mits were ordered revoked by Prohibi-
tion Commissioner Haynes, will he al
lowed to continue the manufacture OF
alcohol at it's chief producing plants and
to sell it under certain restrictions by
decision announced tonight by
Revenue Commissioner David II. Blair.
The revocation order issued by Com
missioner Haynes against agencies of
the company, prohibiting further distri-
button of alcohol, still stands. but by the
decision Of Commissioner Blair the COM
pany, by reconstructing the business
practices of its operating agencies, may
apply later for renewal of their selling
permits.
Commissioner Blair decision sustained
the opinion of Commissioner Haynes
that there had been unlawful diversions
of alcohol by the company's agencies at
Philadelphia, Brooklyn and Bridgeport,
and that these agencies and one at
Jersey City had released amounts of
alcohol on forged permits.
Mr.. Blair held, however. that the

F,leischmann agencies had been adopted

of certain former officials of the prohi-
bition unit, not named. out who are said
to have either resigned or to have been

The findings of Mr.. Blair, who de-

Though these extensions aggregate

point that the more densely settled and
therefore more profitable portions of

annual deficits and costing 1t $1,000, 900
