FRUIT JUICES AND
elders WITHIN BAN

Washington In one of the broadcast
visions of the act for the enforcement
of constitutional prohibition, Prohibi-
ton Commissioner Kremer has ruled
that fruit juices and elders come with
than one-half of l per cent alcohol.
The commissioner interpretation of
the law was set forth Thursday in a
memorandum charging prohibition d.
rectors and inspectors with the added
duty of examining the alcoholic con-
tents of such beverages.
The drastic regulation goes into eff
feet with constitutional prohibition on
January 16. Violation of it carries the
same penalties as for the manufacture
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 enforceable under the prohi-
bition laws Of most of the states. Hith-
ertO the bureau or INTERNAL revenue
has held fast to the policy of assessing
taxes against fermented liquors con-
tanning more than one-half of l per
cent, but the regulations could not be
applied to elders and fruit juices be-
cause of the technical 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 con-
tent increases even while in storage.
The department does not intend, how.
ever, to gauge all beverages thus pro-
duced, officials said, but a "watchful
eye" would be kept on these manufac-
turers and dealers. Natural fermenta-
ton will offer no excuse for evasion
of the regulation, it is declared.

BraziIPs Anniversary.

The recent celebration Of the ami
versary of Brazilian independence
brings to mind several interesting
facts concerning this growing nation.
Brazil, with the exception of Cuba, is
the youngest of the Latin-American
republics. Unlike Cuba. however,
Brazil enjoyed independence long be-
fore the change of government came.
Again, most unlike it's sister republics
of Spanish America, Brazil effected the
radical change without bloodshcd.
Dom Pedro was Il wise, ms well as a
lovable, monarch; when he saw that
the majority opinion favored repnb-
lican form of administration, he gra
ciously abdicated and retired from
public life If only certain European
monarchs had possessed similar fore
