“ The more I read about it. Judge, the more I
realize the tactics and requirements of this war
are as different from the one I fought tn 25
years ago as night ts from day."
"Yes. and 1 can give you an example of
how true that is. Fred. In World War 1 the
chief uses of alcohol produced for war pur­
poses were found in smokeless powder, medi­
cal supplies and chemical warfare materials.
In this war the need for this product is tar
more vital because it is also used as a fuel to
propel torpedoes, to make shatterproof glass
r*u
for airplane windshieldsand instrument cov­
ers. to make lacquers used in camouflaging
equipment and as a base for synthetic rubber
needed for tires, gas masks, paratroop equip­
ment and dozens of other things.
“Every time 1 think of it. Fred, 1 realize
how fortunate we were in having a beverage
distilling industry in existence when war
broke out... ready and eager to convert
100% to the production of this critically
needed war product. I’m mighty sure boot­
leggers wouldn't have been of much help.”
