France moves to curb hard liquor amid alcoholism concerns
Premier Mendes-France leads a government drive to reduce alcohol abuse in France. Cabinet approves a 10 am liquor sale ban, hikes hard liquor tax by 20 percent, and plans harsher penalties for public drunkenness. France reportedly has higher per capita alcoholism than Britain and the United States, though sociologists debate the meaning of the figures. Only 15 percent of French alcohol consumed is hard liquor.
