MILWAUKEE ‘GOES WILD’ AS OLD BREWS THAT MADE IT FAMOUS FLOW AGAIN Celebration Is Greatest Since Armistice; Downtown Streets Are Jammed in Frenzied Beer Welcome. Hu I nitrd /Ve* MILWAUKEE, Wis., April 7.—The old beer that made Milwaukee famous flowed again today in a celebration pronounced the greatest since signing of the Armistice. Breweries of Juneau avenue were stormed by thousands of shouting, hilarious persons. At the Miller brewery, where beer was passed out free, thirsty celebrators seized empty tomato cans, discarded bottles or whatever other containers they could find, and rushed up to the flowing spigots.
Wisconsin avenue, Milwaukee’s wide thoroughfare, was jammed. •The throngs extended up to the brewery area, where the noise and excitement reached a frenzied pitch. The shifting, shouting crowds delayed beer trucks as they started for cases and taverns. Crowds Storm Storehouse Policemen on motorcycles and in squad cars, with sirens screaming, cleared a path for the trucks piled to the peak with cases and kegs. At a tavern a few blocks from the Pabst Brewery, beer was flowing at 12:09. A few minutes later it was available at nearly all downtown cases. At one brewery a man rushed from the bottling room carrying a full case. He stopped on a loading platform, and tossed the bottles to the crowd. Pandemonium prevailed for a moment as spectators scrambled madly for the bottles. At another brewery, a block away, crowds stormed the storehouse and seized a half-dozen cases. Police squads had difficulty in restoring any semblance of order. Bigger Than Expected At the Pabst brewery, German throngs gathered, carrying currency in their hands. They battled their way up to the storerooms, shouldered cases of beer and hurried homeward. On Wisconsin avenue, celebrators stood on tops of automobiles singing “Sweet Adeline’’ and other songs familiar in beer drinking ing circles. The Milwaukee celebration, which had been discouraged by city officials, surpassed expectations even of brewers themselves. City authorities had urged citizens to wait, until after Lent to celebrate, but virtually the entire downtown section was carried away by the spontaneity of the event. ’LEGGERS MAY EVADE BEER BAN IN TEXAS Prepare to Transport Beverage by Plane From AVet States. By L'nitrd Pro* FORT WORTH, Tex., April 7. Bootleggers plan to have beer in Texas if the state legislature fails to legalize the beverage. Liquor dealers who heretofore have specialized in rum and whisky running across the Mexican border, will bid for the summer trade with light wines and beer transported by plane from the nearest “wet” state, perhaps Oklahoma. If the state ban on beer is not lifted, prices probably will average 20 cents a glass, dealers say. The government's radio talks on common household problems, prepared in the bureau of home economics, are broadcast in Hawaii in both English and Japanese.
