Buddy Hixson Attorney at Law 307 West Walnut Street Post Office Box 408 Paris, Arkansas 72855 Dear Buddy: We are in receipt of your letter dated December 15, 1969, wherein you request an opinion on whether taverns and liquor stores are to be closed during elections. Section 4 (u) of Article 11 of Act 465 of 1969 provides in essence that all dram-shops and drinking-houses in any county, city, town or township shall be closed during the day of any election held therein . . . and no person shall sell or give away any intoxicating liquors . . . . . Act 465 contains a general repealer clause which provides that all laws and parts of laws in conflict with Act 465 are re- pealed. Therefore, any prior act in conflict with the above provision would necessarily be repealed. I trust this sufficiently answers your inquiry. Very truly yours, JOE PURCELL Attorney General By: THOMAS A. GLAZE Deputy Attorney General TAG:bgs
