New York Saloons Violate Wartime Prohibition Rules
The second day of wartime prohibition shows liquor of almost every variety for sale in New York City saloons. Drinks disguised as other beverages pass for regular orders, while the drys shift focus to broader enforcement bills. Federal attorney Francie G. Caffey says 2.75 per cent beer sales violate the law, with no action until Supreme Court ruling. Palmer orders an Atlantic City probe as saloon traffic plunges nationally, and saloons report only about a quarter of normal business.
