SACRAMENTO. Dec. 21-Liquor
control will be among the liveliest
issues before the 1895 California
legislature.
Passages of the new liquor con-
troll act, known as Proposition NO.
2 on the November ballot, left a
wake of dissatisfaction that very
likely will keep the state in an ex-
perimental era of liquor control for
some time TO come, many legisla-
lures believe.
Proof of this discomfort is seen
in the increasing number of re-
quests for the legislative counsel
bureau to prepare various liquor
bills for introduction when the leg
islature convenes January Z.
While the new liquor plan lib
eralized the law, particularly in re-
lation to the serving of hard liquor
in hotel dining rooms and other
legitimate eating establishments, il
also tightened control by giving
administrative powers to the state
board of equalization.
Now some members of the legiS-
lature want to turn the control
cart around and gallop in the other
direction. Assemblyman-elect Ear
d. Desmond, Sacram0ito, is one
who would like to turn the liquor
signpost the other way.
Favors Divided Control
Desmond believes, and is prepar-
ing bill to such effect, that liq-
uor control administration should
be taken away from the board OF
equalization and given to city and
county authorities.
Under such plan, the legislature

A FORTY YEAR OLD
PROPHECY FULFILLED

In a recent editorial, The
Portland Morning Oregonian
quotes a prediction made by
Justice Brewer of the United
States Supreme Court soon
after that body had declared
the income tex law of 1894 un-
constitutional. The Justice
made commencement address
on the subject, and in giving it
to a young editor for publica-
tion said:
1--WE shall probably have an
income tax. They will amend
the constitution so as to per-
NIT it. None of us are very
long remembered, but if / should
be remembered at all should
like to be remembered for my
position on his question. Let
me indulge in a little prophesy-
ing, which is said to be a dan
gerous business. We shall have
as remarked, an income tax.
1t will turn out to be the great
est incentive to extravaganza
the world has ever seen. The
boys on Capitol Hill will think
that they can put the screws on
a comparatively few without
endangering their popularity,
and they will increase the pres
sure and squeeze until there is
nothing left to squeeze"
Today Congress is working
on a bill designed to make the
income tax yield S270,000,000
more year, at a time when
money is vitally needed by in
dustries which provide the ma
tion's payrolls, jobs, taxes, in
As the Oregonian
comments, Justice Brewers
prophecy "has been more than
fulfilled. Regarding the income
tax as an unfailing source of
new revenue, congress has in
dulged in expenditures on new
adventures in government un-
til even that tax has proved in
and the government
is borrowing billions" The
Oregonian might have added
that exorbitant income tax or
any other kind of tax puts the
screws on all of us and makes 1T
more difficult for every person
to hold of to find a job. 1t dis
courages capital and forces it
into non-productive channels.
