Joseph M. Brown Calls for Liquor Vote in Primary

He argues the legislature holds the power, condemns maneuvers by party leaders, and tenaciously defends the people’s will as the ultimate authority. Brown challenges current party leadership and asserts the need for direct citizen expression on prohibition or local option.
