Augusta Ministers Report Statewide Prohibition Failure in Georgia
A letter issued by Augusta ministers and the Richmond County law enforcement committee condemns statewide prohibition in Georgia since 1908. It argues liquor sale erodes law, breeds extortion and disorder, and undermines police and juries, warning of liquor distribution across eastern Georgia and on railways. Executive note: Anti-Statewide Prohibition Organization of Texas.
