PROHIBITION DIRECTOR
ISSUES STATEMENT

The Republican Is in receipt of the
following communication from Fed
eral Prohibition Director Carl Jack
son:
Rawlins Republican.
A good many inquiries have been
received by this office recently. re-
latiye to the sale of malt extract
and syrups. etc. For information of
those interested | wish to make the
following statement and will appre-
ciate any publicity given same.
Section IS of Title II of the Ma
tional Prohibition Act reads as fol-
lows: at shall be unlawful to ad-
vertise. manufacture. sell or possess
for sale, any %utensil. co~ntrivance,
machine preparation, compound.

or receipt advertised, designed or in
tended for use in the unlawful man
ufacture of intoxicating liquor"
Under this Section it is illegal to

or coils. malt extracts or syrups. I'M

must or any fermentable material.

ture Of liquor for use in the home
or elsewhere for beverage purposes.
1t is a violation of the section to
manufacture. sell or possess for sale.
except to a person holding a permit
under the National Prohibition Act.
malt extract with hops and clarifier
for the manufacture of cereal beV-
erageS or malt liquor.
There is a widespread impression
! that it is legal to manufacture with
out a permit. in the home or else
where beer, ale and porter, contain
ing less than one half of one percent
by volume. Manufacturers OF malt
! extract and similar material endeav-
or to take advantage of the sup
posed conditions Of the law to sell
such extract or material for the man
ufacture by persons in the home OF
beer, ale and porter. ostensibly to
contain less than one half of n
per cent of alcohol by volume but
actually to contain a higher alcohol
ic contents. Such persons seek to
| hide their fraudulent objects by put
ting the receipt for the manufacture
Of liquor containing high alcoholic
contents in the shape of a warning
not to follow a certain course. be
cause such course will produce a
high alcoholic content without OF
course, deceiving anyone as to the
real intent. Such persons are. as a
matter OF fact. mistaken as to the
legal aspects Of the situation. The
law does not actually permit of the
manufacture OF beer, ale and porter,
even though the alcoholic contents
be less than one half OF II per
cent by volume. All materials. such
as malt extract, grape must. stills
! etc, intended for use or for sale Tor
use in tlH, manufacture of liquor in
the home or elsewhere are in viola
ton of the National Prohibition Act
and the same may be seized and
forfeited under Section 25, OF Title
II of the Act.
This notice Is being sem out as a
warming that in the future all such
violations shall be reported for the
U. s. Attorney at Cheyenne FOR
prosecution.-CARL JACKSON.
