BIG TAX MONEY BY
BREWING INDUSTRY
Officials Say Companies
In State Paid Out So
100000 In 1899

The importance of the brewing
industry to Maryland we revealed
this week when tax officials an
nOunced that companies operat-
ing in Maryland had paid into
local, state and federal treasures
nearly 100000. in 1899
These taxes were exclusive of
those paid on property owned by
the brewing concerns, trucks used
in deliveries, automobiles driven
by statesmen and collectors and on
numerous other articles.
At the same time the Brewers
Institute of Maryland, Inc. an
nounced that the combined pay
roll of the industry in Maryland
now totals almost $4,000. weekly
and that hundreds of workers are
employed at the eight major plants
in Maryland.
Coal and fuel oil purchased for
use in generating power and cook
ing mash in the various plants
reached a new high this year as
did the sum expended for paper,
paints. lumber and other material
used for advertising purposes.
Incidentally, it was revealed
that Baltimore ranks sixth in the
United States as a beer-drinking
city and that $3.50 of the families
in Baltimore buy beer for home
consumption.

IRA B. Whitman, Chairman OF
the State Roads Commission, has
just gone through hair-raising
episode for man who is all
engineer and no part of politician.
You may recall reading last week
about a scheme which the State
RJads Commission thought up for
improving Mayland's roads-a pro-
ject everyone agrees would be
splendid if the money could be
found. When Mr.. FThitman an
nOunced that he contemplated
raising the revenue with an extra
cent of gasoline tax, the citizenry
raised a howl that raised the roof
of the Government House right
down over Governor O'Conor's
ears. The Governor promptly
made a statement in which he
earnestly declared he was inter
ested in lowering taxes, not rails
ing them.
The general reaction to this lit
tie episode among persons who
follow politics indicates that
people believs the Governor let
Mr.. Whitman send his statement
ND as a trail balloon; for in the
O'COnor regime no department
head is permitted to, make any
announcement without the Cover
nOr'S approval. The general i'm
preston among Democratic poll
ticos is that when Mr. O'COnOr
heard the protests rolling in he
eased out and left Mr.. Whitman
holding the bag.
However. that is not exactly
correct The Rowing Reporter
checked. and here is the true story:
A reporter whose name we
promised not to use, broke the
story through a misunderstanding
He had been trying for two days
to get an appointment with Mr.
Whitman to confirm the rumor OF
the new roads plan that was max
ing the rounds. Finally he was
shown in to see the Roads Com
missioner. and asked for details
Innocently enough, Mr.. Whitman
leaned back in his chair and got
the whole business off his chest
going into detail about the plan
he had in the back of his head
Tor raising the money. Mn. Whit
man admitted the plan had been
discussed with the Governor, and
all the while he had an idea he
was talking "off the record"
But Mr.. Whitman did not say
he was talking loft the record,
for the reporter would have beer
glad to keep the confidence If ne
had been asked to. The reporter
thanked Mr.. Whitman and walked
out thinking he had a good story
under his belt, as he had indeed
for the Baltimore papers head
lined it.
When Governor O'COnOr reaC
the story he was furious. Mr.
Whitman who thought he was
talking in confidence, was floored
And now the reporter feels very
badly too, needless to say.
Poor Mr.. Whitman received from
the Governor, a scorching letter
which will make the rounds to al
department heads and it is SAFE
to say that Mr.. O'Conor will DC

tossed out to the cruel world
Though Edward J. Colgan, COM
paign manager for Senator Rad
cliffe, doesn't know it. there is
talk of replacing him with a new
manager. For although there is
plenty of sentiment for Senator
Radcliffe, Mr.. COlgan has not been
able to build up any kind of an
organization for the Senator. and
it is being said he hasn't got the
punch it takes to get the b'hOyS
organized. In Western Maryland
for example, all the b'hoys are al
ready signed up with Mr. Bruce,
and even though NJ. COlgan spent
several days in Western Maryland,
he returned without getting up
any kind of an organization. How
ever. this should not be held
against Mr.. Colgan; all the or
ganization there in Western Mary
land already had been sewn up by
Bruce. However, Mr.. Colgan did
round up some support for Mr..
Radcliffe, mostly among men and
women who have not had eX-
perience in campaign work.
There is a good deal of speculat-
ion as to whom Mr. Bruce was re-
ferring to when he remarked that
if elected he would take care of
the close friends who helped to
put him in the Senate. There is
some doubt, however, if he was
referring to Senator Radcliffe or
Governor O'ConOr.
Senator Radcliffe has sent an
invitation to luncheon at the ex-
elusive Maryland Club to the
editors of the states weekly news
papers Because of the press of
business in the Senate, ETC., he
hasn't been able to keep up with
Id friends, etc, and welcomes the
opportunity to renew old acquaint-
ances etc.
The demonstrating which Mr..
Dodd is supervising in Maryland
is reported to be running into OBJ
stacles. The business men are
said to be cooperating splendidly
but there are eighty questions
which housewives are to be asked.
And where these questions have
been asked, results are none too
happy. For one thing, the census
takers are from the neighborhOod,
and the questions are highly per
sonal. The suggestion has been
made that people would answer
strangers more readily.
Ben Rosenstock Frederick law
yer has his eye on an empty seat
in the House of Delegates left by
Bob Clapp, now an assistant at
oaney-general. Mr.. Rosenstock
would like the job, and maybe he'll
get it, but it seems odd of him to
expect it as a gift of the county
organization which is all but sup
porting Mr. Bruce while Mr.. ROSen-
stock goes around all for Senator
Radcliffe.
Not many people know it, but
there is man in Frederick who
could get anything within reason
he wanted from Senator Tydings.
He's a close friend of the Senator's

visable for me to repair the place
or to make arrangements to sell ?
Ans: Make the necessary re-

overwhelming success in the cafe
terra business with no experience

opinion?
Ans: Your case is unfortunate,
but it is only temporary. You
