Koehler further said that he be-

the 5000 delinquents might have

C. 'oagh hoEest ca or.
Disappearance of the liquor from
the warehouse came as surprise
to James Sheehan. assistant chief
clerk at the Detroit warehouse of
the state liquor commission, who
said he had no knowledge the
liquor had vanished. --.
r. Glen Dunn, chairman Of the
liquor commission. revealed today
that number of licences have
complained about the new ration

ADDITIONAL TAX


ADDITIONAL TAX
Koehler's announcement came
simultaneously with the investiga-
ton of bootleg liquor being brought
into Michigan from Illinois and
Ohio, and the disappearance of 160
bottles OF confiscated liquor from
a Detroit warehouse.
This new tax is an additional 50
gallon on liquor that dealers had
in their possession November /,
Formerly the tax was S4.
Reason for the delinquency.
Koehler believes. is that many
dealers believe they can evade the
federal agents. and that in many
cases they are handling liquor
brought into the state illegally and
do not want it discovered.
HIDE ILLEGAL LIQUORS
For these reasons they have
failed TO make inventories of liquor
in their possession. = =
Koehler has notified the delin-
quents that they have 10 days
in which TO make returns. Under
the law they face a so per cent
additional tax on all liquor held
as of November l, plus 5 per cent
a month.
He revealed for the first time Il
: is the policy OF his department to
audit all returns made by retail
dealers.
! A few months before the new
tax was to become effective his
staff made an investigation of
10000 individuals in Ohio and
Michigan.
II was discovered that shipments
Of illegal liquor were coming into
the state. which meant loss Of
thousands of dollars in taxes. His
! information was turned over to
state officials.
