Doran, prohibition cOmmissioner, placed much of the blame for unsatisfactory conditions as tegards prohibition in sume commun- ies to “the abject failure of local rity to assume its proper obliga- and enforce the criminal law.” “He said that the movement on the| of some local authorities to evade tl responsibilities took form as ) «as the prohibition act became and that in some cities corrupt tical machines, through the police dé@partment, “made an unholy alli- ance with the underworld and con- tributed in no small degree to the building of illicit liquor rings.” “One of the prohibition administra- tors,” he asserted, “whose headquar- ters is in a large eastern city, told = that he was of the opinion that luring the past year more speakeasies were raided by the local police for failure to pay graft than for the fact that they were obviously violating the state law as well as the federal law.
