BURDEN OF PROOF
ON DISTRICT ATTORNEY
SAN JUAN, P. R., Sept. 3 (Corres
pondence of Associated Press).—The
final test regarding the sale of alco
holic drinks in Porto Rico will be
as to their intoxicating qualities, and
not as to the percentage of alcohol
contained, according to a decision
just handed down by Judge Hamilton
in the federal court here.
The decision was in the case
brought by the United States district
attorney against the Porto Rico
Brewing Company for the sale of a
quantity of beer admitted to contain
2% per cent alcohol, as authorized
by the legislature following the pro
hibition vote in 1917.
Judge Hamilton ruled that the dis
trict attorney must prove that the
drink is intoxicating. Many tests of
the beer are reported to have been
made by local authorities to ascertain
whether it intoxicates.
