CIDER STANDS
TAXED OUT OF
BUSINESS BY
LICENSE ACT
Ordinance Raises Rate From $50 to
$500 Other Lines Raised
Slightly.

Cider stands in Americus disappear
ed today when the new city license or
dinance, passed last night by the new
city council, went into effect. They
passed out of existence because of the
fact that their license fee vas raised
from $50 to $500 per yeara tax fixed
for the purpose of putting them out OF
business. The action was taken fol-
lowing a. great many complaints and
abuses, the police department having
come in contact with a number Of
cases of drunkenness which were re-
ported to them to have resulted from
the drinking Of the so-called sweet
cider sold in Americas.
The new license ordinance as pass
ed is very much the same as that in
effect last year. In fe Winstances
the figures were increased. A few new
items were added But it was ex-
planned that whatever changes were
made were adopted as eauaaizing
measures or to effect specific PURPOSES.
the latter being the case in .ne change
in the cider stand rate. The license
ordinance produced slightly more than
$4,000 in revenue in 1918. 1t is ex-
pected that the newly adopted ordi-
nance, even with the increases here
and there, will not raise more than
$500 additional this year.
