PROHIBITION COMMISSIONER
WILL LIMIT NUMBER PERMITS
Wholesalers viii Be Hit Hardest, but
Retail Druggists viii Come in for
Share of Reduction

Washington Dec. 30.-Plans for re-
ducing the number of federal permits
for handling liquor next year were an
nounced yesterday by Prohibition Com
missioner Kramer, who said the new
issue of licenses would he held to a
strict minimum in an effort TO check
illegal liquor sales.
The greatest reduction will be in
wholesale permits under Mr. Kramer's
program, but other dealers entitled 10
operate under the Volstead act will
also be affected. The commissioner
said he intends to refuse to reissue
"hetween 80 and 75 per cent Of The
wholesale liquor licenses now in eff
feet.
The enforcement staff has been en-
gagged for several months in studying
the records Of the 1900 odd permit
holders to ascertain who have commit
ted overt acts under prohibition stat
utes, with the view of eliminating them
from the list of those who may handle
intoxicants next year
Atlantic seaboard areas apparently
have provided the prohibition enforce
ment agents with their greatest prob
lens, and 1t is expected those districts
will lose the largest number OF liquor
dealers under the plan.
Great Lakes cities and border points.
both Canadian and Mexican. also have
given trouble for the enforcement
corps. according 10 the bureaus rec
ords, and Mr.. Kramer said he planned
70 see that fewer permits would he
granted in those regions hereafter.
The prohibition bureau was said to
he giving some attention also to the
sale Of liquor by retail druggists.
