BEER AND BREWERIES,

The brewery business Is certainly
having its troubles in these days
And the saddest part Of it is the lack
of public sympathy
There Is a feeling that speaking in
general, the brewers are getting lust

been aroused by the recent limitation
OF fuel and raw materials and other
handicaps imposed by the government

strongly against the entire liquor IN

couple of weeks before election, and
gave their usual electioneering dine
to campaigning for the current LIB

seems likely to prevail almost uni
versally
In cevry sccJlon and every state
there is marked sentiment in favor
Of concentrating on the rourth Lib

the time being. In many cases the
state, coun,y and municipal commit
tees are arranging to devote their en-
tire attention to the loan, utilizing
their regular party machinery 70 I'M

entering heartily into such nonparti.
