MUCH LIQUOR
 T0BE ON HAND
 IN JULY NEXT

WASHINGTON, March 13.-Nation. | al prohibition next July 1 will find only about 50,O00,OOO gallons of liquor in bonded warehouses, barred from disposition for beverage purposes, if
 the present demand for whisky con. tinues during intervening months. Of ficials who have observed the effect of high taxes in the past believe, however that withdrawals from bond will decrease under the new revenue law, and that between 60,OOO,00O and 75,O00,000 gallons will be left in ware houses July 1.
 It is conceded that it is impossible to foresee the effect of approaching prohibition on the demand for liquor to be stored away by consumers, and officials say big movement of buying even under the increased tax, may develop and leave the quantity of liquor left in bond smaller than the advance estimates.
 The estimates do not take into con- sideration liquor which may be stored in cellars or attics of prospective con- sumers. Nor do they include any stocks which wholesale or retail deal CTS may not sell before the prohibition waves catches tkem. These are not measurable by any official reports.
 Revenue bureau officials calculate that at present bonded warehouses connected with distilleries, but under lock and key of government agents, hold less than 9O,0O0,0O0 of the 20O,- 000,000 gallons in stock when manu- facture, ceased September g, 1917 under the food conservation act. With drawals in January and February have been less than 10,OOO,Oo0 or more gallons in December, according to in dications based on preliminary reports from revenue agents.
 On January first 112,000,000 gallons of distilled spirits were reported in bond, including 6,6O0,000 gallcns not available for beverage purposes. About 15 per cent of those figures must be deducted as allowance for leakage and evaporation from barrels. On December 1, the latest date for which itemized figures are available, the stock of distilled spirits in bond was distributed as follows. Whisky, 08,846,000 gallons; rum, 606,000; gin, 2,338.O0o; alcohol, 5,7eO,Ooo; refined alcohol or high wines" 3,744,Oo0; and brandy, 2,316,O0O.
 The normal rate of demand, meas ured by withdrawal from bond, had been between 4,5OO,OOO and 6,O00,OO0 gallons a month until last October, when withdrawals jumped to S,35S, 1000. In November they were 9,597,O0O, and in December it is estimated they ran over 10,000,000 gallons, while in Janu- ary and February indications are that the demand probably was nearer g. 0OO,0OO gallons. Most of this liquor was taxed when taken out of the bonded warehouse at the rate of $3.20 gallon. Under the new revenue act, the rate is doubled, amounting to $640. Consequently the increase amounts to $32O gallon or 80 cents a quart, and the aggregate tax per quart is $1.60.
 By terms of the pending bill pro- viding for enforcement of prohibition under the constitutional amendment effective next January 16, the Presi- dent would be empowered to appro- priate for government purposes the stock of liquor left unused in ware houses. The price to be paid for this would be determined by agreement or by special commission.
