WW1 enhanced the economic arguments used by drys at the time, in particularly the Anti-Saloon League. Firstly, alcohol reduced the productivity of workers-when America's factories needed to be producing more food/munitions as they were at war, alcohol reduced America's economic output. Secondly, the grain used to make beer could have been (and was post-prohibition) used to make bread to feed the soldiers in Europe. And thirdly, many breweries in America were German. Although their profit didn't go to Germany, Americans didn't want to buy German products from the breweries of the German immigrants as they were at war with that nation.
