mined by the current registration of voters therein; ex-
cept that any Class C Club licenses issued therein and the
Club and Organization licenses provided for hereinabove
in this section shall not be counted in the computation of
such aggregate number of alcoholic beverages licenses.
Such quota shall be computed and applied separately for
each of the several election districts of Cecil County.

(c) If the total number of alcoholic beverages licenses
issued and outstanding in any such election district on
June 1, 1951, or at any time thereafter, is greater than the
quota for such election district as prescribed hereinabove
in this section, no licensee holding a beer license shall be
issued either a beer and wine license or a beer, wine and
liquor license; and no licensee holding a beer and wine
license shall be issued a beer, wine and liquor license. Any
such change or transfer of licenses as is described in this
sub-section shall be permitted only in the event the quota
in the particular election district is unfilled, so that the
new license can be issued without causing the quota to be
exceeded.

(d) Nothing in this section shall be construed to re-
quire the forfeiture or revocation of any alcoholic bever-
ages license issued and outstanding on June 1, 1951. In
any election district in which the quota is exceeded as of
that date, the total number of licenses shall be reduced
from time to time only by the voluntary relinquishment of
licenses by the licensees, or by the workings of other pro-
visions of this Article; and no new license shall be issued
in any election district unless such issue may be made
without exceeding the quota as established hereinabove
in this section.

SEC. 2. And be it further enacted, That this Act shall
take effect June 1, 1951.

Approved April 30, 1951.
