Hickson ends his Boston healing mission at St John the Evangelist Church after two days of public ministrations.

Fitzgerald Cites Maine as Drastic Prohibition Example

In a five hour House debate on the Volstead bill, Congressman John F. Fitzgerald of Boston described Maine as a horrible example of prohibition enforcement failure. He cited open bars in Bangor and Portland and argued enforcement is impossible while Maine’s voters remain opposed and local officials tolerate liquor sales. His remarks, echoed by Maine’s representative, contrasted with claims of widespread nonenforcement and highlighted labor concerns raised by Samuel Gompers.

Clubs face revenue loss and consider higher dues, while a notable city issue involves liquor dealers seeking relief from wartime prohibitions. Mayor Peters urges action, and federal probes target barrooms with beer samples near the 4.23 percent standard amid ongoing enforcement actions.
