Woodcock, director -of prohibition. Considered from the basis of pure alcohol, this was but 35 per cent of the 1914 production. ‘The director estimates the total production of liquors for the year ended June 30, 1930, as 876,320,718 gallons, compared with 2,256,272,765 gallons in 1914. ‘The studies by which the estimates were arrived at were made by E. A. Grant and E. P. Sanford, of the di- vision of research and public inf mation. The statement starts with a re- capitulation of the possible sources of illegal liquor production, which, for tne aout cane or beet gat ora Corn sugar, cane or 5 meal or other grains and molasses; for the making of wine, wine grapes, table grapes, raisins, fresh fruits and - berries; and ays Gsemed of home ‘brew, hops and 5 To these sources should be added diverted industrial alcohol renatured and smuggled liquor. ‘Whether the toal amount of possi- ble production is the same as the ‘amount consumed, no one can tell.
