F1TCHBURG SENTINEL, THURSDAY, JULY 8. 1937 Liquor Tax ise as Spur To lUegal Sales Institute Warns Legislators Not to Seek Funds by Added Levies WASHINGTON, July 8 Distilled Spirits Institute warned legislators against seeking to belance their budgets by increasing the tax on alcoholic beverages Reporting that state end Federal from such beverages totaled $864,927,355 in 1936, the distillers organization issued a statement which said in part "We may expect a further increase in co'isumption of alcoholc beverages for 1937, and perhaps still further reduction in bootlegging, with consequent increases in public revenues from alcoholic beverages "But the bootlegger stands read to recover lost ground whenever disregard his capacity to take advantage of high liquor tax rates and seek to balance their budgets by the simple device of increasing tax on alcoholic, The institute reported that consumption of alcoholic beverage, although higher last year than in 1935, still was substantially less than in 1916, which it called the last comparable pro-prohibition year Asserting the Federal government collected 5612,581,000 from taxes and customs on alcoholic beverages last the institute said this made the industry rank second only to the income tax as a source of Treasur income. The states," continued the institute statement, "were enriched to the extent of $252,345,476 by either taxation and license fees or, in the monopoly group, through profits arising from the operation of state stores New York had the greatest net revenue with $41416,229, it was reported, followed by Pennsylvania with and Ohio with $26,706,927 Of the wet states net of $371,227 was the lowest, the institute added Net revenues by states for 1936 included Connecticut, $3,577,555 Delaware $479,952, District of Columbia, $1,871,688, Maine, $1,531,867 Maryland, $3 546,469, Massachusetts S7 621,363 New Hampshire $1,190,275 New Jersey, $12,117,264, New York $41416,229, Pennsylvania $29,223,470 Rhode Island, $1,587,248, Vermont S706876 Saline Barometer (Philadelphia Bulletin) Steel is the proverbial barometer of the state of manufacture in the United States But the Federal Bureau of Mines now rises to remark tht, with the steady developement of the chemical industry steel has a nval in its prophebc role The nomination of salt for that post will surprise many who think of the mineral solely in its relation to food But it is estimated that the average American uses only six of salt a year as a condiment, and probably not more than another six in preservation of his share of foodstuff, whereas the per capita consumption of salt last a reached 69 pounds Direct and indirect table use of salt vanes little from jear to ear The ups and downs in consumption zre caused principally by fiuctunt- ting demand for chlorine, soda and other important chemicals. Few play so varied a role in our everyday life. That its sale last year reached 8,829,000 tout, 11 per cent more than in 1935, betokens widespread betterment in the chemical industry.
