Repeal Blame at Doors
of New York, Hollywood

Grand Rapids, Mich. Sept Tins
Two cities, Hollywood and New
York. were significantly instru-
mental in the repeal of prohibition,
DR.. Paul n. Elbin, president OF the
West Virginia State Teachers Col.
lege. declared today at the 67th an
nual convention OF the National
Women's Christian Temperance
Union
A group of super-sophisticates
put over something on the plain
people in 1882 DR.. Elbin asserted,
adding:
The original pincers movement
was not tried on France or Poland.
1t was tried here when New York
and Hollywood combined to set the
manners, morals, customs, and
thoughts Of America"
Indeed, since Hollywood is con-
trolled by New York, the conquest
IS even simpler. One city dominates
the radio networks, the press, the
theater, the. publishing business,
and the financial interests OF the
country. And polyglot New York
City never wanted prohibition, new.

lated to many other lines of endeavor
which, as a group, are of great i'm
portance to the people of the State.
"There is without doubt limit be-
yond which it is not feasible to tax
the products of distillers. There are
not sufficient data to establish an ir-
REPUTABLE case concerning the most
desirable level for liquor taxes though
some conclusions can be made con-
cerning the probable economic and So
cial effects of further increases in the
tax rates. The stability of past reve-
nue. from taxes on distilled beverages
does not warrant the assumption on
the part of State officials that gallon
age rates can continue to be increased
without having some influence on the
volume of sales and on the quality of
the product, which might tend to dis
turb the future stability of revenue.
"The increase of consumption taxes
on distilled spirits has result pecul-
AuA W 1IC pIOuuCtS tAoI 1S, IAlS hp-
pearance of illicit liquors accompan-
led by an army of bootleggers who
pay no taxes and obey very few laws
and are yet in full competition with
legal distillers. Every increase in
price of distilled spirits to the con-
sumer without corresponding in
crease in purchasing power gives the
bootlegger a better opportunity.
There is ample evidence as to the diff
ficulty of stopping the illegal trade
once it is we'll established. This is
surely situation where prevention
of illegal operations is clearly the
course to take. The preventative is a
tax system which makes a conscious
effort to find the level of tax-price
which reduces the illicit
trade to a minimum while yielding
proper revenue from a business that
has been legalized."

BEVERAGES ARE
VERY VALUABLE
FOR REVENUE

Maryland received 11%o of its total
state revenue from taxes on alcohol
ic beverages in 1910, according to a
report just published by the Univer-
sity of Maryland on a study of the
economic aspects of the distilling in
dustry in this State. This study was
made under the supervision of DR..
s. H. DeVault and William Paul
Walker, of the faculty of the Depart
ment of Agricultural Economics, who
have frequently served as advisers on
tax matters to the Governor, the Leg
islature, special tax commissions and
various farm organizations through
out the State.
Distillers in Maryland covered by
the study paid Federal taxes of $780,
949,078 and state and local taxes Of
$277,946 in 1910, according to their
report. Pointing out that taxes on
distilled spirits constitute the major
portion of all alcoholic beverage tax
es, the authors conclude that the
Federal, State and local govern
ments which share in the direct and
indirect taxes on distilled spirits can
not afford to jeopardize these reve-
nues or to encourage illicit trade by
excessive taxation on distillers and
distilled spirits under present condi-
tions."
The report shows that in 1910 the
distilling industry in Maryland had
capital investment of $4,000
paid out $2,3OO,OO0 in wages, spent
$7,633,0 900 for raw materials, and
purchased services and supplies val
.ued at $5,500,00O from other indus
trial concerns. The industry produc-
ed 11,862,6S2 proof gallons of raw
spirits during that period, and paid
taxes, or assumed obligation for tax
es presumably recoverable through
sale price, of over $3O,00O,OOO.
Grains and malts represented about
30% of the cost of the basic mater
ials used in the manufacture of dis
titled spirits in Maryland during the
year covered by the study, and the
distilling industry OF. the State spent
$2,273, 1853 for such grains that year.
A total of 2,84O,792 bushels of high
quality grains, including 1,119,154
bushels of corn and LII, $50 bushels
of rye was used. This represented a.
bout one-sixteenth of the amount of
corn and four and one-half times the
amount of rye produced annually by
farmers in Maryland. More than $4,-
100000 was spent in Maryland and
elsewhere for barrels, bottles, and a.
bout $4,000 0for electricity and fuel.
"The distilling industry in Mary
land is not an isolated enterprise"
says this report. "It is not only a
highly important source of State and
local revenue, but is also closely re-

 Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service staif writer

NEA Service Staff Writer
 The other day we asked 8 young magazine writer how she manages always to be so well-groomed, how she maintains the just-stepped d-out- -band-box look day in and day out.
 Her answer was: T just pretend that I have a really important lunch date every day and I dress accord ingly."
 She went on to say that this pretense keeps her fdOm putting oil having her hair done just one more day from not applying fresh polish between manicures, from wearing a blouse that isn't quite fresh or a hat with a bedraggled veil.
 "Just before go to bed, al- ways go ever in my mind what l am going to put on the next morn ing" she continued. "The black and white dress, the red bracelet, the white hat" say to myself. Then if I am not exactly sure where the bracelet is, I search for 1t right then instead of waiting until morning. l use my forty-five minutes between the ringing of the alarm and breakfast for bathing and dressing not for hunting for odds and ends of this and that"
 She added that she reserves one evening a week for sorting stockings and putting aside those too full of tiny pulled spots to be worn to the office again; putting soiled dresses in a pile for the dry cleaner; re- placing lest snaps or hooks; fixing a crooked hemline; washing hair brushes; doing bit of pressing; strengthening dresser drawers; fast e1ling loose shoulder straps.
 KEEPS WARDROBE
 LOOKING FRESH
 'T try not to let my wardrobe become greatly depleted " she fur- ther explained. "When my topcoat begins to look slightly seedy, l start watching sales and buy another as soon as can instead of waiting until the old one is badly worn.
 Then, too, at sales buy sev- eral blouses of the type which will go with any suit l might have for years to come. I buy suits that don't go out of style and simple dresses. with whatever money I have left, I buy silly hats, lapel gadgetS and other nonsense with which to dress up the classic, conservative dresses, coats and suits"
