I believe you are correct, Jimaz. Very few people are alive today to recall it, but there was some similar anxiety about the repeal of Prohibition in 1933. As a result, different states passed some very restrictive laws about alcohol, with Michigan's being some of the most stringent. [[A "control state," legally speaking.)
The social ramifications were interesting. To see people drinking alcohol in public was especially disturbing to some people. But as time went on, the benefits were clear: Organized crime lost a valuable concession, alcohol became safer, and drink lost the cachet of "forbidden fruit."
