QUESTION NO. :1.
LAW SUBMITTED UPON REFERENDUM AFTER
PASSAGE.

This law amends General Laws, chapter 1;~1~ as previously
amended, by repealing section 105A thereof and adding thereto
three new sections, 10513, 105C, and 114A.
Section 105B provides that whoever uses any trap or other device
for capture of fur bearing animals, which is not designed to kill such
~!mal at once or to take it unhurt and which is likely to cause
continued suffering to an animal caught therein, shall be fined fifty
dollars, but traps or other devices for protection of property, set not
more than fifty yards from any building, cultivated plot, or enclosures
used for rearing poultry or game birds~ to the use of which the pres-
ence of ve~mt~ may be detrimental, are excluded from the application
of this section.
Section 105C provides for the submission to the voters at a munici-
pal election in any city or town upon petiflon~ of the que'-tion of
whether the operation of section 105B shall be suspended or if it
has been slready suspended, of the question whether it shall again
be operative in such city or town.
Section I14A provides that the Commissioner of Conservation
may suspend the operation of section 105B for a period not exceed-
lng thirty days within any specified territo~ under the coutrol of
his department.
The law also provides for the submission, by the select-
men to the voters at a special town meeting in the current
year, upon petition, of the question as to whether the pro-
visions of section 105B shall be suspended 'in any town;
and which was approved by both branches of tho General
Court by vote not recorded, be approved?

believe that the records of the election officers of precinct 1, 2, 5, and 4,

should have been counted for John J; McDuff ica, and thmt votes were counted
