When Should Saloons in Towns Now No-License Quit Selling? Contradictory laws regarding liquor licenses were passed by the last leg- islature which present a very interest- ihg ‘problem in the Connecticut towne which have just voted no-license. The legislature in chapter 263 of the, public acts of 1917, approved May 10, passed a law that'licensed dealers in towns which voted no-license on Oct. 1 can apply and be granted a renewai of their licenses to the first Mondmy of December. Six days after that law was pasded another was approved which carries provisions that all liquor licenses in towns which voted no-license Oct. 1 shall expire at the end of the license vear, which is the first Monday In November. This is found in chapter 322, approved May 16. The law approved May 10. is chapter 263, and section 1 provides for a vote on 'the license question at the annual town meeting upon petition of 10 per cent. of the registered voters, and says in part: “The ballot shall be cast in favor of or against the granting of licenses for the sale of -spirituous and intoxicating liquors, and the vote then taken shall remain in full force .until the first Monday of the second month after its annulment by a new vote taken at an annual town meeting upon petition, and after due notice as aforesaid, which vote shall become operative on the first Monday of the second month next succeeding said town meeting, provided, in towns elscting town offi- cers biennially under the provisions of chapter 227 of the public acts of 1907, and in which no town officers. are elected annually, such ballot shall be taken only at the time and place of holding such biennjal election.” Section 2 is more explicit about the two monthe’ renewal and reals: “When any town, upon petition and after due notice, shall have voted that no person shall be licensed to sell was on sale | spirituous and intoxicating liquors in said town, any licensed dealer in any town so voting may apply to the coun- ty commissioners for a renewal of his license for a period not later than the first Monday of thm second month after said vote; and the fee to be paid for any huch renewal period shaill bear the same proportion to the license fee for a year as the time for which it is granted bears to the full vear. This law in regard to fees is in con- flict with another statue which pro- vides that commissioners shall not gharge less than one-sixth of a vear's license fee for any license of any pe- riod. The law which directly contra- dicts the provision for two months’ iicense after a no-license vote is found jin chapter 322, approved May 16. 1917, amending chapter 65 of the acts of 1909 as amended by chapter 224 of the acts of 1909, and, ifs important part referring to a vote on license at the annual town meeting reads: “The ballot shall be cast either In favor of or against the granting of licenses for the sale of spirituous or intoxicating liquors, and such vote shall remain in force until a new vote shall be taken, which vote shall be- come operative on the first Maday of the month next succeeding said town meeting. provided. In towns electing town officers biennially. such ballot shall be taken only at the time and place of holding such biennial elec- tion.” TO HOUSE 1000 SAILORS AT PIER Government Not Worrying Over Coal For’ Heating Purposes.

RAILROAD COOPERATING WITH FOOD ADMINISTRATION No Beef to be Served on Dining Cars Tuesdays. The New York, Néw Haven & FHartford Railroad company announced Friday” that for the duration- of the war all Tuesdays on its dining cars will be beefless. The company is also cooperating with the United States Food Administration in other ways and ali menus are prepared in accord- ance with suggestions made by the Food Administration. The following notice is printed on al menu cards on the company’s dining cars: This Railroad Is a Member of the United States Food Administration diversion of millions « men from production to war, to ‘the occupatfon of land by the armies to the isolation of markets by belligerent lines. The supplies in the world’s larder for the next twelve months are now known. They are too short to support our allies unless every man, woman and child enters national service to support the Food Administration. We are co-operating with the Unit- ed States Food Administration, and our menu is prepared in accordance with suggestions made by the Food Administration. The problem that confronts Ameri- cans is to feed our allies this winter by sending them as much food as we can of the most concentrated nutri- tive value in the least shipping space. These foods are wheat. beef, pork, dairy products and sugar. The way we can best help to meet this problem is to eat less of these foods and more of other foods of which we have an abundance, and to waste less of all foods. Eat less white bread, substituting bread or rolls made from corn, rye, or_from mixed flour. Use more chicken, hare, rabbit, duck, goose, fish, lobster, oysters, clams, sea foods and egg dishes of all sorts. Economize on milk and cream ex- cept for children. Use cheese gener- ally. .
