Correspondence on the Use of Scarce Commodities for Liquor Production in 1946, 1946-07-12
The letter is a response to Mrs. W.C. Beaty's opposition to the use of grain and sugar in manufacturing liquors and intoxicating drinks. The writer agrees with her opposition and criticizes the government for allowing the use of scarce items for such purposes. The writer also suggests that distillers may have obtained sugar and grain through the black market due to mismanagement by the administration.
