Novel Law Point Raised Over Waterloo Liquor Permits
In Waterloo Iowa district court Judge C E Ransier heard two permit applications by city pharmacists to sell intoxicants amid a temperance crusade. One applicant, C J Miller, was refused renewal after remonstrance citing past violations. the other, H H Henderson, was granted a permit as he had not previously held one and each pharmacist is responsible for sales by his store. The march storyline about troops testing man and horse abilities appears as an aside.
