Taxes shift to liquor taxes as reform rewrites burden
Washington reports a tax shift of about 225 million dollars yearly from motorists investors and businessmen to liquor drinkers as the 18th Amendment changes phase in. Liquor taxes are projected to reach over 500 million annually after a January congressional increase. Current 1.10 per gallon tax on domestic spirits is set to yield 16.5 million in the first month post repeal, with imported whiskies facing a 5 dollar per gallon tariff and an added revenue boost from 4 million gallons imported. If the 4,000,900 gallons arrive in the first month, an extra 24.49 million would be realized, lifting liquor revenue to 40.9 million that month and about 450.8 million yearly, excluding beer and wine levies. The abolished five percent dividend tax and several small excise and capital taxes will be replaced by these liquor levies. Wilmington report notes James S. Young, 36, Port William mayor, held for grand jury after pleading guilty to embezzling 104 dollars from Port William Banking Company. he was assistant cashier.
