Andrews seeks Congressional permit to manufacture medicinal liquor
General Linclola C. Andrews, assistant secretary of the treasury in charge of prohibition enforcement, urged a December session measure to allow American distilleries to produce medicinal whiskey. He said the plan would authorize 3,000,000 gallons annually, with only 9,000,000 gallons in bonded warehouses remaining, likely causing a medicinal whiskey famine without permission. He noted only two whiskeys would be made for medicinal use and 75 to 80 distilleries could resume production promptly.
