Expert Says Hauptmann Didn’t Write Notes On Liquor Bill
Raleigh February 1 Groundwork for a major legislative fight over liquor in Carolina began as copies of a model bill to regulate stores were sent to the General Assembly. Senator John Sprunt Hill of Durham indicated the measure could be amended before final form. The act would require voter approval at a special general election held on the first Tuesday after the adjournment. The sole question would be ratification of the proposed control act. The United Dry forces met to oppose any referendum on liquor and called for no changes to the dry laws.
