Having regard totheproposal from theCommission ,
Whereas experience has shown that theway inwhich certain quality white wines
psrareproduced issuch that thealcohol content oftheir by-products isbe­
lowaverage ;whereas application ofthenormal rate totheproducers ofthese
wines would oblige them ,unfairly ,todistil relatively large quantities of
wines ;whereas itistherefore desirable tomake provision forapplying a
lower rate tothese producers ;
