Scarcity of corn leads to distilling ban across realms
May 4 notes scarcity of corn and fear of continued short supply. Imperial authorities ban distilling from corn in all hereditary lands. Reports from Finice and Turin detail troop movements to Hungary, loans secured in Genoa, and a French ambassador audience with the Savoy court. Maritime notices and parliamentary prorogation follow, with city council actions and local incidents recorded.
