Prohibition Tax Measure Moves Through Senate Finance Panel
Washington June 4. Prohibition legislation approved by the Senate Finance Committee as part of the war tax bill would impose prohibitive taxes on distillery whisky and other spirits for beverage use. Beer and wine taxes set by the House remain unchanged but awaiting final action. The plan would suspend beverage production and likely force bonded warehouses to curb liquor, aiming to conserve foodstuffs for war needs. The committee says the dual goal is reducing consumption and controlling the distilling industry while industrial alcohol remains unaffected.
