Supreme court upholds ban on beer as medicine case
The Supreme court ruled Congress may deny beer for medical use under the 18th amendment. The decision centers on Congress’s power to criminalize beer when prescribed by doctors, not on the medicine value of beer. The dispute traces to Palmer’s 1921 opinion and ensuing permits for brewing and prescribing.
