came dry" from border to border to-
night at midnight. The Statewide prohi-
bition law, so written that intoxicating
liquor may not be manufactured, sold
given away or shipped into the State
except for medical and sacramental pur-
poses, took effect at that hour
Members of the Indiana Anti-Saloon
League estimated that 3,4OO saloons in the
State closed their doors. They estimated
that 30 breweries in the State were af-
fected and possibly IL to Is distillers.
The closing of all places where liquor
might be purchased followed strenuous
efforts Of the "wets" to have the law
declared unconstitutional. The Indiana
supreme court heard oral arguments in
two cases involving the law to-day, but
no decision was rendered.
