Lie Denies UN Resale Of Tax Free Liquor
United Nations Secretary General Trygve Lie said UN employees have not resold tax free liquor but warned any such resales would be severely dealt with. He cited the National Retail Liquor Package Stores Association as the source of general charges. He noted about 45 of the UN's 3,000 workers are entitled to buy tax free wine and liquor for entertainment. Diplomats at national delegations are also exempt from liquor taxes. A US customs official said investigations will be joined with the Bureau of Internal Revenue into the reports of UN liquor tax violations.
