MORE ALCOHOL MAY BE HAD
 IN 1921

Washington, Jan. 11-Alcoho] in still larger volume will pour out of warehouses during 1921. But not for ''beverage purposes" It twill be tag ged for industrial uses only" h. creased flow of alcohol out of the stor- age places is made possible by a de- cision of Secretary of the Treasury Houston, high boss in matters of rum, that many existing barriers be lifted to encourage the commercial use of alcohol. and to promote the manufacture of that product for in dustrial purposes.
 That much of the alcohol so releas- ed will be used in arts other than scientific, is accepted as true by Sec retary Houston, but he said today this view would not stand in the way Of legitimate enterprises. Steps have been taken to safeguard this heavier outgoing supply of alcohol so that the supply will be restricted to legiumate uses. Efforts will be made to pre- vent abuse of permits. Great quan- titles of pure grain alcohol have reached various legal channels of trade, but subsequently, has found it's way to bootleggers, who put it out to the trade" in some rectifled form. This alleged whisky red and fiery, and with the kick of a Missouri mule, has grain alcohol as its base, and is being peddled throughout the country as the genuine article.
 This is known to dry law officers and higher-ups. but Secretary Hous- ton, needing the protests of large busi- ness concerns interested in industrial alcohol, has determined that leg1u- mate permit holders, entitled to with draw alcohol. have been too greatly hanpered, and that they must not be allowed to suffer financial losses be- cause of illicit diversions. Houston believes the prohibitive features of the dry law will not be greatly en- dangered by the more liberal ruling which he has apDrOVed.
