CAN USE CIDER AT HOME.
Opinion of Attorney General Upsets Rev.
enue Officers Rulings.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 2O-Use of
cider in the home Of its manufacturer,
even after it has become Intoxicating by
fermentation, is lawful and without the
bounds Of the prohibition enforcement
act, according to an opinion submitted to
the secretary OF the treasury by Attorney
General Palmer. sa
The opinion Is in direct conflict with
the regulations Of the bureau ofsinternal
revenue, which state that homemade
cider must be notwithstanding an fact
although not necessarily containing less
than one-half of / per cent of alcohol.
Congress intended by section % to, nro.
hibit the sale but not the manufacture aof
Intoxicating cider for use in the home,
the opinion said.
While the opinion is binding on the
treasury. prohibition enforcement officials
ntimated that Mr.. Palmer might be
asked to reconsider his decision in view
Of the conflict between his contention and
the existing regulations.
