Opponents of the ‘“undercover provision in the House contended that the method of spending the money it would author'ze was contrary to law, but Gen. Andrews has argued that it was a necessary part bf the enforcement efforts. To cut off the appropriation, which compares with $260,000 granted for the purpose last vear, he said, would handicap his or- ganization greatly just when its prog- ress is becorhing most promising. He also has advanced a new argu- ment for enactment of his proposal to permit resumption of whisky man. ufacture on a limited scale under Gov- ernment supervision to replenish van- ishing supplies. It would save money for the Government, he holds— $1,000,000 a vear by centralizing dis- isting supplies in one corporation, and $4,000,000 by permitting the bot- tilng of whisky now stored in wood and rapidly evaporating. Evaporated whisky, he explained, can't be taxed.
