Rum Running Greatly Exaggerated, Declares English Dry Leader Hy Keith Jones (t'nited Press Staff Correspondent) ondon, Jan. 19.—(United Press)— "How much liquor is America consuming?” This question put to George B. Wilson, secretary of the United Kingdom Alliance, Britain's largest "dry” organization brought forth a bitter attack today on the statistics of U. S. liquor , consumption published in America by William H. Stayton, national vice president of the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment. Stayton, according to Wilson's information, had put the 1924 drink figure at 260,965.272, 100 percent proof gallons of spirits made up as follows: ■ 1. Stolen from Industrial Alcohol I Allotments 12.00(J,000 gallons. 2. Output of Illicit Distillers 173,- I 965.272 gallons. 3. Smuggled, 75,000,000 gallons. "Examination of these figures,” said Wilson in an exclusive interview with ’ the United Press, "shows that Stayton has made his figures tip out of a tissue J of misrepresented facts. He purports : to base his figures on statistics of the Internal Revenue reports of the U. S. i Treasury. But referring to the first item we find that the government estimate of thefts from industrial alcohol I allotments is not 12,000,000 gallons as I Stayton gives It, but 6,000,000. Stayton I doubled the government's figure with- ']

out a word of explanation. "During the fiscal year 1924 the U. S. spirits of varying •trength. This figure Slayton arbitrarily (daces as representing one weeks' product of illicit dis ttileries, though he migh have placed It at one month's or one day's production, so far as any just basis for calculation is concerned. Ho then multiplied this figure by 52 to arrive at a year's Illicit production giving 86.982,636 gallons. Then still without a word of explanation he muliplles this figure by 2 again to arive at his figure of 173,965,272 gallons. "He puts the amount of smuggled liquor at 75.000,000 gallons. But where would moet of this comt from it not from English and Scotish distillers? Yet the world exports of liquor from British distilleries in 1924 was only 3.469,692 gallons, so that if we should admit that the whole of British liquor exports found their way to the United States which we don't—Stayton’s estimate would still be more than 70,000,000 gallons too high. "As to beer, he is silent, yet in the year ending June 30, 1917, America drank 1,882.770,000 gallons of American beer. Its consumption now. we understand, Is practically negligible, so that If the present consumption of hard liquor was up to Its pre-prohibition quantity—which we are certain it isn't! —Prohibition could clearly be claimed !
