Supreme Court upholds prohibition enforcement rulings
The Supreme Court decided the federal prohibition amendment and enforcement act are constitutional. It dismissed Rhode Island and New Jersey injunctions against enforcing prohibition, dissolved restraints on Manitowoc Products in Wisconsin, and sustained decrees denying injunctions against Christian Feigenspan of New York and the St. Louis Brewing Association. The decision, with a brief majority opinion and a concurring note by Chief Justice White, also denied injunctions in cases from Kentucky distilleries and a Boston wholesaler. A separate opinion from Justice McReynolds cited uncertainty about the 15th Amendment. Washington granted permission for rehearing in these prohibition cases.
