House amends beer bill to permit home brew with limits
Washington August 16. The Willis Campbell beer bill amendment would let householders brew at home for personal use if not for sale. Federal agents would need warrants to enter homes and searches require belief liquor is made or sold there. Debate over striking out for sale failed 96 to 54. Volstead endorsed the substitute, saying enforcement remains unchanged.
