Dry Christmas Promised By Raiders Chief Says Public Lost Faith
Deputy dry administrator George L. Winkler warns Indianapolis will face the dryest Christmas yet as bootleggers struggle to find customers. Despite available liquor, much is low quality sugar or reclaimed industrial alcohol. Bonded whisky often turns out to be corn alcohol with added coloring and flavoring. Prices range from $1 to $2 a pint for liquor and $4 or $5 for bonded products. Increased bootlegging arrests show bolder operations as public education continues to erode demand.
