Iowa lawmakers push bills before recess with new liquor and labor aims
In Des Moines on February 26 the Iowa legislature closed its session day by introducing many measures. A notable proposal by Van Alstine would ban strikes, and a senate committee likely to oppose it. A board of examiners for patent medicines would regulate beverages and labels, with penalties for manufacturers. Other bills seek hospital care for venereal disease patients, gasoline inspection, bonded grain warehouses, state purchase centralization, and construction training apprentices. Fishing license requirements and line limits also surface.
