Contends Dry Act Lets Possession Of A Gallon Of Booze
Alvah J. Rucker, attorney for Nicholas Smith, argues in City court that the 1921 prohibition statute does not repeal Sec. 35 of the 1917 act, permitting home possession of a small quantity. He filed a motion to quash the search warrant for Smith’s home raid and contends that penalizing bare possession in a bona fide home is unconstitutional, signaling the case will rest under advisement for a week.
