Today -100: June 27, 1920: We do not look upon prohibition as an issue one way or the other


Ohio Gov. James Cox refuses to make enemies by taking sides on prohibition, which is a jolt to wets who thought he was one of them. His spokesmodel, former Ohio Gov. (back in the ‘90s) James Campbell, says “We do not look upon prohibition as an issue one way or the other. Governor Cox has refused to be used by either faction. His record is one of law enforcement.”

William Gibbs McAdoo is more and more popular among the convention delegates, proving once again the attractiveness of unavailable men.

Another one of whom is Edwin Meredith, who says he is “perfectly happy as secretary of agriculture,” which is a phrase that has never been uttered by anyone else ever.
