Uy the Associated Press
Washington, Feb. 2. The authority
of the government to issue permits for
tho withdrawal of liquor from bonded
warehouses is limited to manufacturers
and wholesale druggists. Attorney Gen
eral Palmer ruled in nn opinion made
public today by Commissioner of In
ternal Revenue Williams.
Issuance of permits for the disposi
tion of liquor by wholesale also is
limited to manufacturers and wholesale
druggists, tlio attorney gcnernl ruled.
Commissioner Williams said that

eliminated the wholesale liquor dealers
from the right to permits, it was not

would be adopted covering liquor in

possible for tho dealers to disposo of
their bonded stocks by the transfer of
tin win chouse certificnt"s to wholesale
dtuygists or nuiuufa"iurers entitled to
penults.

It was explained thn average whole
