Merrimack,

No. 4694.

State v. George F. Brown.

Argued October 7, 1958.

Decided November 5, 1958.

Louis C. Wyman, Attorney General, John J. Zimmerman, Assistant Attorney General, and Dort S. Bigg, Law Assistant (Mr. Bigg orally), for the State.

Green, Green, Romprey & Sullivan and James A. Manning (Mr. Manning orally), for the defendant.

Wheeler, J.

RSA 70:6 (supp.) provides that a candidate for Representative in Congress shall file a statement of receipts and expenditures covering the period of his candidacy, not later than the Wednesday preceding the primary before the close of the business day. See RSA 70:5 (supp.). In this case that was September 5, 1956. The statute requires that such statement be filed even though the candidate has had no receipts or expenditures. A filing on September 7, 1956, was not compliance with the statute. State v. Sullivan, 101 N. H. 429.

Motion denied.

All concurred.
