USE OF MEDIGINAL WHISKY DECLINES Dr. Doran Sees Hard Times, Cheaper Moonshine or En- forcement as Cause. l Whether due to “bard times, cheap-| er mootizhine or better enforcement of | prohibition,” the fact is that consump- | tion of medicinal whisky still continues to fall off sharply, according to Dr.| James M. Doran, commissioner of in- u al alcohol ures for consumption during the month of January throughout lhl" untry reached Dr. Doran's desk to- Gay. showing there were only 107.768 ilons consumed, ss comyared with) 143,642 gallons in January, 1931, and the still larger figure of l43,255_) in Jan-| uary 3 . s a guess as to what is the cause, Dr. Doran said. ‘“Better enforcement obably has something to do with it, rd times are affecting people's pocket- books and in some sections moonshine, bad as it is, has become cheaper. ‘ Permit Holders Increase. r point is that con- fall off despite mber of physi- ¢ there was an | of 14 per cent | proximal | e sumption, com- in miedicin red witl sician also is less hd !)‘\an it used to | an pointed ou | b e anx:v‘ fhe. price of _medicinal Hiquor depression, Dr. Doran | sald, “Even sick people nowadays can- not indulge themselves in high-priced medicines if there is a way to avoid it. | “Bootleg liquor is procurable at & much lower price than medicinal spirits on & physician’s prescription. — Me- dicinal whisky people inform us they are being injured considerably in the | coastal and border cities.” Whisky Price Higher. | Medicinal whisky has gone up in | price, Dr. Doran explained, “by reason of the increasad carrying cost that fel- Jows from year to year. The whisky now being used was all made prior to prohibition, and, as it_steadily evap- orates each year, and the interest and carrying charges continue to pile up, it | tends to force the price up.” | Dr. Doran explained the first new‘ | the Jegal medicinal whisky since the Vol- stead act was made in the Fall of 1929. “That whisky.” he said, “will be ready | for bottling in bond in the Fall of 1932, We have permitted the manufacture of two crops of whisky. The first was in the Fall of 1929; then we waited 18 months and permitted another erop to be manufactured, last Spring and Fall. I imagine it will be another full year at least before it is necessary to make snother crop.” Dr. Doran estimated there was now about 5,000,000 gallons of this new whisky. The old supply he estimated at & little more than 10,000,000 gallons, making a total on hand at present of around 15,000,000 gallons. The decline in consumption of legal whisky is shown during.the past few ears as follows: 1926, 1,761,000 gal- ns; 1927, 1,646,000; 1929, 1,534,000; 1930, 1,201,000. _ PRINCIPAL IS HONORED Association Gives ‘“Reception for Miss Mortimer.
