tations by the government was at
tributed, by The New York Tribune
today, to a successful plot by huge
bootlegging combine by which Ill
quor warehouses which had bulgeo
with imported wines and WHISTLES,

alone" says the newspaper, pre-
vents the government from, official
ly revealing one of the biggest Ii
Quor scandals since prohibition"
Liquors Imported
From August to the end of De-
cember last year $500, 900 worth of
liquors were imported and stored
in government warehouses, mostly
along the Atlantic seaboard and
during the twelve months of 1921
liquor importations, the story says
more than doubled those of 1920.
Since permits to withdraw the Ii
quors we're necessary, no alarm
was felt over the incoming tide OF
whiskey and wine but the bootleg
gers are alleged to have waived the
use of permits and developed the
practice of watering their visible
stock. Il 49,
Hon the LAM Marks
Under the law il anybody wants
to import liquor, store it in ware
house, then change his mind and ex-
port the stuff back whence it came
nobody has violated any section oil
the statutes intended to make the
country alcoholicaliy arid. and il

to water is carried out then the
weaken fluid is what goes back to
wet countries, while the stronger
goes down the throats of Americans
