Arkansas Supreme Court rules against minor beer sale appeal
The Arkansas Supreme Court ruled that the 1935 alcoholic control act did not repeal the 1915 statute banning sale of wine and beer to minors. Justices McHaney and Butler dissented. The ruling affirmed Logan circuit court which barred Joe Digliacoma from selling beer at Paris for violating the 1915 prohibition law defining a public nuisance. Digliacuma contended the 1950s act repeated the earlier statute and argued he could not be charged under 1915 provisions.
