Low Price For Whiskey Aimed By New Tax Plan
Congressional tax experts drafted liquor levies on a low scale to drive bootleggers out by legal prices. The plan envisions whiskey at 1.50 to 1.75 per quart with a 55 to 75 cent per quart federal tax. Revenue from liquors and beer was projected at 700 million dollars annually, with beer around 200 million. The medicinal liquor tax remains 1.10 per gallon, and the overall aim is to set a 2 to 3 dollar per gallon tax to balance revenue and low prices.
