Restaurant Men Seek Liquor Law Change In Iowa
E. L. Beck president of the Iowa Restaurant Owners association announced at the annual convention that restaurants will seek an amendment to the state liquor control law. The proposal would allow a number of restaurants in each city to sell hard liquors and wines based on population, replacing the current restriction that excludes restaurants from selling intoxicants except beer. State stores would remain the only legal outlets for other beverages and consumption would still be controlled.
