DOCTORS WOULD
REPEAL DRY Law
County Medical Society Ad-
vocates Wiping Out of
Klair Prohibition Act
WILL TAKE FIGHT
TO LEGISLATURE

Resolutions were adopted at a meet
ing OF the New Castle County Medical
Society last night. condemning the klair
State "dry" law, because Of its con-
flct with the Volstead Federal enforce
ment act. The resolutions characterize
the Klair law as a hindganca TO physi-
clans In the successful practice Of their
profession and aurges bill in its place
to conform with the national measure.
This was the opening Of the society's
campaign TO be waged at the special
session Of the Legislature, which con-
venes next Mondf, against the klair
law. A special committee OF nine
members to act In cooperation with
the legislative, committee Of the so
ciety, was appointed to attend the ses-
sion Of the legislature and present the
resolutions adopted. The medical So
cieties Of Kent and Sussex counties Will
also be invited TO cooperate.
The resolution adopted was prepared
by Phillip l.. Garrett, attorney for the
society. In a brief resume OF prOh!bi-
tion legislation, Mr.. Garrett expressed
the conviction that the Klair law is a
violation OF the Delaware COnsttu-
ton regulating local option, which
specifies that no restriction shall be
placed on the sale OF intoxicating
liquors for medicinal or sacramental
purposes. He singled out the pro-
vision Of the national amendm mt quail
flying beverage purposes" asserting
That a State was only given power to
pass concurrent legislation for the en-
forcemsnt Of prohibition act in this re-
speot.
lie further commended that the State
had no right to overslep this boundary
and expressed confidence that the
Court would uphold this contention.
He cpnoluded with the suggestion that
the doctors urge the enactment OF
BIZ emulailng the VOlstead act with
the TrovisO that it be applicable only
as lpng as prohibition is operative.
