Warning Issued to Cor.
rect Impressions of
Laws Provisions
WHAT IS INTOXICATING
Law Says Cannot Make
Intoxicating Wine
Or Beer
CBy Associated Fress.D }

Washington, Sept. Warning
that the making of Intoxicating home
brew is illegal was issued tonight
by Prohibition Commissioner Haynes.
Numerous inquiries nave been re-
ceived recently, he said, concerning
the home manufacture of fruit juices
growing out of reports that head
of household was entitled to make
200 gallons of wine. a year under
permit.
The prohibition units attitude on
the home brew question was defined
by Mr.. Haynes as follows: ...
"Non intoxicating fruit juice can
be made in the home. Intoxicating
wine, home brew and distilled spirits
may not be made. Two hundred gal
Ions of Notwithstanding. fruit juice
may be manufactured, tax free, by
the head of family registering with
a collector of internal revenue.
This tax exemption provision has
been the source of confusion. The
effect of it is not to allow the manu-
facture of 200 gallons of intoxicat-
ing wine free from REPRESENTATIONS
of the national prohibition act, but
merely to allow the manufacture of
200 gallons of Notwithstanding fruit
juices free of tax.

Wants to Know If 1t Is a
Threat Or An
" Invitation
ACCEPTS INVITATION
Way Still Open For a
Conference Tending
to Peace
(By Associated Press)

London, Sept. lebanon DeVal-
era, the Irish republican leader, af-
ter a meeting of his cabinet today
sent another telegram to the British
Premier, David Lloyd George, in
which, declaring that the Sim Fein
had no thought at any time of ask
ing for the acceptance of any condi-
tions precedent to conference, he
requests the Premier to say whether
his letter of September 7 was in
tended to be a demand for surrender
or an invitation to conference "free
on both sides and without prejudice
should an agreement not be reached" I"
In the latter case, Mr.. DeValera
states that he would confirm the
Sim Fein acceptance of the invita-
ton and the Irish delegates would
meet the Representatives of the gov
ernment.
Suggests Treaty
Mr.. DeValera also suggests the
conclusion Of a treaty of accomo-
dation and association" expressing
the belief that this would "end the
dispute forever and enable the two
nations to settle down. n peace"
The nature of the message neces-
states a further exchange of tele-
grams unless some sort of an ulti-
matum is Forthcoming. Mr.. DeValera
wired:
"We have had no thought at any
time of asking you to accept any
conditions precedent to a conference.
We whould have thought it is as un-
reasonable to expect you as the pre-
liminary to recognize the Irish re-
public formally or informally as that
you should expect us formally or in
formally to surrender our national
position. 1t is precisely because nei-
ther side accepts the position of the
other that there is a dispute at all
and that conference is necessary
to search for and discuss such ad-
iustments as might compose it."
