Mayors Return From France Dodged Prohibition Question
A group of 23 American mayors and civic leaders returned from a goodwill tour of France aboard the Huey Le France. Mayor James L. Key of Atlanta drew attention for criticizing prohibition abroad. Los Angeles Mayor John Porter and his wife drank water at banquets to honor the US constitution. Omaha Mayor Metcalfe toasted with champagne but said the toast reflected their hearts.
