Why so difficult to enforce? 1.) The US is BIG -18,700 miles of coastline/border -Legal in neighboring nations

2.) Loop holes - “Medical” alcohol - “Sacramental” alcohol - “Near” Beer

This fascinating back-label for Lengfeld's Pharmacy in San Francisco has the doctor's name, the patient's name and address and the "article" is described as "wine." In the line for "Directions" it's written: "Wineglass as needed."

3.) Alcohol, key part of the immigrant culture -Italian-German-Irish

4.) Underfunding -Only 3000 agents -Agents salary was $2,500 -Led to bribes/mass corruption/organized crime

Elliot Ness -FBI agent -Chicago - “The Untouchables”

The Effects 1.)Bootlegging - making and smuggling alcohol

2.)Speakeasies = secret bars

3.) Organized crime and corruption -Large profits attract gangsters -Violence as gangs compete - Bribed police, judges and politicians St. Valentines Day Massacre 1929

Al “Scarface” Capone  Chicago  By 1927 earning $60 million a year from bootlegging.  Responsible for over 500 murders

Repeal 21 st Amendment  Repealed prohibition  Dec. 1932

‘Today looks like a good day for a beer.’ - President Franklin D. Roosevelt
