Move to make liquor buyers guilty with sellers urged in Congress
The Methodist Episcopal Church South temperance group led by Bishop James Cannon Jr and Eugene L. Crawford urges passage of the Sheppard bill to hold liquor buyers as criminally liable as sellers. They argue such a move better curtails traffic and curbs open defiance of law, citing ten years of experience under the Volstead act. Senator Hawes signals likely opposition lines in the December session.
