The Volstead Act only pertained to alcoholic beverages, and only to the manufacture, sale, and transportation thereof. Possession and use remained legal.

Wolfie, a question. Wouldn't posession and intake of alcohol in all practice be illegal, since you couldn't buy, sell, make or transport it? Was this the FedGov being coy and saying "We're not really taking away your freedom."

Unless you are talking about religious exemption for the Catholic Eucharist.
