END OF WHISKEY MAKING

throughout the nation at IL o.
clock Friday night last, when
the prohibitive clause of the
Food Control act became effec-
tive, Millions of bushels OF
grain which would otherwise be
ground up for whiskey will thus
be released for food. How
many millions no one knows, for
the manufacture of alcohol for
beverage purpose is so closely
blended with the production of
alcohol for industrial and medi-
cinal purposes that there is no
way of determining the exact
amount.
Of the 100000 bushels of
grain, or Whereabouts, which
goes into the distilleries each
year, about 40.per cent. experts
estimate, come out in the form
of whiskey and other distilled
beverage drinks. The remand
er, made into alcohol of exactly
the same characteristics as that
used for whiskey, eventually
finds its way into perfume, toilet
waters, bay rum, medicines and
to industries where denatured
alcohol is used in ever-increasing
quantities.
Approximately 116, 900, 900 gal
Ions of whiskey are produced
each year by American distiller-
les. Production Of alcohol by
the same distilleries for CONNER
cial and medicinal use other than
beverages approximates LAG, OOO,-
900 gallons. The manufacture
of alcohol for the latter purposes
will continue as usual, probably
in greater volume, and few of
the larger distilleries, if any,
will have to shut down.
The class of distilleries which
will be put out of business is
composed almost entirely of
small plants operated by from
one to half dozen men located in
California, Ohio and New Jersey
and producing brandy from
grapes, apples and peaches.
These produce approximately g.
600, 900 gallons a year. Those
in New Jersey and Ohio, officials
believe, will suspend operations
entirely. The California plants,
it is thought, will continue to
operate, in part, for the manu-
facture of spirits for fortifying
sweet wine.
So far as public officials can
learn, there are few distilleries
in the United States, with the
exception of the fruit brandy
plants, producing whiskey at the
present time. Summer is the
off season for whiskey produc-
ton, which is confined almost
wholly to the winter months,
the early spring and the late fall.
Stopping whiskey manufac-
ture, instead of curtailing the
Governments revenues will in
crease them for the next two
years, officials believe. Coupled
with the operation of the pend
ing revenue bill, the withdrawal
of Whiskey from the stock al
ready accumulated will probably
treble the revenue within the
next IL months, as the present
law imposes a tax of $1.10 and
the revenue bill contemplates a
tax of $500 a gallon. A stock
of approximately 230, 900, 900
gallons has accumulated in the
bonded warehouses and on the
shelves of wholesale and retail
liquor dealers. Approximately
100000, 600 gallons are in ware
houses and upon that quantity
the Government will collect tax
es as it is withdrawn.
There are approximately 700
distilleries in the country, of
which more than half are small
