Nebraska Liquor Vote Debate and Tax Bills Stir Lincoln
In Nebraska the April option vote on liquor sales faces delay by legislative stalling. The Regan Worthing measure to push back the April 1937 date to 1939 was killed in committee. Debate drew crowds. Worthing urged local sovereignty while Dafoe framed the issue as a public choice. The session also considers bindweed districts, unemployment plans under federal act terms, possible repeal of the 1921 anti picketing law, and mercy death proposals. A bill raises hit and run penalties to 90 days, with duty to aid. A warm spell lures lawmakers to spring, and fuel tax debates linger, especially exemptions for farm equipment and aircraft.
