Less Liquor Shortage Possible If War Board Grants Holiday
Ohioans may see reduced liquor supply this autumn and winter unless the War Production Board grants a temporary holiday allowing distilleries to resume beveral alcohol production for a limited period. Liquor director Don Fisher said distillers expect a holiday but fear further cuts if denied. He noted Ohio now produces alcohol only for munitions. If holiday is refused, distillers would cut allotments to monopoly states, including Ohio, compared with past levels. Ohio’s current liquor supply is stated as good or better than 16 other monopoly states.
