The announcement of the removal ; of the restrictions, which was made j without warning in the House of Commons by the food controller I Tuesday, came as a surprise to the I members, who greeted it with loud | cheers. | The liquor trade was equally sur- I prised, and was besieged by the I well-to-do among the public as soon !as the unexpected news spread. I Many orders of from 50 to 100 s dozens were placed immediately, in ! addition to numerous commissions ! for smaller quantities. I Although it is figured that enough HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH spirits lias been thus freed to supply every man. woman and child In the country with 36 bottles apiece, it is doubtful if the public will find it easy at present to increase consump tion to a great extent. The govern ment maintains control of the maxi mum price, which for whisky is 10 shillings and six pence per bottle, and it is not believed thut the deal ers will sell much below that figure, as the existing high duty will remain. Moreover, restrictions on distilla tion during the war and the neces sity of maturing stocks may lead the dealers to hold large quantities. On the other hand, it will be possible now to sell all the American whisky which has reached and is still reach ing England .though clearauce from the customs may be slow.

SALE OF RUM | BRINGS RICHES Liltle French Colony on the West Indies Is Very Prosperous St. Pierre, Martinique, Nov. 20. The manufacture and sale of rum brought unusual prosperity to the | little island of Martinique during thc j war. Hidden away among the. West \ Indies this little French colony of ! 200,000 people, so small that it is j found with difficulty on most maps of the world, sent its sons overseas : to fight for the motherland while the folks at home prospered by raising sugar, coffee, cocoa and manufac turing rum. This took place, too, during a period when prohib.tlon was sweep ing over America Not only did the exports of this beverage increase from approxi- I mutely 4.090.9U0 gallons in 1913 to 1 5,862,500 gallons in 1917. a gain of more than 40 per cent, but the value of the exports increased front approximately $2,385,000 in 1913 to 189.933,000 in 1917, a gain of about 315 per cent.
