"The police power of a state over the liquor traffic is not limited to the power to prohibit the sale of intoxicating liquors supported by a separate implied power to prohibit kindred nonintoxicating liquors so far as necessary to make the prohibition of intoxicants effective; it is a single broad power to make such laws, by way of prohibition, as may be required to effectively suppress the traffic in intoxicating liquors." -- United States Supreme Court , JACOB RUPPERT, INC, v. CAFFEY, U.S. , 251 U.S. 264 (1920)
