shall not be recoverable from the Board. Upon the filing of
such transcript, the Court, sitting without a jury, shall have
exclusive jurisdiction to affirm, modify or set aside such order
in whole or in part. No objection to the order of the Board
shall be considered unless such objection shall have been
urged before the Board, or unless there were reasonable
grounds for failure so to do. The finding of the Board, as to
facts, if supported by evidence, shall be conclusive. If any
party shall apply to the Court for leave to adduce additional
evidence, and shall show to the satisfaction of the Court that
such additional evidence is material and that there were rea-
sonable grounds for failure to adduce such evidence before
the Board, the Court may order such additional evidence to
be taken before the Board upon such terms and conditions as
to the Court may seem proper. The Board may modify its find-
ings as to the facts by reason of the additional evidence so
taken, and it shall file with the Court such modified or new
findings which, if supported by substantial evidence, shall be
conclusive and their recommendations, if any, for the modifi-
cation or setting aside of the original order. The judgment of
the Court affirming, modifying or setting aside, in whole or
in part, any such order of the Board shall be final. An appeal
shall not, unless specifically ordered by the Court to the con-
trary, operate as a stay of the order of the Board. The costs of
such appeal in said Court shall be paid by the appellant unless
otherwise specifically ordered by the Court.

In such actions of appeal the Liquor Control Board for
Montgomery County shall be represented by some qualified
employee of the said Board designated for such service by said
Board.

SEC. 2. And be it further enacted, That this Act shall take
effect June 1, 1941.

Approved May 26, 1941.
