U. ♦ Has Prohibition Increased Taxes? “Back in 1914, the federal income from liquor taxes totaled 245 mil lion dollars. A huge sum. Indeed, to cut off lightly! State and local gov ernments received another 80 mil lion dollars yearly from the liquor trade. Was adequate thought given to this phase of prohibition before the 18th amendment was adopted? How has prohibition affected gov ernment income and taxes? What has been the effect on the individual tax payer? Let’s get down to funda mentals in answering these ques tions. Who paid those huge liquor taxes In the days before prohibition? True, the liquor interests wrote the checks. But who gave the money that made those checks good?— There can be only one answer. In the final analysis the individual drinker paid every penny of the liquor taxes. It is always that way with indirect taxation. Producer and distributor each gets a price that takes care of the taxes without cut ting into profits. Nothing wrong about that. It is just good business. Now consider this: The cost of run ning our government is nearly four times' as great today as it was in 1914. There are three very good reasons for that. First, we have been through the greatest war of all time and are still paying the bill. Second: our population is 25 per cent larger than in 1914. Third: a dollar buys less in both wages and commodities, so that it takes more dollars to ac complish the same result. Yet we hear no talk of Federal Insolvency. Our financial condition, in fact, has grown steadily better. We have be come the richest nation in the world. Where is the tax money coming from? Ultimately it is coming, as al H ways, from the individual taxpayer, but he is paying It In different ways. He pays more In direct taxes, lie pays taxes on his motor car, theatre tickets and other things. But what about prohibition enforcement? Who pays for that? The answer is simple. Enforce ment pays for itself. Here are figures for the first nine years of prohibi tion—as supplied by Dr. J. M. Doran United States Commissioner of Pro hibition: Toal cost of enforcement, $213,179.485; total collections from fines aud penalties and revenue from taxes on lawful spirits and ferment ed revenue from taxes on lawful spirits and f-rmented liquors,$460,- 502,792.76. Net balance, $247,323,- 307.76—a tidy sum indeed. It would be too bad for America if she were forced to condone and encourage vice because of the tax money they would bring.

"After the war," O'Brien says, "the British naval experts checked their records of submarine sinkings with (he German figures, and many interesting facts developed. The Ger man lost 203 of their U-boats, in cluding seven interned in various neutral ports, and 14 that were blown up by their officers when the Flanders submarine bases were evacuated. "Of the other 182, 59 were sunk by gunfire from Allied «Warships. Allied mine-fields accounted for 43 of the German subs, and 18 more were sunk by being rammed by Al lied ships. The Allies' own submar ines accounted officially for 17 mors and the 'mystery ships,’ or ‘Q-ships,’ are known to have destroyed 11 U- boats. Allied aircraft sank 6 more by aerial bombing, but 28 others are still unaccounted for, and neith er the German nor the Allied rec ords contain any clue to their fate.” Room & Bath $1.55 NOW AVAILABLE AT THE W ashington Hotel Portland, Oregon.
