Suitor seeks brewery operation to test war time dry law
A stockholders suit filed in federal court seeks to bar James Everard breweries from suspending production May 1 and sales July 1 under the wartime prohibition act. The complaint argues the emergency clauses of the 1918 and 1941 acts are unconstitutional, claiming cessation of hostilities and armistice negate any wartime need for restricting grain use in beer and wine manufacture. It alleges no emergency existed to justify such prohibitions and challenges congressional authority.
