Rules Fruit JuiCe-Ciders
Come Within Dry Ban

Washington, D. C.-In on
of the broadest constructions yet
placed on provisions of the act
for enforcement of constitutional
prohibition, Prohibition Commits
sioner Kremer has ruled that
fruit juices and elders come
within the dry ban if they con-
tain more than one half one per
per cent alcohol. The commits
sioner's Interpretation of the law
was set forth today in a memo
randum charging prohibition di-
rectors and inspectors with the
added duty of examining the al
coholic contentof such beverages.
The drastic regulation went
into effect with constitutional
prohibition Jan. Is. Violation
of it carries the same penalties
for the manufacture or sale Of
stronger liquors.
Officials, in discussing the rul-
ing, asserted that such a step
could not be taken under war
time prohibition nor was it en-
forceable under the prohibition
laws of most of the states.
Hitherto, the bureau Of internal
revenue has held fast to the
policy of assessing taxes against
fermented liquors containing
more than one half of one per
cent alcohol but actually the
regulation could not be applied
to elders and fruit juices because
Of the technical language of the
law, it was said.
Strict enforcement of the regu-
lation will hold liable dealers in
fruit juices and elders in which
the alcoholic content increases
even while in storage. The de-
partment does not intend, how
ever, to guage all beverages
thus produced, officials said, but
a watchful eye" would be kept
on these manufacturers and
dealers. Natural fermentation
will offer no excuse for evasion
of the regulation, it was declared.

their formal certificates of naturaliza-
ton.

approval. At the meeting Judge Bel
den will be one of. the speakers and he
will confer the certificates of natural
ization. The program provides for
short addresses by honor students in
the school for the aliens and for short
talks by prominent Kenosha citizens.
