ley de prohibición de la guerra (1918) [durante la guerra]
Sin saber demasiado del tema, y viendo lo que ya se ha sugerido (que creo que tiene bastante validez), si se necesita matizar, yo usaría algo como lo que sugiero.
O tal vez ¿"Ley de Prohibición en tiempo de Guerra"... ?

TO PROVIDE FOR THE ENFORCEMENT OF WAR PROHIBITION.
The term War Prohibition Act used in the Act shall mean the provisions of any Act or Acts prohibiting the sale and manufacture of intoxicating liquors until the conclusion of the present war and thereafter until the termination of demobilization, the date of which shall be determined and proclaimed by the President of the United States.

Saludos cordiales.
