Bone Dry L:iw Likely Tested
By Higher Court
Sooner or later the United
States supreme court will be
asked to pass upon the oonsti
tutionabty of the Alaska bone
viry law. It will he claimed that
that the federal Volstead act su
percedes the Territorial Alask i
bone dry law.
It is possible that, growing
out of the recent raids on Gas
tinue channel, the first attack
may be made against the Alas
ka bone dry law in the district
court
In a liquor case brought be
fore him Judge Kobert W. Jen
nings, who recently was suc
ceeded by Judge Thomas i\:».
Heed. Jennings decided that
ihe Alaska bone dry law was
constitutional. An appeal was
taken to the circuit court & tee
ciivu 11 court upheld the opinion
by two of the judgesconfirm
ing and the other judge dis
senting Judge Hoss, in a mi
nority leport, held that the Vol
stead act superceded the terri
to rial act.
No appeal was taken to the
supreme court.
The Alaska bone dry lawT is
more strict than the federal act.
in a does not permit any kind of
home brew. In this respect,
as well as in some others, it is
said, to be in conflict to the
federal act. Juneau attorn
eys are digging into the quest
ion and preliminary skirmishes
have already taken place.
