RETREATS ON
BREW OPINION
Denies Anti Saloon League
Has Changed Views
on Legality.

BIZ UHifed Pr :
WASHINGTON. May ii. = F.
Scott Mcbride, general superintend-
ent of the Anti-Saloon League, had
not read all of the recent speech Of
Representative Fort rep, N. j.
when he Endorsed it Tuesday before
the senate lobby committee, the dry
leader told the United Press today,
denying the league had changed its
attitude toward home brew and
wines
Mcbride said he did not know
the speech contained the following
phrase when he Endorsed it:
ITO those who want beer and light
wines, suggest that they forego the
wish to buy and be content with
what they make"
Still Considered Illegal
The league still considers manu-
facture of home brew and wines il
legal and undesirable, Mcbride de-
clared, terming other interpretations
Of his remarks erroneous.
Testifying before the lobby COM
mitee Tuesday, Mcbride Endorsed
the prohibition speech made in the
house several months ago by Rep
resentative Fort, close friend of
President Hoover. Fort said "the use
of home made Misunderstanding light
wines and elders is not prohibited
by the Volstead act.
The Anti-Saloon League head re-
iterated his Endorsement of that
statement today, but insisted the
league did not advocate home brew
Never Said Brew Legal
"Fort didn't say he was for home
brew and neither did l." Mcbride
said. 81 never said, and the record
of the hearing shows I did not say,
that home brew is legal. I don't
think it is"
Mcbride asserted that although
Fort said in his speech that the
making of communicating cider and
fruit juices for use in the home was
legal, the New Jersey representative
specifically said it was another ques-
ton" whether this language would
cover home brew.
Mcbride then took exception to
the statement in Forts speech about
being content with what they
make" saying he did not know th&t
phrase was in the speech at the time
he Endorsed it.
