Milwaukee Four and seven
eighths gallons of beer every thirty
days will be the maximum amount a
doctor will be able to prescribe to an
individual under regulations drawn up
by the internal revenue department
according to word here today from
Washington. AS there are % pints, or
three gallons, in the standard case of
beer, this means, federal officials said
that the\ amount which can be pre-
scribed will be just under one and
two-third cases. Physicians are not
required to prescribe the maximum
amount, the dispatch said, the pre-
scription being limited to the amount
which they honestly believe necessary
in each instance. They will be held
to "strict accountability" if they pre-
scribe more than is necessary.
