Home Brew Ruling Supports Home Use vs Volstead Violations
Judge Morris A Soper sides with John Philip Hill in Baltimore as he rules the one half of one per cent clause does not apply to beverages made in the home for home consumption. The decision cites congressional intent and a Senate opinion from 1928 supporting non intoxicating home products. The ruling follows extended arguments by Hill's counsel and the U S attorney Amos W Woodmack with government chemists testifying alcohol content up to eleven per cent in Hill s homemade wine.
