Federal liquor ban on ships affects U S flag vessels worldwide
Attorney General Daugherty issued a sweeping ruling prohibiting liquor on American ships anywhere in the world and barring foreign ships with liquor from entering American waters. The Shipping Board must end liquor sales on government vessels outside U S waters and no private U S flag ships may carry liquor abroad. American ports will bar ships from nations that do not dispose of liquor before entering territorial waters. Enforcement is deemed straightforward, though international tensions with major maritime powers are anticipated.
