Harding orders to halt shipping liquor on all US vessels
An opinion by Attorney General Daugherty prompts President Harding to command the Treasury to end intoxicating liquor sales on vessels of the United States Shipping Board and to ban liquor transport in American waters. The move, likely to trigger court challenges, is defended as enforcing a law violated by government ships and extending to foreign shipments. The piece notes widespread home ownership growth and political maneuvering within the Republican party ahead of 1924.
