Porto Rico Does Not Want Prohibition

PORTO RICO DOES NOT WANT PROHIBITION
From The Western Brewer  1916

Annoyed by statements recently made to the United States Congress to the effect that Porto Rico spends $14,000,000 a year for liquor, and by the efforts of prohibitionists to put the island on the water wagon, the native legislators have introduced in the Porto Rican legislature a resolution asking Congress to refrain from interfering with the island’s excise measures.
