Monday, July 23, 1951 MODERN MOONSHINI Tllegal distillimg dnsthe New York metropolitan area is beginning to rival the worst days of Prohibi- tion, the Tax Council of the Alcoholic Beverage Indus- tries declared this month in reporting two big outlaw operations had been seized by Federal agents on Long Island within five days of each other. Io support its claim, the Tax Council singled out other recent big seizures there and in New York and pointed to raids on new “home cookers,” a type of <mall still which flourished during the bootlegging "20s.

This is true of both of the White House and of the Democratic leaders on Capitol Hill. The President has alternat begged and scolded. He has sel- dom inspired Congress is like a team of ses.
