IN EFFECT THE FIRST DAY OF
THE MONTH.
SOME IMP0RTAN CHANGES
More Liberal Promises Regarding the
Establishment of Warehouses
Liquor May Now Be Made From
Almost Any Old Thing That Farm
ers May Have.

Washington, d. c., Sept.1.-The de-
natured alcohol regulations made nec-
essary by the amendatory act passed
by the last congress, come into effect
today. The old regulations were
found to be unnecessarily stringent at
some points and the new regulations
will liberalize materially the govern
ment's method of handling the de-
natured alcohol industry.
Under the new regulations, in ad-
dition to denaturing warehouses on
distillery premises, central denaturing
warehouses may be constructed at
such points as business interests may
require, and alcohol may be transferr-
ed from denaturing warehouses by
means of tanks OR tank cars to con-
sumers. Manufacturers using COM
pletely denatured alcohol are not re-
quircd to swear to an application for
permit.
One of the most important features
OF the regulations is that relating to
the construction and operation of in
dustrial or farm sdistilleries, which
may produce alcohol from anything
that contains fermentable matter In
dustrial distiieries are divided into
two classes. In the first class are
placed distiller1es of a surveyed ca
pacity of fifty proof gallons Distiller-
les of the second class are those that
produce more than fifty gallons and
less than one hundred gallons of dis
titled spirits daily.
Manufacturers using specially de-
natured alcohol are under the new
regulations relieved from keeping a
record of the goods in the manufac-
ture of which denatured alcohol is
used
