New York Lawyers Say Eighteenth Amendment Illegally Ratified
A New York County Lawyers Association committee after two years finds the eighteenth amendment illegally ratified and plans to bring the argument to the U S Supreme Court. Professor Leslie Tompkins says the vote was six to one and cites the tenth amendment as the basis for challenging the process. Selden Bacon drafted the pamphlet detailing the theory and will distribute it to members. The group urges submission to a national convention of the people.
