HONOLULU, T. H„ Oct. IS. — Le
spite the operation of the Flood law,
sake, the Japanese national drink, is
immune. Although figures show that
192 tons of rice are used monthly in
the manufacture of the drink in Hono
lulu, this favorite drink of the Nip
ponese will continue to be made, un
der rulings of the federal food com
mission. the internal revenue offico
and customs office that no special re
i cognition is taken on sake in the fed
eral food law. They base their inter
pretation on the fact that only dis
tilled beverages are considered, where
as according to a supreme court de
cision in Hawaii four years ago, sake
is held to be a brewed and not dis
tilled drink.
Likewise sake may still be import
ed from Japan, despite the edict in
the food law, barring importations of
"distilled” liquors manufactured in
foreign countries.
Unless Washington issues a special
order to the effect the Japanese in
! Hawaii will continue to enjoy their
sake.
But not so with the Chinese, whose
favorite drink, samshu, comes under
the imports ban of the food law. The
Chinese do not take kindly to the
liquor of other nationalities and re
gard samshu, of which there are 24
varieties, as having medicinal proper
ties.
The customs officials of Honolulu
have instructions to seize all foreign
liquors now an route here and it Is
expected that large consignments will
he confiscated on their arrival by the
next big liners from the states.
The food law has also acted to force
one distillery on the island of Hawaii
to close down. This distillery manu
factured rum and gin from waste mo
lasses.

A government inspector who visited
the town reports that the condition ol

business-like management such us ha*

FIRE!
A resident of Cordova had a
small fire in his house the other
day. It was extinguished by the
family at a loss of $150.00. The
next day he insured through ub.
The cost of his insurance for
three years was less than his
loss at this trifling fire. Am
you, Mr. Property Owner, going
to wait until you have had a fire
before protecting yourself from
loss?
