PARIS--A campaign against brandy and rum for breakfast has been launched by French health minister Prince Michel Pontiatowski. He wants the national assembly to help by insisting on a general opening time for bars of 10:00 AM. This would stop the habit of a snifter on the way to work. "Nothing could be worse than taking that little glass on an empty stomach," he says.
