Houston sheriff unadvised on beer sale crackdown
Houston county authorities have not been notified by Governor Miller to halt beer sales though Montgomery leaders seek statewide action. Grand juries since February refused indictments against beer dealers as public opinion opposed enforcement of the statute. More than 15 beverage dealers in Montgomery took federal licenses to sell beer, with Dothan not yet affected. Municipal near beer licenses were issued over a year ago to recover revenue from the illegal brew.
