CONGRESS HAS RIGHT
TO DEFINE INTOXICANT

define what is intoxicating liquor, the
senate Judiciary subcommittee held in

amended House prohibition enforce
ment law.
In support OF It's contention. the
subcommittee appended an elaborate
brief, understood TO have been pre-
pared by counsel for the Anti-saloon
League Of America, citing many court
decisions and precedenls.
only a few explanations for the
changes made in the House bill were
contained in the report. In some
cases, the report said. the House pro-
visions were regarded as "unnecessar-
lily burdensome." No reason was cited
for adding the provision to permit
