THE BARROW TIMES, WINDER, GEORGIA. MOONSHINE LIQUOR DEAD LY POISONOUS. If there happen to be any liquor drinkers left in these times of ar idness, here’s a tip for them hand ed out by Internal Revenue Agent I). J. Gantt: - Be sure that your firewater isn’t spiked with denatured alcohol or potash. Mr. Gantt Wednesday was in receipt of a communication from ,1. 11. Callan, acting commissioner of internal revenue in Washing ton, to the effect that completely ( denatured alcohol is being used botlie for bathing and rubbing and for beverage purposes. Mr. Callan pointed out that such alco hol should not be used even for rubbing, since it is injurious fo skin and tissue. As to the use as a beverage, Mr. Callan says: “Where it is so used for any length of time blindness inevitab ly results andtlie continued juse can only result in death.” The opinion prevails in revenue circles that much of the so-called “blind tiger” liquor contains large quantities of denatured al cohol. which, in appearanee, is very much like a good grade of “moonshine” and which, they do say, the unscrupulous can buy cheaply and easily “doctor up” a bit and retail as whiskey at prices which set anew pace for all other profiteers. Mr. Gantt also spoke of reports that some distilleries are said to he using potash in whiskey, quicken ing the fermentation, making pro duction cheaper and compensation accordingly greater. The effect of “potash liquor” is said to be somewhat similar to the effect of “denatured alcohol liquor.” Mr. Gantt didn't anticipate that information would be of particu lar interest to such a bone-dry ter ritory as Georgia. “If, however.” he said, with emphasis on the ‘if’—“there hap pens to be any liquor drinkers left, they may be interested in saving their eyesight and lives by staying off of completely denatur ed alcohol.” —Elberton Star.
