The Supreme Court held the wartime prohibition act constitutional and invalidated a New York decree aimed at restoring whiskey withdrawals. The decision upholds federal and state authority, blocks attempts to override federal power, and states no injunctions restrain revenue officials from seizing bonded liquor. Justice Brandeis writes the opinion, with the decision pending further rulings on related beer cases.
