In Congress was one to reduce the tax
on beer s1O,OOO.OOO. The proposed
reduction of the war tax $S4.OOO,Ooo
would be quite relief If equitaoly

alone aboat Que third tof the entire
amount of reduction seems unjust.
Under the previous law beer was
taxed S1.OO per barrel, under the
present law $1.85 per barrel, ano
they have enlarged their plants, ano
are making money. The plain. una
yoidable truth g, that the Brewer
hold whip over the Jaw makers
The interest OF the Brewer is protect

explain the exorbitant demands Tie
