manufacture sale importation exportation and transportation ot of liquors in other vioris berds it Is for violation of the provisions which are included in tile the constitutional amendment itself there Is no chance that unjust penalties would be imposed for mere possession which floes does not come within tile the scope of the law there Is no minimum provision altho there are many who have belibei believed that it should be included it if adien amendments are offered on the floor the till bill might well ie be changed to include the counterfeiting of labels revenue stamps and ancl
