Prohibition in War Time.

New Yer n. Y-The Wall Street
Journal, tue most influential publi-
cation among bankers brokers. cor.

enough even when talking too mucn,
as II customarily does, the. United
States Senate is deliberative body
which will correct the foolishness OF
the lower house, most OF the time.
but unfortunately, not all of the time.
IL is sometimes foolish itself. But AT
least it killed the amendment lacked
on, without hyme or reason, to the
espionage bill by Senator Cummlns,
prohibiting the use OF grain in the
manufacture OF alcohol
This amendment was calculated TO
kill some hundred millions of tax-pay.
ing capital in the brewing industry.
without attaining any of the objects
which are supposedly at the heart
OF the prohibition party. The manu-.
facture OF whisbey, and OF all spiritu-
Gus liquors. is based on age. and the
LONGER stock can be accumulated in
bond, the better the investment of the
the manufacture Of spirits becomes.
But the manufacturer of beer does
not profess to sell old ale in any
quantity to be worth taxing. The logi-
cal consequence ~ prohibiting the
use OF grain on the Cummins' amend
ment would be to set people who
drink a comparatively harmless bev.
erage, to drinking Whiskey and other
hard spirits.
