Historical Context: Temperance movements began in the 1820's and 1830's with occasional wins such as Massachusetts in 1838 and Maine in 1846. The Anti-Saloon League promoted a national ban on alcohol which culminated in the ratification of the 18th Amendment which went into effect in early 1920. However it was unpopular and hard to enforce and in 1933 under the presidency of Franklin D. Roosevelt it was repealed.
