ONLY NON -|NTOX|CANTS
MAY Be BREWED HOME
Heads OF Families Permitted to
Make 200 Gallons of
Fruit Juices.

Washington. Sept. 2o.-To end all
confusion as to what kind of liquor
could be brewed at home. the Internal
Revenue Bureau issued statement
yesterday. 1t was inspired largely by
the reports that the law permitted the
manufacture in any home of 200 gal
hons of wine a year. The bureaus
statement reads:
"Non- Intoxicating fruit juice can
be made In the home. Intoxicating
wine, home brew and distilled spirits
may not be made. Two hundred gallons
OF Notwithstanding fruit juice may be
manufactured tax free by the head of
\ family by registering with the Col
iector of Internal Revenue. This tax
exemption provision has been the
source of confusion. The effect of this
Is not to allow the manufacture of
200 gallons of intoxicating wine free
from the restrictions of the National
Prohibition act, but merely to allow
the manufacture OF 200 gallons of non
Intoxicating fruit juices free of tax.
Under the revenue act of 1918 fruit
Juices. other than apple cider, con-
tanning one-half of per cent. or more
pf alcohol by volume are taxed as
wine. The same act exempts from tax
eco gallons of wine per annum, manu-
factured by the head of family, pro-
vided he segisters with the Collector
Of Internal Revenue for the district
In the manner indicated by Treasury
decision 2765, but no exemption from
tax is allowed unless the producer is
so registered with the Collector of In
tornal Revenue. and a permit is not
issued by this office or any officer of
the Government for the purpose, none
being required.
1T is apparently this taX-exempting
provision which has been the principal
source of the confusion which has
arisen. Ii has seemingly been sup
posed that the effect of the provision
Is 10 allow the production of 200 gal
ions of intoxicating wine for use in
the home, free from the restrictions
imposed by the National Prohibition
act. The provision has no such effect
IL relates to taxation solely. and does
not affect the restrictions imposed by
the National Prohibition act.
Under the provisions of the latter
act the 200 gallons of fruit juice which
may be produced without payment OF
tax must, like any further quantity
produced for home use without a per.
nit be Notwithstanding. There is nc
legislative provision anywhere fol
manufacturing either Intoxicating
wine, cereal beverages. so-called home
brew. or distilled spirits in the home
or elsewhere for beverage purposes"
