New Haven, July 28. — The New Haven county commissioners today were uncertain whether the decision of the, supreme court of errors, made yesterday in the case of Ernest C. Adams of Bridgport vs. the Fairfielc county comniissioners—a suit to se- cure return of a portion of license money by reason of nullification of the license when the 18th amendment went Into force—applies to New Ha- ven county. It is estimated that there would be about 1,000 soloon keepers ta receive an average of $200 each should the case just decided hold as applied to this county. - This might mean that the county commissioners would have to ashk the cities and towns in the county~to return the money paid to them as their proportionate share nf the license money. The case decided by the supreme court was brought in Fairfield county. Opinion differs here as to whether the decision falls with equal force on all the counties. The general assembly has granted no relief on the petitions of the saloonkeepers holding that the question was to be decided by the courts, Girl Scout Leaders Back From Camp at Rainbow Eighteen girls returned last night from the Girl Scout Leaders’' camping trip at Rainbow.

On April 2, last, the right of way men, acting for the Union Pacific railroad, secured possession of the needed ground for the construction of the rallway from the Salt Lake route main line at Lund to the en- trance of Zion National park, and on the same day the first scraperful of earth was turned on the grade. The contractor strung his men out in sectlons.and as fast as a section was completed, the track-laying crew took possession and the ties and rails were set in place. Crowding upon their heels was the ballast crew. And 8o the work was rushed toward Cedar City. In the midst of this orgy of toll came word that the president of the United States would visit Zion Park, providing the track was in shape for his big special train upon his arrival in the west. Every man on the sys- tem from the highest executive to the lowliest section hand, plunged into the work with redoubled energy. ‘Whereupon there came the an- nouncement that President Harding's trip to southern Utah had been can- celled, and the work dragged. But again came cheering news, defl- nite this time, that the president would come. Ignoring dust and desert heat, the men plunged into the job again, determined to finish the road in time. Only forty-eight hours before the arrival of the president's train the de- pot site at Cedar City was strewn with foundations and debris that had been carted away or torn down. Ballast trains brought in clean white gravel. An approach twenty feet wide for au- tomobile travel was graded and sur- taced and grounds were roped off. Twelve hours before the president’s train was due the electriclans were erecting poles and stringing the lights along the rallway track and the sta- tiontion yard. The superintendent of the work rode into Cedar City on a pllot train ahead of the presidential train and met his yard foreman, who was just finishing his second continuous 24- hour shift that week. He was cover- ed with dirt and grime and a half- inch growth of rough beard bristled on his face. The superintendent pre- cutive. branch, ballast trains bringing gravel was 119 cars.
