Wells Plank to Amend Volstead Moves Montana Senate Race
The Missoulian notes a lively clash over Prohibition in the Montana Senate race. Hugh R. Wells backs amending the Volstead Act to permit beer and wine sales while Rev Joseph Pope argues the law remains sound and predicts Wells cannot win on this issue. A Helena straw ballot shows early wet support for Wells, but Pope warns the anti prohibition bloc will prove decisive.
