Excise Committee Opens Wide Hearings In Hartford
Hartford March 5 The excise committee of the General Assembly opened hearings on 32 bills this afternoon with far fewer subjects than usual. One notable bill concerns gifts of liquor to minors, stemming from a Danielson case where two boys used a 25 cent piece to obtain drinks for themselves. The saloon keeper did not violate the law, and the incident ended as juvenile delinquency for the youths and a prank.
