"AN INTELLIGENT PLAN"--PETERS
Ex-Mayor of Boston Believes That Repeal of Volstead Act is Possible
In an interview with a CRIMSON reporter yesterday Andrew J. Peters '95, former mayor of Boston, termed the CRIMSON and Debating Council proposals on prohibition "an intelligent plan." "I believe the repeal of the Volstead Act is, quite possible," said Peters, "but I doubt that the Eighteenth Amendment can ever be repealed.
