WET STATEMENTS
Liquor Withdrawn From Bond Not
Wholly For Drink.

Some advocates of prohibition be-
come discouraged when they read in
the public prints that Notwithstanding
the facts that prohibition has become
effective In seven states since July l.
1915, the internal revenue office re-
ports an increase in revenue from dis.
titled spirits of ten million dollars,
and an increase of about seven and
one-half million gallons of liquors dis.
titled between January l, 1916, and
June 3, 1916.
The liquor journals ere loudly pro-
claiming that this means an increased
consumption of liquor despite the pro-
hiDition victories. But these figures
need to be explained and the EXPLAIN
ton fails to prove the liquor traffic's
contention, says the American Issue.
First. The Internal Revenue de-
partment admits that at least one-half
of this increase In revenue Is due to
increased efficiency in collecting.
Second This revenue is collected
by the government when the liquor
is withdrawn from the bonded ware
houses, and much has been with
drawn during the past year because
the time limit for storage in these
bonded warehouses had expired.
Third. Withdrawal from bond and
the payment Of the government tax
is never proof that the liquor has
been consumed. 1t is often withdrawn
because of time expiration and placed
In private warehouses, much of 1t Is
shipped abroad, much is used in the
arts and sciences. The National Liz
uor Dealers Journal of July IL, 1916,
on page s, says: Withdrawal from
bond may not mean increased con-
sumption"
Fourth. The fact must also be
borne in mind that since the opening
of the European War many of our
oistilleries have been kept busy dis
tilling spirits to be used in making
high explosives. Tens Of thousands Of
barrels have been shipped to Europe
sumed here as beverage. This in
creased production the liquor traffic
would have us believe means an in
creased consumption. Do not be de-
ceived.
Fifth. Midas Criterion, the great
distillers' organ, recently sent out a
blind ballot to the distillers, asking
a vote as to whether or not they be-
| lieved in a curtailment OF the amount
of liquor to be distilled during the
next year and 100 voted for produc.
| ing a smaller amount and Il voted
against II; thus "a per cent of the
distillers believe 1t Is poor business
| policy not to curtail the production
of distilled liquors.
Would these distillers favor a small.
er output IL the demand for their
goods were keeping pace with the
past production, or IL the consumptiol
were really increasing?
No one knows as well as the makers
of liquor how the demand for liquor
in this country is decreasing, and how
the amount consumed Is largely d.
minished.
A perusal of the liquor journals OF
the nation reveals the fact that the
LIQUOR trade is bad and growing worse
and liquor stock is low. Prohibition
is really prohibiting and rapidly les.
