THE OLD JUDGE SAYS..
"Judge, remember that place up in the moun
tains where we went trout fishing last year?"
" 1 sure do, George. We had a great time
up there, didn't we?"
"I'll never forget it. But this will interest
you, Judge. 1 heard just yesterday that the
.revenue men raided a big still right near
.there. Guess that's where all that high
priced moonshine we heard about has been
coming from."
" Wouldn't be a bit surprised. I saw in the
paper the other day where the Government
has raided thousands ot such stills during
the past year."
"Sounds sort of reminiscent, doesn't it,
Judge?"
"Exactly and it's not hard to figure out.
As soon as the distillers stopped making
whiskey and devoted their entire facilities to
the production of industrial alcohol for the
Government ... the racketeers muscled in
again."
"I hate to think of how that might have
spread, Judge, if the Government hadn't
found it possible, without interfering with
our war effort in any way, to permit a
short resumption of legal whiskey produc
tion recently."
