FRUIT JUICE JAG
 MAY LAND YOU
 IN LAWS HANDS.

Washington, Jan. 15.-In one of the broadest construc- tions yet placed on provisions of the act enforcement of con- Istitutional prohibition. Pro- hibition Commissioner Krem- CT has ruled that fruit juices and elders come within the dry ban if they contain more than one-half of one per cent alcohol. The law was sent forth in a memorandum charging prohibition direct ors and inspectors with the added duty of examining he alcoholic content of such bev- erages.
 The drastic regulation went into effect with constitutional prohibition January 16. Vii olation of it carries the same penalties as for the manu- fracture or sale of stronger liquors.
 Officials, in discussing the ruling asserted that such a step could not be taken under wartime prohibition nor was it enforcible under the prohi- bition laws of most of the States. Hitherto the bureau of interest revenue has held fast to the policy of assessing taxes against fermented liq- uors containing more than one-half of one per cent, but the regulations could not be applied to elders and fruit juices because of the tech nical language of the law, it was said.
 Strict enforcement of the regulation will hold liable dealers in fruit juices and elders in which the alcoholic contents increaese even while in storage. The department does not intend, however, to guage all beverages thus pro- duced, officials said, but a "watchful eye" would be kept on these manufacturers and dealers. Natural fer mentation will offer no ex- cuse for evasion of the regu- lation, it was declared.-Ark- ansaS Democrat.

 Note: (a) Under Che new amendment if the dis abled person is so helpless as to be in constant need of a nurse or attendant, an ad- ditional allowance is provided. in the discretion of the Direct or, not exceeding $2O.OO

 (b) Both under the w. R. I. Act and under the new law, compensation for the loss of both feet or both hands or the sight of both eyes, or for be- coming helpless and perma- nently bedridden is $10O.. .00.

 "If and while the disability is rated as partial and tenn porary, the monthly compen- sation shall be a percentage of the compensation that would be payable for total and temporary disability, equal to the degree of the re- duction in earning capacity resulting from the disability"
 ''If and while the disability is rated as partial and per manent, the monthly com pensation shall be payable for total and permanent dis ability equal to the degree of the reduction in earning capacity resulting from the disability"
 Note: In no case is com pensation payable for a re- duction in earning capacity rated at less than 10 per cent.
