Poor Quality and High Price of
Once Noted Beverage ls
Given N C:as,sa

Poor beer ct high prices has resulted
In . noteworthy decrease in the per
capita csnsumptien in B.wsxie Of the
liquid fer which that German state was
onee noted. according to statements
made by the brewers Of Munich at a
recent meeting held for the purpose Of
taking steps to protect their industry.
and reported by Consul John O. Wood.
attached to the American Commission
n Berlin. Evidence was produced to
sncw that fArmars we're drinking more
MIX and less beer, staying away from
the beer halls a. night and making
more deposits In the banks. 1t was
tad to the breweriss {, better quality Of
baer would Be produced, 70 the ad-
vantage OF the Industry and the salts
faction Of its patrons.
Tho brewing interests stated that
home beer contained only about 4 per
cent sold maater, while beer for export
had IL to IA per cent, due to the fact
that foreign buyers we're furnishing
brewing materials under contracts that
required that the finished goods be de-
livered to them in their country, so
that to-day better beer is obtainable in
Switzerland than in Bavaria. Beer is
liter (l7 cents quart, at normal rate
of exchange), compared with 23 pfen-
nlgs before the war. Workers in the
industry get three and four marks an
hour, compared with so to 80 pfennigs
before the war. Hops sold at 300
marks a bale before the war, while in
December, 1919, the price was 1900
marks a bale.
Nevertheless, all the breweries are
paying dividends, and the demand for
beer is greater than the supply. Ba-
varia exported over 100000 worth of
beer annually to the United States be-
fore the war and now this field is
closed. Hops also were exported to
100000. The local demand, however,
will absorb the entire hop crop for
some time to come and dealers are
considering the question of importing
American hops. AS result of an
analysis recently made by an official
laboratory, the opinion is expressed
that American hops will not be used
to any great extent in Bavarian brew
cries on account of their inferior
quality. But brewers in other coun-
tries have stated that the American
hops have given excellent results.
There are twenty breweries in
Munlch, Gil IN operation, turning out
about so per cent Of their normal pre-
war output. In consequence Of govern
ment regulations compelling these and
other industries to employ workers
that wore not absolutely necessary, in
order to decrease the number of unem-
ployed, there are as many persons en-
ployed tn the brcweries as before the
war. A lack of coal and scarcity of
used in brewing has made it
to run full time.-Spring- :

Stewart Browne Declares
40 Per Cent Of Apartment

Stewart Browne, president Of thu
United Real Estate Owners Assoc,a.
ton, said yesterday that the census
figures for Manhattan, announced in
Washington Saturday, are incorrect
and that 1t is impossible for the popu-
lation Of the borough to have dropped
from 2,331,542 in 1910 to 2,284,103 in
1920.
He said chat 10 per cent Of the resi-
dents Of hotels. apartment hotels sad
large apartment houses had net been

They merely left census forms with

Whole Blocks Not Csuvaasel
"a man who WAS deing census work

had been ignored. Persons wha weTc
out Of town were net counted.
"WAy, It's impossible that the pspu.
latton Of Manhattan could have dc.

housing space Of the borough was
vacant at that time. Landlords were

Since then hundreds of large

There's no space now. One can't find
place to live. And figures show that
the population has decreased.
"Consider the increased figures
showing how many more persons travel
in the subway than in past years. Con-
slider the number of persons carried in
the new subways, the bus lines, the
elevated and the surface cars. Every
thing points to an increase in popula-
tion in Manhattan"
London Claims First Place
Despite the census figures giving
New York 5,621,151, London claims to
be the largest city in the world. A
dispatch from London yesterday said
that an official census in 1914 showed
a population of 7,419,704. Since then
the increase is estimated at million.
This assumption is based on the regis

German Flags Are Absent
At Turnverein Program

Absence of German flags marked the
celebration of the seventieth anniver-
sary Of the New York Turn Verein
yesterday. Formerly those in flag ex-
ercises carried German colors. The
audience included many who noted the
change, but John P. Heintz, seventy
eight years old, president of the vet

welcomed the adherence to the Amer
lean flag alone.
"Never backward, always forward" !"
as Karl Roth, ninety-year- veteran
wrote from Mount Vernon, expressed
the mood OF the seventeen surviving
Turn Verein pioneers who followed the
United States flag in the sixities.
After the rising generation had
drilled with rifles, tumhled, danced and
played the acrobat for parents, who
swore they could "skin the cat" as
we'll in their day, Bern W. Weller,
president, spoke in German.

THRONCS CROWD
CITY FOR WEEK
Opening Day of Fare Refund
Week Attracts Consumers
to Pensacola.

Fare Refund Week started off with
a rush and indications are that this
week will attract many visitors to
the city from surrounding towns. AS
a magnet to draw outside trade local
merchants have announced marked
reductions. some being as great as
fifty per cent. All visitors who make
purchases will have their railroad fare
refunded under the rules laid down
by the Retail Merchants association.
Saturday afternoon the stores and
sidewalks on Palafox street became
crowded and as evening came on pc
destrians literally swarmed along the
sidewalks. It was a jolly throng and
reminded one of the multitudes that
infested the business district in the
good old days.
Fare Refund Week continu e s
through next Saturday, and almost
every store has knocked the props
from under the high cost of living.
Residents to surrounding towns as
well as those from the farming dis
trict should come to Pensacola this
week and save money as well as have
a good time. Almost any store win
tell them how to get their fare re-
turned.
