Jurist Calls for Modifica
tion of. tho Eighteenth
Amendment to Consti
tution. 11KNO. Nov. (AIM Frank H
Norcross. former chief Justice of
the Nevada suorome court, author
of a resolution In the stale legls-i
j lalure calling on Congress lo as
: somble a national constitutional
convention lo amend the eighteenth
! amendment, declares thul universal
1 contempt of the law Is being In
stilled In the minds of the country's
citizenship. Ho believes that the
eighteenth amendment to the fed-
,:ral constitution should bo substi
tuted by a .provision - empowering
Congress to , prohibit - or regulatft
the Importation, manufacture und
sale of liquor, thereby placing the
entire question in the hands of the
national legislature. "
With such u modification of Ihe
Ightccnlh amendment, In his opin
ion, .Congress would feel free to
enact moderate liquor legislation
hat would' command the respect
und support of the country ut
largo. Such legislation, he consld-
rs. should not permit the return
of the saloon, but probably should
allow tho sulo of liquor under
some such system as that prevail
ing In several provinces of Can
uda. .
Position I'Aplulned.
Kxplulnlng his position, Judge
Norcross says: "I voted for Ihe Ne
vada prohibition act und supported
he eighteenth amendment. Put 1
uui convinced that they have, fall-
u. as u coiineq iieaee w 11 mo liv
ing under a nullonul luw und state
statutes that ure being openly
I looted by millions of people.
"Congress cun never huve a free
hand lo doul with tho situation un
til we return to the correct prin
ciple of making the constitution
t ho repository of congressional
power and not Itself a penal code.
"Too radical legislation has al
w ays fulled to accomplish desired
results. Natural laws control penal
laws, and there are. fixed limits be
yond which penal statutes cannot
ro und be generally respected.
I'here are extremists who believe
hat even (he moderate use of In
toxicants is harmful. On the other
hand, a large portion of the popu
lation believes that their moderate
use is not wrong. For u minority
or even u majority of a free people
Io Impose their particular ideas
upon a large portion of the popu
lation having radically different
views has never yet been success
fully accomplished."
Judge Norcross added I hat if the
Males themselves called u consti
tutional convention, the question
could be removed Iroiu politic;'
und solved. This would not bo pos
sible, he said, by any other meth
od, as Congress, even though a
majority of Its members were op
posed to I ho eighteen! h amend
ment, would m ver initiate u reso
lution for Ha revision.
