Liquor Prohibition and the Path to Constitutional Change
The Piscataquis Observer notes that liquor control remains until Congress repeals or amends the Volstead Act. Resubmission requires a two thirds Congress vote, then ratification by three fourths of states. The next Congress would decide whether to submit prohibition, its form, and whether ratification uses legislatures or conventions. The constitution cannot be changed by a direct referendum.
