Description:
Montgomery, Ala.--Teenagers representing the Methodist Youth Assembly picket the state capitol here in protest against a bill that would permit cities to legalize liquor sales. Under present law, counties make the decision. Protestant clergy, laymen and young people from many parts of Alabama stormed the capitol to protest the bill, introduced by Senator George Quarles. Following a hearing by the Senate Temperance Committee, the Quarles Measure was killed by a 4-3 vote. Leading the picket line were (left to right) Dan Jackson and O.C. Brown.
