Steam Roller May Again Be Operated On Gov Henderson
Montgomery Ala Sept 21 Special. Legislators fear Governor Henderson will veto the new Ron ner prohibition law and resort to the old steam roller tactic. The bill tightens liquor delivery rules and reduces permissible quantities, while a split session was avoided by Henderson signing the consolidated court bill, ending hopes for further judiciary measures. Delayed tax exemptions and a finance committee dispute centered on waterpower exemptions, with Representative Weakley opposing removal and threatening a minority report that ultimately did not appear.
