The report from the commissioner of internal revenue shows a fiscal year ending June 29, 1914, with over four million dollars less from spirituous liquor. Kentucky lawmakers agree to cut production by 60 percent this year, with distillers in other states likely to follow as private warehouses show excess supply.
