FEDERAL-STATE LIQUOR TAX

DRESIDENT ROOSEVELT, by requesting
the congressional committees to keen the
liquor tax low enough to enable Legal LIQUOR
TO compete successfully with bootleg has put
the issue on a sensible basis Elimination of
bootlegging and kindred rackets should be the
first consideration and federal revenue the
second: The country is fortunate in having
arrived at a fairly general agreement on this
policy.
But it is easier to lay down a broad policy
than to apply it. Already the administration
experts and congressional experts are dis
agreeing over the precise figure. While some
Of the former still insist that gallonage tax
of $3.50 on spirits would achieve the policy
purpose, most of the latter urge figures rang
ing from 1920 downward
One of the best methods suggested is that
of Chairman Doughton of the house commit
tee. He would seek agreement first on a fair
retail price, based on a moderate profit to pro-
ducer, wholesaler and retailer. Then, by work.
ing backward, he would ascertain the amount
of tax which legal liquor could carry and still
compete with bootleg.
This aspect of the problem can be solved
whether by the Doughton method or some
other-more quickly than the related problem
of duplicating federal and state taxes That
conflict is notorious in several fields of tax
alton, but is especially bad here because it
leads back again directly to the bootleg diff
fculty.
The original plan of the Roosevelt experts
had the great merit of a blanket tax all COL
lected by the federal government, but part
apportioned by it to the states.
without some such cooperation between
the federal and state governments there is no
way in which the federal tax can be fixed with
an eye to killing off the bootlegger. For in
stance the state tax in New York is So and in
Colorado is 80 cents a gallon, while in New
Mexico it is based on excess profits and in
Connecticut on gross income. So any given
federal tax rate, when added to widely vary
ing state levies would result in excessive
total tax in some states and at the same time
an unnecessarily low burden in other states.
Though the general problem of tax dupli-
cation does not lend itself to quick solution,
public opinion is aroused sufficiently on this
particular liquor tax question that the states
might be ready at once to meet the federal
government half way. The federal govern
ment now allows as a credit on its federal
estate tax up to 80 per cent of the amount
collected from the estate by the state. This
might suggest a liquor tax compromise if the
states refuse better plan.
In any event the President and congress
should not rest until every effort is made to
obtain close federal and state cooperation.
Without this the federal tax will fail in its
avowed purpose of helping legal liquor to drive
out bootleg stuff.

GOVERNOR MURRAY ACTS

GOVERNOR MURRAY of Oklahoma acted
- promptly and resolutely as a gang of
Vould-be lynchers invaded his state from
Kansas to hunt down farm hand accused of
kidnapping and murder. He ordered out three
companies of national guardsmen to patrol
the highways and protect the sheriff and pris-
oner. His orders were: Shoot to kill" Gov
ernor Landon of Kansas followed Governor
Murray's action with a promise to use his
guard if necessary.
Governor Murray has summoned the guard
to enforce oil proration, protect a state free
toll bridge, count football tickets for taxation
purposes, and to do other chores Whatever
criticism the quick drawing of his shootin'
iron may have earned in the past few will find
fault with this latest mobilization of force in
behalf of law.
The rough and ready Oklahoman knows
what CalifornIs more polished Governor
Rolph and others have not Yet learned. that
law can not exist along with mob rule. If
Sheritts fail to protect their prisoners, then
governors must intervene If governors fail
then the federal government should step in.

JOHN BULL IN QUANDARY

ENGLAND's centuries-old Irish question"
~ bids fair to come to a final crisis in the
immediate future.
President canon de Valera of the Irish
Free State asserts fatty that the people of
Ireland will be satisfied with nothing less than
complete independence. He is prepared to sub
NIT this position to plebiscite of the people;
further, ne declares that Ireland would not
remain in the British commonwealth for
twenty-four hours if the threat of force were
withdrawn.
This presents the British government with
problem that will take a good deal of solv-
ing. 1t is doubtful if genuinely coercive meas
ures will be taken and it begins to look
equally doubtful if anything less than coercion
would have any effect. What is John Bull
going to do?
The irony of the case is the fact that the
Free State status which England gave Ireland
dozen years ago well might have settled the
whole matter permanently if it had been
granted a generation earlier
Great Britain made its concession too late.
Whether anything short of complete indie
pendence ever will satisfy the Irish people now
is exceedingly doubtful
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1933-12-14

the American Medical Association goes on
record as being wholly behind the principles
represented by this legislation.
The American people have right to the
greatest protection that the law can afford in
relationship to their health. The use Of food
drugs. and cosmetics is bound intimately with
the health Of the people.
The evidence that the food and drugs act
Of 1906 failed largely Of its purpose because
of gross abuses that developed in advertising
is so glazing that it is common knowledge to
the man in the street. The time has come for
extension of this legislation to bring about
better control
The leading associations in all industries
concerned recognize this necessity. Those
manufacturers who exploit human frailty for
personal gain apparently are girding them
selves TO battle, for they know that such legis-
lation as is proposed means the death of their
rackets"
So says the Medical Associations Journal
This newspaper, which has printed many
health articles by DR.. Morris Fishbein the
journals editor presents this so that the public
can understand the attitude of medical au-
thoritieS toward the proposed legislation.

FORGOTTEN LESSON

XTHEN the Bourbons returned to power
w in France after the downfall of Ma
poleon Bonaparte, it speedily was discovered
that they had in the famous phrase, learned
nothing and forgotten nothing" One of the
results was that their restoration didn't last.
One is reminded of this by some of the
antics which certain liquor concerns have
INDUCED in since the eighteenth amendment
was repealed
For one thing retail prices charged for
hard liquors have been little less than fan
tastic. The principle of collecting what the
traffic will bear seems to have been followed
over and over again.
nation which can remember when
quart Of good whisky could be bought for
$3.50 now is discovering that it must pay as
high as SIS for the same article.
For another thing, the liquor interests
seem to be ready TO plunge back into politics
just as they did before prohibition
A fair sample is the experience Ohio has
been having.
Ohio's legislature was called into special
session to consider liquor control laws The
Governor submitted a plan permitting sales
of wine and hard liquor by the glass In
