Rhode Island Prohibition Enforcers Target Waiters at Narragansett Pier
Rhode Island prohibitory law leads to several waiters at the Casino at Narragansett Pier being convicted for selling liquor and fined $20 with ten days in jail. Bartenders face similar prosecutions. Convictions rely on professional spotters from the city, paid $3 a day and $95 per conviction, while proprietors escape hymns of punishment. Police show resistance and reformers face limited support as larger cities stir debate amid unrest in Belfast and Chicago riots.
