PER CURIAM.

Each of the defendants in the above-entitled causes was convicted under sections 1 and 2, c. 118, Laws, of 1923, which, as we have just held in State v. Armstrong, No. 2947, 242 P. 440, not as yet [officially] reported, are violative of section 18, art. 4, of the Constitution of this state. The judgment in each of said causes must therefore be reversed and remanded, with direction to discharge the accused.
