Austin debates intoxicating alcohol under Dean liquor law
In Austin on September 29 W A Keeling assistant attorney general issued an interpretation of the Dean liquor law set to take effect October 21. He says the legislature cannot declare a beverage non intoxicating when it is in fact so but can declare intoxicating beverages that are not. The law prohibits manufacture of liquor for sale or personal use except for medicinal mechanical scientific or sacra mental purposes. He notes beverages with 1 per cent alcohol are established as intoxicating but less than 1 per cent remains a question of fact.
