    The correct answer is The Volstead Act provided for the enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment.

    This means that prohibition laws could now be enforced in bars and saloons all over the United States. The amendment itself didn't define what intoxicating alcohols actually means and it didn't mention penalties. It just enabled for legislature like the Volstead Act to establish all this and for it to be constitutional.
