U, S. THIRST HELPS BRITAIN FIGHT WAR

LONDON, Nov. 14 (U. P.).—British tipplers faced the fearful prospect of “going on the wagon” today —not by inclination, but because of the United States’ thirst for Scotch and other British whiskies. ; in favor of the government’s sending virtually Britain's | entire output. of liquor to the United} Btates in ekchange for dollars with| which to buy war materials, but only so long as their favorite pubs did not run dry. i na Now they can’t conceal their hope that “maybe if Americans wouldn't So much, there would be a little more left for us” The government feels otherwise. The more that America drinks, the better they like it. Meantime, ‘the government is: investigating charges that racketeers have obtained such a hold on’ the liquor trade here that they will have a monopoly next -year unless the Government takes control.
