May Have to Resign From Maui Board Over Prohibition Ties
Harry Baldwin, Maui county’s liquor license commissioner, may quit due to active ties with the prohibition movement. The law bars any person connected with intoxicating liquor manufacture or with a temperance group from holding office. Acting Governor Matt Smith said the issue must be brought to the chief executive through proper channels for action. If a petition against Baldwin is filed by a local saloon keeper seeking license renewal, the commission would remove him immediately if the governor determines he is ineligible.
