Liquor Tax Debate Shapes Virginia Legislation
General Gibson comments on federal liquor taxation and state stores. Senator Lesner proposes an amendment allowing state distilleries with prices from 1.00 to 1.50 per quart and 5,000 gallon daily capacity at 150000 cost. House advances bills on taxes, audits, and a drunken drivers penalty, with budget hearings resuming as reform measures and asylums debates continue.
