Item # 673001

February 24, 1931

LEOMINSTER DAILY ENTERPRISE, Massachusetts, February 24, 1931

* The 19th Amendment deemed valid
* Supreme Courts upholds Prohibition


The front page has a 4-column, 2-line heading: "SUPREME COURT HOLDS 18TH AMENDMENT VALID", with considerable supporting text. Yet again the Supreme Court fended off another challenge to the validity of Prohibition. The 19th Amendment would eventually be repealed, but this would not occur until 1933.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day.
Complete in 8 pages, somewhat fragile, but overall generally good. See images for details.
