American Beer Again
p. 20 · Read in the full issue
ABOUT twenty years ago, as the result of taxes charged against inhabitants of the American territories of Guam and Eastern Samoa, the American beer trade there disappeared. The people of Guam procured their beer from Japan, while in Eastern Samoa they stocked up with Australian lagers.
Recently, however, the American Con gress passed certain regulations which again permit Guam and Eastern Samoa
to import and consume American beer.
In other words, American beer can now be sold in Guam and Eastern Samoa as cheaply as that brewed in Japan or Aus tralia.
