Nebraska Dry federation drafts prohibition plan
The Nebraska Dry federation proposes a prohibition law to be voted on at the next legislative session. It would allow any peace officer to arrest someone whose breath shows liquor, ban advertising intoxicants, prohibit sale of flavoring extracts and whiskey tablets, and criminalize directing others to liquor sources. Drugeists would be limited to medical and scientific uses. Transportation of liquor by train or motor carriers within the state would be forbidden and public records kept of shipments into Nebraska. Lawyers for the federation say the measure would be workable.
