National Grange Says Beer Return Not Desired
The National Grange argues dairy demand since national prohibition far exceeds prior grain use by the brewing industry. Per capita dairy consumption rose from 154.8 pounds in 1917 to 997.5 pounds in 1929, with grain and roughage needs for dairy production totaling over 10 billion and 25 billion pounds respectively. The Grange warns against revisiting beer legalization while the eighteenth amendment stands, noting Germany and England show beer is not a universal fix for societal problems.
