BOOTLEGGERS
, FIND TAXES :.
FOR 1921 HIGH

Many bootleggers' complacent smiles
are turning to howls Of despair when
the tax collector presents his bill.
The majority Of bootleggers havebeen
doing such a profitable business that
they can even smile when fined in a
federal court and charge it to "over
head expense" But the tax collector
bill is a different matter.
If a ~bootlegger has been unfortunate
enough to have sold whisky in July
his tax bill for 1921 will be $3,062.50,
no matter how small the quantity.
This fact seems to be unknown to the
general public but it is not overlooked
by the revenue authorities. A man
who sells a drink of whisky is a retail
liquor dealer in the eyes of the law and
is taxed as such, plus added penalties
provided for by the national prohibi-
ton act.
The taxes are graded with regard to
the month in which the whisky is sold.
The internal fiscal year begins in July.
Ifabootlegger sells whisky inJanuary
he is assessed on the basis of six
months as a retail dealer or approx
imately half of the tax imposed on
him if he is apprehended in July.
The list of taxes and penalties which
are levied on every bootlegger who
sells liquor in July is as follows:
Federal tax of the national prohibition
acI Pou
Twenty-Five per cent penalty for
evasion SlZ.oO
Bone dry state tax of $1,000 doubled
by the provision of the national pro-
hibition act $4,000
twenty-five pere cent penalty for
Total Tax .............. $3,O6Z.5O
