The annual meeting OF the United
States Brewers association was re-
Gently held in New Orleans. Com
menting on the printed report OF that
meeting. Henry J. Allen, In the wich'
tia Beacon says:
We note that the deepest concern OF
the annual meeting was, as usual, for
the taxpayer. They made II perfectly
plain to everybody that so far as the
brewers themselves we're concerned.
they didn't care anything for prohibi.
tion-they could. In fact. sell more
booze under prohibition than without
it-but they did not want the govern
ment to lose the revenue. they didn't
want the taxpayer burdened; they
Just wanted everything to go on In q
free and easy and open way. with the
taxpayer as he Ia now In the states
where the saloons run tho politics.
And above all. the brewers urged
moderation" not In drinking. but In
the language with which the discus
sions against liquor are carried on.
They also desire TO save the hop and
barley fields from being destroyed.
While prohibition increases beer sales,
II apparently ruins the hop and barley
crops.
One gem from the wisdom OF this
convention is that beer may be sub
stituted for bread"
Frequently II is also substituted for
shoes and school books and clothes
and meat and house rent and furni.
ture. In fact. q liberal use OF II will
make II q substitute for everything
except the grave.
Another piece OF philosophy gar
nered from the book OF brewers wis
dom 10 that the only difference be
tween bread and beer is that bread IL
baked. while beer is boiled"
II did not add. however. that tho
user OF II Is frequently stewed.
