WETS IN 2 STATES ASKING REPEAL OF PROHIBITION LAWS
Chicago residents report organized campaigns to repeal state prohibition in Illinois and Missouri while Wisconsin moves to block a referendum. In Illinois, the National Association Opposed to Prohibition aims to repeal liquor search and seizure laws via the next state legislature and enact a sane law, with hopes for Wet and Dim Senate outcomes. Missouri activists seek a veto referendum in November and require about 606,000 signatures to place a repeal bill before voters, shifting enforcement to the federal level. The New York move leaves enforcement to federal officials. West Allis taxpayer S. A. Pullen seeks injunction to block a November referendum on modifying the Volstead Act to permit beer with 2.75 percent alcohol, with decision likely after the September primary.
