Beer Bill Advances to Senate Amid Prohibition Debate
The article reports a subcommittee endorsing a beer legalization measure as part of a broader temperance discussion. It notes both support for beer as a temperance tool and minority concerns about enforcement, price controls, and the potential shift to hard liquor. It also covers tariff considerations for wheat and cotton and constitutional questions raised by McAdoo on policy legality.
McAdoo Proposes Flexible Tariffs to Back Farm Prices
A plan by McAdoo urges Congress to set a flexible tariff on short staple cotton and raise minimum prices for wheat and cotton. The proposal calls for annual or quarterly minimums aligned with world prices, with executive power to allocate crop percentages for U S use versus export and to enforce minimum sale prices to protect farmers.
