previously was exempt from the Fed
eral excise tax.
A recent circular order of the War
Department, which recalled a A.
year-old prohibition, returns TOO 900
omcers to the beer or light wine OF
S.2 per cent alcoholic content, which
Congress decided In 1888 was non
Intoxicating"
Called Netting New.
War Department oflicials said
yesterday that the law prohibiting
sale OF liquor on Army premises
also applies to officers clubs
throughout the country. The ON
cials said there had been no change
In the War Departments interpre-
tation Of the law which set up the
service area prohibition. They said
the oficers' club ruling was merely
. restatement of a long standing
policy.
Told Of reports that some officers
clubs were interpreting the law to
permit handling of liquor on club
premises on the theory that the
liquor was owned by members and
not being sold, the officers said the
War Department had received no
ofncial reports or complaints on
that score.
Following the order, the men may
have hard liquor only when outside
the reservation on leave. For the
enlisted men, who have never been
able to buy anything stronger than
beer within Army establishments,
the order served to re-emphasize the
prohibition against bringing back
. bottle Of hard liquor from leave.
Signed by Gen. Marshall.
The order was signed by Gen.
George c. Marshall, Chief of Staff.
1t meant that ofhcers, who have
previously enjoyed cocktails and
highballs 1t their officers clubs, had
to sign orders impounding the
liquor supply. Even the use Of 81
per cent alcoholic drink would be
banned in those States where 81
beer is prohibited.
It was explained that the new
bar would apply to civilian hotels
taken over by the Army.

Army commanders that statute
Of 1901 prohibits beer, wine and
