Why Congress Opposed Prohibition For Hawaii
A transcript from Honolulu hearings shows debate over federal prohibition for the Territory of Hawaii. Delegates argue Congress can regulate intoxicants and should not infringe territorial self rule, while local chambers push to preserve home rule and resist federal intrusion. The discussion notes native Hawaiian concerns, historic acts, and the balance of power between territorial autonomy and federal authority.
