VOLSTEAD FINDS LAW FOR HOME BREW Father of National Prohibition Act Shapes Legal Weapons Minnesota. • * Minneapolis, Minn., Oct. 13. Andrew Volstead, father of the na tional prohibition act and now le- i gal advisor to the northwest pro-1 hibition enforcement unit, has laid the foundation on which federal prohibitioon agents have waged a war against manufacture of “home brew” for private consumption. Mr. Volstead shaped a legal wea pon which dry agents used to raid two twin cities malt shops, the source of supply, they say for ma terial used in the private manu facture of “home brew.” After an investigation, Mr. Vol stead announced that in his opin ino malt shop proprietors could be arrested under section 18, para graph two, of the national prohi bition act.. This paragraph for bids “possession or sale of mater ials designed for use in manufact uring intoxicating liquor.” It pro vides a penalty of SSOO. Mr. Volstead further ruled that should a malt shop proprietor be found guilty under this section of the law, he could also be convict ed of a conspiracy to violate the dry act, a charge which carries a penalty of two years imprisonment. Under certain circumstances no thing is so tortuous as a vivid im agination.
