Much Alcohol

Washington, July 15.-Sections OF

were delivered a body blow today by
Commissioner Cabell of the internal
revenue bureau. who gave out a list OF
more than 200 preparations which
hereafter may be handled by drug
stores only after the government IL
,uor license is paid.
These preparations. including many
well known. because of their wide ad-
vertisement, were examined by the
chemists of the treasury department
and held to be insufficiently medieated
to render them unfit for use as a bev-
erage or to take them out OF the class
II alcoholic beverages.
Treasury department officials said
they believed that many of these prep
arations were concocted mainly for
sale In dry territories" where the pro-
hibition laws made 1t impossible to OBJ
tain legally anything with liquor ia
vor.
Secretary McFeagh has issued an
order fixing a standard Of medication
to govern the chemists OF the internal
revenue bureau In passing on the ques-
ton Of the AMOUNT Of alcohol that may
be used In medicinal preparations in
the future. SO that they may come
within the requirements OF law. AL

amount necessary to hold In solution
