Supreme Court Upheld Constitutional Prohibition Nationwide
The U S Supreme Court ruled the Eighteenth Amendment valid and the Volstead Act constitutional, delivering a national victory for prohibition forces. The decision nullifies state-level laws seeking to diminish enforcement and affirms federal power to enforce the ban on beverages containing 0.5 percent or more alcohol. Justice White noted ambiguity in the concurrent power clause, while Justices McReynolds and McKe nna dissented in part. The ruling applies to cases from Rhode Island New Jersey Wisconsin Missouri and others, confirming nationwide prohibition until amending the constitution. Yesterday’s weather reported high of 75 and a low of 33.
