Wartime prohibition, when the country took its first step towards a dry basis, began two years ago to day, (in that day nil sales of liiiuiu for internal consumption was pin hibitted by law.

Diiiiug the first lwo years of pro hibition, the country has consumed more than 40. 000. 000 gallons of liq uor, iu-if riling to reports on with drawals from bonded warehouses. 1'rohlbltlon unit officials say that part of this reached bootleggers and was consumed internally, although the permits under which It wan with drawn were intended to prevent the use of liquor except for non-beverage put poses.
