted against the pro-
pesal. Polls opened at 10 o'clock
and closed at 9.
Although the vote was not heavy
it was larger than the number
which Iually attend the annual
freemen's meeting where the i'm
portant budget matter for the new
fiscal year is settled and many
other important measures come up
Patrick Curtin was checker and
Cornelius Bowling was box tender
II 10 believed the cost of the meet
ing to the borough was not more
than $40.

yet paid their auto taxes have less
than q week and a half left In
whit. to pay them, Property Tax

Der, 1884 tax due July !, 1895.
