Beware of the Law If By Chance You Have
A Little ''Still'' of Your Own Hidden Away
In Your Cellar, Warn Revenue Officials

the production of distilled spirits
for commercial or beverage pur-
poses are presumed to be intended
for such use, and in consequence
the manufacture thereof envelopes
the manufacturer in special tax
liabilities as above. In order to re-
move such presumption in the case
OF stills and worms intended to be
used in the manufacture of essen
tials, oils, vinegar and like products
and in publication of water (other
than small glass laboratory stills)
the person from whom such still is
made will be required to submit to
the collector evidence under oath
showing that the still is not to be
used for the production of spirits
and setting forth specifically the
actual purposes for which it Is to
be used
The manufacturer of any still,
boiler, or any vessel to be used for
the purpose OF distilling, must, be-
fore the same is removed from the
place of manufacture, notify in
In which such still, boiler. or other
vessel is to be set up, by whom it Is
to be used, its capacity and the
time when same is to be removed
from the place of manufacture.
Manufacturers of stills for indus
trial distflleries are exempt from a
special tax for the manufacture of
such stills but they are required to
obtain permit for their removal in
the usual manner. Penalty for fail
ure to file return of special tax
within the time prescribed by law
is rs per centum of the amount Of
tax. Penalty for carrying on the

without having paid the special tax
required by law, is fine OF not less
than 800 or more than $4,000 and
Imprisonment of not less than 80
days or more than two years.
Must be Registered.
All stills set up whether intend
ed for use or not must be register
ed with the collector of the district
on Form &c in duplicate. This ap-
plies to all stills of whatever size
or for whatever purpose intended,
whether for distiliation of spirits or
for pharmaceutical or other pur-
poses, except as to the small glass
laboratory stills. Penalty for failure
to register still is forfeiture of the
still or distilling apparatus which
is not so registered, together with
all personal property in the pos
session or custody or under control
of such offender, and found in the
building or in any yard or en-
closure connected with the building
in which the same may be set up.
The person whose duty it is to reg
lister such still, for failure to do so,
is subject to penalty of$5O0 and
a fine of not less than 800 or more
than $1,000 and Imprisonment OF
not less than l month or more than
two years.
A person who makes a mash fit
for distillation is held to be a dis
tiller, even though he does not vap-
orize or condense the spirit. A mash
fit for distillation is a fermented
beer in which alcohol is generated
and from which such alcohol may
be removed or separated by use of
still or otherwise. Obviously the
making of such a mash is not per-
MISSILE in the home brewing of
beer or home production Of spirits
since 1t renders the manufacturer
liable as an Illicit distiller. Penalty
for Illicit distiIlation is forfeiture of
the distillery and distilling ap-

"In view of the imminence OF the
condition OF national prohibition 1t
is believed that all persons manu-
featuring, selling or using stills.
should be fully advised of their
liability under the federal law" is
the warning recently issued from
the office of the commissioner of in
ternal revenue, Washington, con-
tanned in letter received by the 10
cal revenue collector. Accordingly,
the following statement of the laws
relating to this subject and the
penalties for their violation is here
by promulgated.
Under federal laws and regula-
tons manufacturers Of stills are re-
Quired to pay an annual special tax
of $50 and in addition thereto, $zO
for each still or worm for distilling
made by them. All persons. firms or
corporations thus manufacturing q
still or worm to be used in distill-
ing are deemed manufacturer OF
stills. This applies to all stills cap
able OF the production of distilled
spirits, but does not apply to small
laboratory stills USUALLY CLASSY for
legitimate laboratory purposes, or
to water stills which are not cap
able Of and intended for the produc-
ton of distilled spirits. Ordinarily,
laboratory stills are small, con-
structed OF glass and not adapted to
the production OF distilled spirits in
commercial quantities, and many
water stills are also Of such con-
struction that they are not adapted
to the commercial production Of dis
titled spirits.
Stills are Taxed.

distilled spirits found on the distil-
lery premises, and fine of not less
than $500 or more than $4,000, and
Imprisonment of not less than SIX
months or more than three years.
In addition to penalties above
cited, attention is called to sub-sec-
ton II of section 1901 of the reve-
nue. act of 1918, which establishes
additional special taxes in certain
cases and which reads as follows:
Every person carrying on the
business of brewer, distiller,
wholesale liquor dealer, retail
liquor dealer, wholesale dealer in
malt liquor, retail dealer in malt
liquor, or manufacturer of stills. as
defined in section 3244 as, amended,
and section 3247 of the revised
statutes, in any state, territory or
district of the United States, con-
trary to the laws of such state, ter
ritory or district. or in any place
therein in which carrying on such
business is prohibited by local or
municipal laws shall pay, in addi-
ton to all of the taxes, special or
otherwise, imposed by existing law
or by this act, $1,000
1.-THE so-called wartime prohibi-
ton law imposes for its violation a
penalty of Imprisonment not ex-
ceeding 1 year or $1,000 fine or
both"
