The story behind the piece

The morning after the House passed the 18th Amendment, Richmond's paper put it across the top of the page. Virginia had already been dry for a year, and the same front page carries the state Prohibition Commissioner's report on how that first year went.

Look for the boxed summary of Virginia's results, from arrests to bank deposits, a snapshot of how the dry side made its case.
