QUESTION RIGHT TO REGULATE
 OUR HABITS
Continued from Page One,


 with the internal government of the people and operates to punish them under authority of the 18th Amend ment, the petition says it is itself null and void.
 Continuing the petition states that the Volstead act is illegal because by 'depreciating and in a large measure destroying the taxable value of real and personal property within the state,'' 1t is destructive of the states free and independent goverltment, be- cause it deprives the state of revenues from licenses, which in 1918 amounted Ito g -442, S99, and because it interferes by heavy fines, Imprisonment and for feitures, thus preventing the appIica- ton for licenses for the sale of non intoxicating beverages which is au- thorized and legal under the laws of the state.
 Complaint is made further that the act restricts the practice of physi- clans and surgeons of the state and the operation of its penal, correctional and charitable institutions, that the state has not concurred in the na- tionaI amendment and that if the act 1 is enforced it nullifies the right of the state to regulate its internal affairs, | and further that the act is not appro- priate to enforce the prohibition con tained in the amendment, which is expressly confined and limited to in- toxicating liquors.
 In connection the complaint de- clares, that if the amendment is valid, the right of the federal congress to legislate under it is restricted to matters relating to "the external con- cerns of the United States and within the peculiar domain of the federal government to regulate commerce among the states and the state alone has the power to enforce the act with in it's own borders.
