consumers on this question.
Many people tend to equate
lightness with color but light
ness has little to do with color.
Lightness depends on how
whiskey is made and on the
skill and knowledge of the dis
tiller. A light-colored whiskey
may be heavy in body and vice
versa. The ideal is good
tasting, full bodied yet delicate
whiskey.
That the consumer prefers
lightness in his whisky is con-
tinuing evidence of his moder-
alton, we believe.

Moderate Drinking
BY SYLVIA PORTER

A new sales record for dis
titled spirits was set in 1860
more than 234 million gallons.
Stories about drunkenness and
the impact of alcoholism on
the individual, on industry and
on society can be found in
almost every newspaper, In the
following interview. important
facts about the liquor industry
are cited by Edgar M. Bronf-
man, president of Joseph E.
Seagram & Sons. Inc.
@. PORTER: Does the new
peak in liquor sales mean the
individual is drinking more2
A. BRONFMAN: No. The
per capita rate in 1860 was
1873 gallons compared with 1.65
gallons in the previous peak
sales year of 1916. In 1860,
when disposable income-a
a prime factor in liquor sales
was far below today's level, the
per capita rate was 2.86, anc
during prohibition the figure
has been estimated at over 81
gallons, The Nation is much
more moderate than ever be-
fore.
Trend Slightly Upward
Q. PORTER: What is thu
trend in liquor sales?
A. BRONFMAN: The trent
is for gains in total gallon
sold based on population in
creases rather than greater pc
capita drinking Actually, tn
consumer diversifies his liquo
purchases more than he hs
ever done. He will buy variou
products and, while peopl
drink on more occasions, the
drink less on each occasion.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1961-10-02


toward moderation?
A. BRONFMAN: Drinking is
becoming more a part of our
accepted social customs. The
influence of women has had a
lot to do with bringing this
about. Women's per capita con-
sumption is estimated at one
third that of men. The dis
tilling industry has also pro-
NOTED moderation.
@. PORTER: How much are
women a factor in the liquor
industry. Are they brand buy
ers or price buyers?
a. BRONFMAN: There is no
clear-cut answer on how i'm
portant a factor women are in
buying alcoholic beverages, but
that they are a growing factor
is indisputable. Various surveys
have come up with estimates
that women do less than one
