Drastic move announced in Western Virginia liquor policy
Huntington Jan 2 United States District Attorney James Damron outlined sweeping changes in handling prohibition cases in the federal court of southern West Virginia. The policy shifts include treating possession of a half gallon or more of liquor as a felony and applying the old revenue act to three prior violations of possession selling and manufacturing liquor. Non prosecution by federal reports of prohibition cases will occur unless state officers justify not prosecuting. Damron blamed limited progress on liquor suppression and said enforcement overemphasizes small violators over manufacturers. In the past year the district court handled 2 494 cases with 2 021 convictions.
