Prohibition’s Ghosts: Will the ‘Worst Failure in a Century’ Rise Again?

June 16, 1935, Washington D.C. – In a stunning revelation that sent shockwaves through the nation’s capital, Scott McBride, General Superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League of America, has boldly declared that Prohibition will be back within a decade. The prediction, made in a series of recent addresses, is rooted in a stark assessment of the current state of affairs. After a grueling 14-month survey of 41 states and a 17,000-mile automobile tour through 26 states, McBride has reached a chilling conclusion: every control method has collapsed, and the liquor problem has spiraled out of control.
