Moon Law Ruling Affects Iowa Saloons Licenses
The Iowa Supreme Court ruled the Moon law limiting to one saloon per 1,000 people took effect April 15, 1909, not July 4, 1909, invalidating many licenses issued after passage but before July 4. The decision settles the timing for licenses in Sioux City and Waterloo and clarifies retroactivity concerns for drys and wets.
