a storm death toll of at least fifty
nine in thirty-six hours.
Since Thursday night tornadoes

states.
Flood menace was added today to
the other hazards as the Mississippi
river approached the danger state
at Memphis.
The combined efforts of Ohio
river floods and a 26 inch rain in
western Tennessee sent the river to
a stage of thirty three feet Friday
night and the Memphis weather bu-

The wave of tornadoes started
Thursday when a twister, after do
ing slight damage in southern Mis-
souri,, caused death in Arkansas. A
few hours later another tornado
swept southeastern Texas and
western Louisiana. causing twenty
three deaths in Texas and six in

Friday eastern Louisiana and Mis-

with three more deaths in Louisiana
and twenty-seven in Mississippi.

injured, many critically, and hun

Deaths came for the most part

IN MEDICINAL
WHISKY TRADE
Long-E Established Firms to
Handle Prescription
Liquor Here.
BEER RUSH CONTINUES
Faithful Democrats Stage
Stampede for Valuable
State PIumS.
BY DANIEL w. KIDNEY
Times staff Writer

Medicinal whisky is to be handled
through legitimate trade channels
in Indiana, permits made public to-
day by the state administration dis
closed.
Unlike the political permits
through which beer is to be con-
trolled, the whisky licenses go to
long established wholesale and re-
tail drug firms.
The state law provides that drug
store must be in business three
years before securing a whisky per-
nit. The entire whisky business also
is under federal governmental regu-
lations.
Licenses Are Distributed
Licenses we're in the hands of
both wholesalers and retailers today
and Paul Fry, state excise director,
said that they will be able to sell
on doctors prescription as soon as
purchases are reported to his office
and the 25-cent tax stamps pro-
cured. One stamp must be placed
on each pint sold at retail.
This tax is in addition to the
license levies for distillers, whole
salers, and retailers of whisky.
The whisky permits have renewed
interest for persons who were dis
couraged by the one-point limit,
since that now has been lifted by
the federal government and no
regulation as to quantity to be
prescribed" has been laid down by
the state.
Given Wholesale Permits
Wholesale permits issued include:
McKosson- Fuller Morrison, Chi
cago.
South Bend Wholesale Drug Com
pany, South Bend.
Glenmore Distilleries Company,
Inc, OWensboro, KY.
W. L. Weller & Sons, Inc, Louis
vile, KY.
Bernheim Distilling Company of
Louisville, KY.
Kiefer-S Stewart Company, Indian
apolis.
Mooney Mueller Ward Company,
Indianapolis.
Fit. Wayne Drug Company, FIT.
Wayne.
Retailers likely will include most
neighborhood drugstores.
Licenses have been issued to both
the Hook and Haag chains and such
prominent downtown stores as Sokes'
and Bernard M. Keene.
Beer Business Booms
Meanwhile, the beer business con-
tinues to boom among the Demo-
cratic politicians.
Two more of the valuable monop-
olistic importers permits were made
public.
One went as predicted, to the
newly organized Midwest Beverage
Company, Inc, Lafayette. This is
called the state committee cut-in."
Incorporators of the firm are Hugh
and Esther Williams. brother and
sister-in-law of Marshall Williams,
secretary of the Democratic state
committe, and DR.. j. William
Wright, Indianapolis.
The latter is an ear, eye, nose, and
throat specialist and a personal
friend of Chairman r. Earl Peters,
Democratic state chairman. They
have been companions on various
holiday excursions.
Control Thirteen Counties
None of the incorporators live in
Lafayette, but they will be able to
dictate all foreign beers consumed
there and in the thirteen surround
ing counties.
K. v. B. Company, Terre Haute,
obtained the importer permit in
that district, Fry announced. The

In fact, the commission had
