BEER RULING IS
UP TO PALMER
Question Raised by Root Opinion
Goes to Attorney General.
lot SURE WHAT BEER IS
Revenue Chiefs at Washington Hold
Many Conferences Over vexing
ProbIem-Donit Know What
to Do With Brewers.

Washington. March 19.-Answer to
the question of when beer is legally
beer and whether it may contain %
per cent alcohol without being official
ly considered intoxicating, was sought
by internal revenue bureau officials in
existing statutes, court decisions and
administrative regulations, but with
no definite conclusion.
Pending a decision by the legal di-
vision of the bureau and an opinion by
Attorney General Palmer, Commission
er Roper declined TO say what he
would do In case New York brewers
carry out their announced intention of
resuming manufacture and sale of
beer containing 2A per cent alcohol
under President Wilson's recent order
permitting the making of near beer"
Hold Many Conferences.
Internal revenue bureau officials held
number OF conferences. The bu-
reau's legal experts argued that all
precedents of acts of congress and of
revenue bureau practices point to the
rule that If beer contains one-half of
per cent or more alcohol it is intoxi-
eating and is taxable as real beer.
Drinks to be soft" Notwithstanding
and "nonalcoholic" must contain less
than One-half of 1 per cent alcohol.
they said.
Therefore, it was argued that the
presidents order of last September 16
forbade the use of grain or other food
products in making beer with one-half
per cent more of alcohol.
Commissioner Roper, however, de
cided to fortify himself fully and ar
ranged to call on the department of
justice for an opinion.
Barred After May 1.
In any event, officials said. the
manufacture of beer with more than
one-half per cent alcohol is prohibited
after May 1 under the food conserva.
ton provision of the act of November
q, 1918. 1t was understood that New
York brewers, however, did not agree
with this view.
Various provisions of recent revenue
acts were cited by bureau officials in
support of the contention that one
half per cent is the maximum for non.
Intoxicating beverages. The revenue
act of 1917 provided a tax of $3.50 .
barrel on beer and other fermente6
malt liquors containing one-half pei
cent or more of alcohol" 1t also lai6
a special tax on soft drinks, including
"fermented liquors containing less
than one-half per cent of alcohol"
Anti-Saloon league leaders are de
pending upon the specific mention OF
beer and wine in the wartime prohibit
ton act to make it unnecessary to
prove that beer is Intoxicating in or
der to prevent its sale after July l.
