The Truth About Vine-GlO
and Fruit Industries, Ltd

There has been great deal of discussion about
Fruit Industries, Ltd. and it's product Vine-Glo.
The following statement should 60 long way
toward clearing up many misconceptions which
exist in the public mind regarding both Fruit
Industries, Ltd. and it's product Vine-Glo.
Fruit Industries, Ltd. is an organization of
grape growers operating under the California
Grape Control Plan. This group of growers rep
resents the most substantial and longest estab-
ished factors of the industry. Fruit Industries,
Ltd is engaged in the manufacture and sale of
grape products.
Vlne-GlO, the trade name for product of
Fruit Industries, Ltdr is the pure juice of various
varieties of Wine-grapes.
The sale of Vine-GlO is not violation of any
law Section % of the National Prohibition
Act permits its use in your home. Its sale is a
sincere attempt to solve serious agricultural
problem a problem which must be solved under
the restricting conditions of existing laws.
Vine-Glo is not ballyhoo for wine. It is not
an attempt to promote the production or sale
of alcoholic beverages. 1t is not an attempt to
increase the consumption of alcohol in the
home. It would be impossible for us materially
to increase such consumption. If our entire
inventory of grape juice were brought into
homes and allowed to ferment into wine the
total alcohol developed would be approxi-
mately only 100000 gallons. This is only

total of 100000 gallons. From this it is
evident that our aim is not to capture or ex-
tend the present illegitimate alcohol market.
Our plan is to take product that has always
been available on the farm and place it within
the reach of the city dweller Our aim is to

wine-erapes in California.
Vine-Glo is offered in eight varieties: Port,
Virginia Dare, TOkay, MuScateI, CLaret,
RieSLing, Burgundy, and Sduterne. 1t carries
an absolute guarantee of satisfaction or the
purchase price will be refunded.
Its distribution is legal orderly and at all
times under the closest observation and strictest
Its production is under constant scientific
supervision supported by extensive research
and testing
The product has been perfected to high

trade depression, Gates w. Nc
Garrah, American president Of

Breaking the silence he main
tained since his appointment as

beliefs before a distinguished
assembly of bankers, business
men and lawyers. He declared:
Pressing Requirement
"The pressing requirement to
ameliOrate world trade cOndi-
tiOnS is the active expansion of
lOng-term credits and foreign
lending. These, in turn, de-
mand political tranquility and
stability, both national and
international.
1T is upon Paris and New

legation fall, to help them
selves by helping others through
the making of lOng-term invest

He stated that short term in

transferred into the long-term
market, holding this can easily
be done now in view of the fact
that short-term money is easily
available at present.

KLEIN ADVISES

SLUMP OVER
Other Warnings Given to Trade
Leaders to Avoid Cuts in
Wages and Other BIunderS

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Feb. 13
CU.SJ.-The United States is
emerging from the depression,
the upward climb having started,
in the opinion of Assistant Sec
retary Of Commerce julius Klein.
Addressing the Manufacturers
Association here last night, DR..
Klein urged his audience to make
greater use of sustained, far
sighted advertising and not to
cut wages of employees. He said:
Gas we emerge from the de-
preSsiOn-and authoritative teS-
timOny indicates that the up
ward climb is at last under
way-there is a growing realiza-
tiOn that once more, as in
every period of trial, business
has learned several salutary
lessons. 1t has been through
a broadening, though trying.
experience, a gruelling test in
a truly relentless crucible.
What Crisis Shows
"AbOve all else, perhaps, this
crisis has revealed, as none of
its predecessors had, how closely
interviewer the economic fabric
of this nation has become
during these postwar years.
We can now appreciate as
never before the vastly more
sensitive interdependence of
our business activities every
where"
At the same time DR.. Klein
gave a summary analysis of the
depression as follows:
Don't blame the depression
for everything which has
marred the tranquility Of the
economic scene since 1929. Lack
Of vision, archaic methods, an
tiquated policies, within indi-
vidual firms and trades, have
all contributed toward weak
ening those involved so that
when the depression came it
was but the last straw, rather
than the fundamental reason
for current difficulty.
Don't compare peaks with
SlumpS. Both are abnOrman-
ties. The more we flatten out
the peaks, the better will be
our control of the SlumpS.
Against Wage Cuts
"DOn't fall into the fallacy
so general among European in
dustrialiStS of expecting the
wage Garner to bear the brunt
Of the readjustment. Before re-
sorting to that extremity, let
industry be sure that every
other one has been exhausted.
Talk of drastic SIaSheS in Amer
lean living standards and per
manent lows in wages borders
closely on economic lunacy.
Don't cut loose from aSSO-
ciated activities in business.
Such ShOrtSighted economy Is

Don't ignore the amazing

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
THEME ANNOUNCED

Spirit" is the subject of the
lesSon-sermon in all Churches of
Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, Feb. 8.
Among the citations which COM
prise the lesson-sermon is the fol-
lowing from the Bible:
Now the Lord Is that Spirit: and where
the Spirit Of the Lord is. there is liberty.
But we all. With open face beholding as
in glass the glory of the Lord. are
changed into the same image from glory
to glory. even as by the Spirit of The
Lord III Cor. 3:17. 1s).
The leSson-sermon also includes
the following passages fro4n the
Christian Science textbocl. "Sci-
ence and Health With Key to the
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy.
Material man is made up OF involun-
tary and voluntary error. Of a negative
right and a positive wrong. the latter
calling itself right Mans spiritual in
diYiduality is never wrong. 1t is the like
ness OF mans Maker. Matter can not
connect mortals with the true origin and
iacts OF being. in which all must end. It
Is only by acknowledging the supremacy
OF spirit, which annuls the claims Of
matter. that mortals can lay of mortality
and find the indissoluble spiritual link
which establishes man forever in the d.
vine likeness. inSeparable from his creator.
