in the early 1900s, to be dry meant that cities restricted the sale and consumption of alcohol.

This concept involved the cities in which alcoholic beverage was banned. Therefore, cities with shortage or without alcoholic beverage was considered to be dry. Consequently, sales or purchases  along with transportation and manufacturing of these beverages were prohibited in the dry cities or states. In US  laws were introduced in order to prohibit the alcoholic beverages. By 1920, nationwide ban was adopted by the states.

How might the overall atmosphere of the 1920s have contributed to the failure of prohibition?
Afina-wow [57]
Prohibition would have failed regardless of the atmosphere, because people like to drink alcohol. The permisive attitude of the times (mild compared to today) meant there was little social stigma attached to those who ignored prohibition. People finally came to realize that all they did was stregnthen the mob and lose tax revenues with Prohibition.
