Moon Law Ruling Could Close Saloon Lanes in Iowa
Judge DeGraff's Moon law ruling faces possible reversal by the Supreme Court. If upheld, about 4,380 saloons that opened licenses July 1 would close, with injunctions sought in many cities. The Iowa Anti-Saloon League expects broad enforcement and cites city overages in Des Moines and other towns. Also notes senatorial district redraws, Ames leadership uncertainty, railroads' 1910 earnings rise, and corporate filings.
