Blind Tiger to Doomed Again
Washington July 10. The national pharmacopeia committee has ruled that whiskey and brandy will not be listed as drugs in the new United States Pharmacopeia edition. After January 1, 1916 druggists cannot sell brandy or whisky as medicine and must obtain a saloon license if they continue to sell liquor, facing higher local taxes and stricter regulations. The move hits the liquor trade, especially in dry areas.
