So? That's my point isn't it?

Didn't it take a Constitutional AMENDMENT to bring about the Prohibition?

Nope. It took a Constitiutiional amendment to make Prohibition the NATIONAL law of the land. There were plenty of dry towns and dry counties and even dry states BEFORE "Prohibition," and those "dry laws" were NOT found unconstitutional (nor are they now).
