The plan was prepared by Charles 8.

Repeal of the Volstead act. Restoration of Federal supervision of the production, wholesale distribution and interstate transportation of liquor. Restoration to the States of complete and final authority to prohibit to regu- late the manufacture, transportation and sale of liguor within their own bor- ers Prevention of the return of the sa- foon by State laws restricting sale of liquor to be consumed on the premises to bonafide restaurants and hotels. Added protection to States satisfled with prohibition by developing and per- fecting Federal laws governing trans- portation of liquor through or -across prohibition States. Rackemann maintained that his plan was not in reality a very great under- taking and “will not require much time for ucampmhment He said dry States “might safely vote to inaugu- rate the mew system, their own pref- erences being safeguarded md their sutonomy bemx ruwred TRADE BOARD POST IS GIVEN TO SCHWAB Veteran Member Is Elected Chair- man of Membership Committee to Succeed Barmard.
