The increase of 187,000 gal- | lons. was held to be «due - -large to the | heightened demand for specially dena- tured alcohol for industrial = purposes now that pure grain alcohol has been put | virtually out of reach by restrictions of the national prohibition act. Over 4 per cent. of all the specially denatured alcohol used in the United | States last year was consumed in Con- necticut, according to incomplete figures | for the country availabje at this time. Most of that used in this state went into the manufacture of hair tonics and per- fumes, while the consumption of the product in the manufacture of hats de-, clined sharply with the big drop in the use and production of felt hats. None of the Connecticut’ confectionery manufacturers have yet reported the use of specially denatured alcohol in the ipreparation of glazes for lozenges and | confections, although a special formula recently authorlzed by the revenue .bu reau allowed for such use. Over forty formulas of specialiy denatured aleonos jhave been authorized for use in the man- |ufacture of over 350 articles, in addition | to class authorizations, and = several of {these formulas have been used in Con- necticut, it is shown by the monthly_re- U ports filed at the reveniue office. Special- Iy denatured alcohol s not poisonous,-but when standing by itself, is disgusting. to the taste. There was a falling off in the quanti- ty of denatured alcohol used during -the {latter part of 1918 which was accounted {for by the fact that, in the early part lof the year several of the larger muni- {tions plants discontinued. the manufac- ture of explosives for the allies in which | j denatured alcohol had been used,. and | jengaged in the manufacture of explosives | {for the United States government, using principally tax-free undenatured alcohol ‘ The army specifications were subse- ! | quently changed and denatured - alcohol s used exclusively in those . plants. | | The quantity of denatured alcohl used during that year i nthe manufacture of { explosives and for other war purposes— | and largely in Connecticut—was appr dropped from | t of 55,679,597 wine gallons | in 1917 to 15,307,000 = wine gallons ‘in | 1920, but the consumption then began to increase on account of the forced substi- { tution of this type of alcohol for the pure | Brain alcohol restricted by the national } prohibition act. Nearly 8,000 gailons of specially de- | natured alcohol used during the past year by Connceticut manufacturers were | recovered after use in the factories and | shipped to redenaturing plants. This was ! an increase of several thousand galions | 50 recovered during the previous .vear. Manutacturers of Connecticut themselves ecovered and restored 384943 gallons {of special denatured alcohol. ers of the product, in fact, all man- | ufacturers and jindividuals possessing it, are required to make monthly reports to | the revenue office. | The increase consumption of industrial | ed alcohol in the high poi the country ,847 117% proof gallons out of ! 90,644,722 ‘proof galions, or | 50,163,016 winé gallons, produced in 1918 lin the United States. Following the | | war, the production of specially denatur- | | alcohol in Connecticut is Connecticut is | | considered important by chemists and | | government revenue experts, because is felt that, if the United States builds up a large industrial alcohol production and fosters its growth and development, the industries will benent and it will in- it { crease the nation’s strength as a world | power. is largety because of the | products’ bearing on . several lines of manufacturing.
