The Fallacies of the Prohibition Act IVUINED OUI BY MR. WILLIAM L. MARBURY

Opinion argues the Prohibition Act misreads the ballot question and misleads voters. It details the act's sections, including how prohibition would affect sales, manufacture, and transport of alcoholic beverages across designated Maryland locales. It warns that the published ballot questions mask the true issue and cites sections underscoring potential misleading consequences.

Prohibition Act Critique by Mr Marbury on Ballot Title

Mr Marbury argues the Prohibition Act’s title and ballot question are misleading misrepresenting the law’s reach. He warns the measure would ban social and sacred uses of alcohol including home drinking hospital medicines and church communion unless future legislatures modify it. He cites legal cases and concludes a vote for Prohibition would create broad penalties while leaving current social practices unsettled if the law is not amended.
