Green Admits Drinking As Prohibition Chief Faces Embezzlement Trial
In San Francisco on December 10 a federal court heard Colonel Ned M. Green, former prohibition administrator, claim he drank and wanted the public to know he was no lily. Tran Johnson, reporter and son of Col Samuel T. Johnson, described Green’s self view. Witnesses recounted a dinner in Green’s room with champagne bottles. Johnson’s father testified liquor was served but not heavily consumed. The defense will argue the younger Johnson exploited his father’s Prohibition Office ties for leverage in the hospitality episode.
