DRINK ERS' LAST RESORT
Home Made Wine, Says Counsel for
Brewers

New York, Jan. 16-Homc made
wine, from "dcviccs already on til?
market for making alcoholic bcvcr-
ages in the home" will be the last
resort of drinkers under nation wide
prohibition, according to a statement
tonight by VIM. II. IIirst, counsel for
the United States Brewers Associa-
tlon. Mr.. lIirst asserted that "pco-
pie are going to have wine just as
lolG as nature produces tIe mate
rials"
"Alrcady there are devices on the
market for making alcoholic bevcr-
ages in the home" he said. "Ncithcr
a federal amendment nor any other
device can stop the American people
from making their own vine"
The bright lights Of some of New
York's cabarcts will not be dimmcd
by prohibition, according to their
managers, who said their establish
mcnts were 'primarily restaurants
and liquor is not the largest item in
our business"

Safe Burglarized ct Tollaud

The safe in the Clifton & Evans
store in Tolland was bur-
glarized last night by yeggs who
entered by the rear door of the
building, boring hole in the
back door large enough to admit
their hand to unlock it. They got
into the safe by boring hole
and breaking the dial, enabling
them to work the tumblers with a
wire.
They secured $4,000 in the
money order fund, 90 thrift
stamps and 10 war stamps. This
was all the property of the gov
ernment and was taken from the
postoffice department of the
store. The safe was broken into
sometime between l and 2 o'clock
as near as Fred Fricke can re-
member. He lives next door to
the Clifton G. Evans store and
heard the noise at about that
time.
All that was taken from the
store was a shot gun and box
of cartridges.
Sheriff BAGS went to Tolland as
soon as he heard of the safe
breaking and a government agent
also came up from Denver. A
reward of $4,000 is offered by
the government for the arrest of
the guilty parties. The work
gives evidence of having been
done by professionals.
