In Public Interest

To Brew Beer

"There is not the slightest evidence that products used to make, beer could be better used in ranking munitions," declared the Food Minis- ter (Lord Woolton) recently in the House of Lords.

"There is also no evidence that excessive drinking is leading to crime and bad health," he added.

It is in the pubile interest to continue producing light beers at the
