u. 8. Embarrassed
The embarrassment of the De-
partment of Justice is really acute,
not only because of Mrs. Willie
brandt's decision and her present
status, but also because another
branch Of the Federal Govern
ment has financed and en-
couraged the grape products
business.
The Federal Farm Board has
extended to the California grape
growers credit to the extent Of
more than $16.O0O,O00. Presum-
ably, the board would not have
risked its money unless it was
satisfied Of the legal safety and
permanence Of the business.
$16,OOO.OOO Periled

partment Of Justice officials is:
What is to happen to the Farm
Boards $4,000. 900 credit if the
prohibition authorities decide that
wine-making is Illegal and proceed
with steps to halt the national
sale and distribution Of the con-
centrates?
The question goes unanswered
at the department, even though
many officials privately consider
that sale Of the concentrates is
violative Of the spirit and intent
of the Volstead act, If not its
letter.
