Chicago Citizens Paln for Law to Enforce Prohibition
An AP report notes Chicago reformers urge Congress to compel city officials to enforce the Eighteenth Amendment. A Chicago Law and other league resolution accuses Mayor Thompson and Police Superintendent of laxity, citing about 5 040 officers and 1 500 dry bars in Chicago. The group calls for a federal law to require oath fulfillment and curb urban lawlessness. Arthur Purrage Farwell chairs the resolution.
