The Effect of WWI on Prohibition Fed off of Anti-German Sentiment Most Breweries owned by German Americans Anti-Saloon league called beer “Kaiser’s Brew” Need to Conserve Wheat Jan 1917 - Wilson instituted a partial prohibition in effort to conserve grain Sept 1917 – banned a wartime production of beer “Grain should be made into bread for fighting men and not for making liquor.”

The Effects of Prohibition on the 1920s Normal Americans wanted to stop making sacrifices and enjoy life. Little money given to enforce the law Speakeasies opened up underground Bootleggers began smuggling alcohol Moonshine and other home made alcohol was created Organized Crime developed to sell illegal alcohol at high prices Led to a lot of violence

The End of Prohibition By mid-1920s, only 19% of Americans supported prohibition Rise of crime and lawlessness had worsened, according to those who opposed the law. Law was repealed in 1933 with the 21st Amendment – result of Great Depression (jobs and taxes)
