Prohibition Agents To Use Only Pistols In Regulated Carry
Prohibition Commissioner J M Doran drafts an order banning rifles for dry agents except in isolated areas. After a Texan agent was killed, agents will be armed only with revolvers to reduce fatal shootings and prevent felonies. The rule follows the Stevens incident where a rifle contributed to the tragedy. The policy excludes machine guns and targets bootlegger threats near Detroit according to Doran. In related notices the Southern Iowa Fair and Exposition boards plan daily music with the Iowa Brigade Band and other ensembles August 11 to September 1, highlighting event slots and venues.
