Plans are already on foot to use the
breweries for some essential war In
dustry. Questionnaires have been sent
to all Of the brewery owners and man
ayers with view of ascertaining the
advisability of converting the <breweries
into refrigerator or storage plants. The
answers look with disfavor on the sug-
gestion because of what the brewers
claim would be the enormous and al
r,cet rrnhihitive cost Of remodeling.
These answers indicate that the ma
jority Of the brewers have no ideas
relative to the use to which the brew
cries shall be put.

In Milwaukee.

Milwaukee, Sept. 19.-Approximate-
ly 10000 brewery employees, 5000 OF
them in Milwaukee, will be affected by
the order OF the federal food admins
tration prohibiting the manufacture of
beer and malt liquors after Dec. l.
Owners of the leading breweries of
Milwaukee have declined to discuss
the order and have referred all in
quiries to William II. Austin, counsel
for the Milwaukee Brewers Associa-
ton and the Wisconsin Brewers As
ISOLATION. Mr.. Austin represents eleven
breweries in Milwaukee and sixty-fi
in the state.
"At the present rate of consumption
the stocks of beer now, on hand should
last about two months after produc-
ton ceases, or until about Feb. l." he.
said.
II do not think that the brewery
plants will be available for any kind
Of war production. Not only is the
machinery useless, but the buildings
themselves are not adapted to new
kinds Of work. The interiors would
have to be entirely torn out, and even
the outer walls would not be suitable
because Of the lack Of outside windows.
I think the breweries will stand idle.
Nothing can be said for the pr4eent
concerning the reinvestment Of capital
THE order took the brewers completely
by surprise. They have made no plans"
Milwaukee has 1900 saloons which
pay $500, 900 In license money annually
In Milwaukee breweries there are hun
dreds of men who have been In the
same work for twenty-five years or
longer and are unframed for other

Lower quotations on hogs weakened

In the late dealings pork advanced
