Meat Inspection Ordinance Challenged In San Antonio Case
A constitutional challenge to San Antonio meat inspection rules is set for next week in county criminal court against Levi Wurzbach charged with violating the ordinance by selling meat from calves slaughtered outside the defined area. Attorney C A Davies argues the rules create a de facto monopoly and restrict cattle owners rights, while ante mortem inspection provisions are contested as inferior to post mortem checks. The ordinance, posted in 1896, allegedly lay dormant until revived by recent arrests.
