MORROW, P. J:

¶1The conviction is for the unlawful possession of intoxicating liquors. The offense was alleged to have taken place on the 5th day of December, 1920. The change in the statute upon which the prosecution was founded renders it necessary to reverse the judgment. This is conceded by the Assistant Attorney General. See Francis v. State, No. 6493, 235 S. W. 580, not yet [officially] reported.

¶2The judgment is reversed and remanded.
