Bill to Amend Prohibition Aims to Curb Bootleggers
Senator Vernon E. Lewis of Chouteau County will introduce a bill in the senate to amend the current prohibition law. The measure seeks to allow sale of medicinal and certain non beverage products under strict labeling and restrictions to deny bootleggers access. It covers extracts, compounds, medicinal preparations, tinctures, patent and proprietary medicines, and flavoring extracts with labels stating alcohol content. The bill includes updates to search powers, revenue sharing with county funds, and a broad definition of intoxicating liquor while preserving legitimate medicine and food uses.
