Me brought out an interesting ixiint in his

that while the beverage distillers are work

out war alcohol for the government for
ammunition, tires, medical supplies and
chemicals, they still are able to account tor
nearly a billum and a half dollars in taxes
each year. That’s on account of the fact the
leverage distillers, though working 100*«
for the government, are still able to supply
the public with beverages from the reserve
stocks made during jreacetime.
