Hoover Opens Campaign With Prohibition Shift
Hoover launched his re election bid with an acceptance speech urging a modification of the Eighteenth Amendment to return liquor control to states under federal aid to keep dry states and prevent saloon restoration. He aligned with Alfred E Smith on the core issue, praised by Republican leaders and some Democrats, while covering broader goals for prosperity, tariff protection, and foreign debt policy. The ceremony in Constitution Hall drew 4,000 attendees as Coolidge stayed away due to hay fever.
