BUSINESS FEELS EFFECT OF BEER Y NEW YORK, April . (AP) The Associated Business Papers, Inc., summerlzing reports from 116 trade publications throughout the country, finds that "the effect of beer on business" has already been translated Into expeditures of millions of dol lars. "A Burvey shows," the summary states, "that hotels and restaurants are sepndlng $65,000,000 for modern isation and new equipment to meet expected trade. "Chemical producers feel a strong demand from bottle and glassware makers. Electrlo power equipment makers are filling orders traceable to beer. Electrlo refrigerator manu facturers are rushing heavy orders of beer-cooling equipment, and a great Increase In corn and rye mill ing Is credited to beer." The editors point out, .however, that "bakeries may be hard hit be cause beer is a carbohydrate like bread and because cake and pie may lose popularity at beer drinkers' meals." It was thought, though, that ice cream should not suffer particularly, "since ice cream consumption In creased during previous beer years." TOTAL HUGE SI WASHINGTON, April J. &) Frank T.
