The anti saloon league plans a city by city push led by business leaders to explain the merits of prohibition through newspapers magazines radio and motion pictures.

Reports say gangsters threaten juice suppliers and California growers seek Justice Department protection against interstate sales. McBride listed leaders joining the effort with groups already formed in Philadelphia Pittsburgh and Baltimore. The Chicago bar favors repeal with a November 20 note from the desk.
