Housecleaning in Prohibition Force Ordered for Oct 1
Prohibition commissioner J M Doran orders a general housecleaning of the federal dry machine by October 1 to replace police style agents with trained investigators.

A new Agents Manual will limit firearm use, ban entrapment tactics, require abstinence, and allow only a sip when purchasing liquor for evidence.
