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.
