HEAVY TAX ON

WHISKEY SHIPMENT

WILL WILSON SET ASIDE PROHIBITION?

Uncle Sam Gets Nice Piece of Change From Defunct Distilling Company. Tai.es amounting; to $14, 01. 40 were paid on a. singlS consignment of whisky shipped this morning by the Hammond Distilling; Co. Since the recent revenue act became effective which raised the tax to $6.40 a gallon tax stamps valued at hundreds of thousands of dollars hae been shipped to the office of Deputy Collector Daniel Voreis to care for the disposal of stocks held by the distilling: company. The warerooms of the old distillery still contain about r.jPO fcarrels of whisky which will net Uncle. Sam over a million and a. quarter dollars !f sold before July 1. No provision has bco made as yet for disposal of stocks remaining on hand atter national prohibition becomes effective. A recent communication from England stated that the English market would be thrown open to the surplus American spirits but the United Slates government will realize little in the way of taxes on suoh sales as the tax for foreign shipments is only ten cents rer barrel. Regarding the tax on ice cream and soda fountain products whicfi went into effect May 1. Mr. Voreis says that drivers of wagons which sell Ice cream on the streets seem to think they do not hif to pay the tax. This Is an error as the law requires in all cases that the vendor should collect the tax from the customer.
