Laurel Farmer Sees Big Tax
Increase Under Prohibition
The following statement by C. D. Haskell, Laurel,
Nebraska, farmer and vice-president of the Nebras
ka Federation of County Taxpayers Leagues, mem
ber of the Committee of Men and Women Against
Prohibition, was given to the newspapers of the
state ^September 14, 1944:
#
Every branch of state and local government prob
ably would suffer if we remove the alcoholic beverage
industry* from the tax rolls. Tax authorities estimate
that Nebraska collects about $3,500,000 annually from
beer and liquors in state, county and local taxes and
fees.
Not only would the state lose this annual revenue,
which would have to be made up from other sources,
but additional hundreds of thousands of dollars would
be needed to set up and maintain some kind of enforce
ment organization throughout the state. Government
costs in every county, village and city would probably;
be increased.
The state liquor tax paid $2,216,173.26 for Old Age
Assistance and other functions of the State Assistance
Department in the fiscal year 1942*1943. I know the
people would not want to do away with state assist
ance, so this revenue would have to be replaced, which’
would mean an increased property tax or some new.
form of tax, such as a sales tax or income tax.
Many people do not realize the importance of the
liquor tax revenues to the state. Many of us forget
that the Federal Government matches the spirituous
beverage taxes used for old age assistance, which
means that the actual loss to Nebraska would run
around $4,500,000 if the tax were not replaced. It
would have to be replaced, no question about it. And
this means higher taxes, new taxes for everyone.
Another thing few people realize: County, city and
other governmental subdivisions of the state also col
lect large amounts of revenue from the industry, in
addition to the direct beverage tax collected by the
state government. Approximately $500,000 yearly is
paid to counties and cities in license fees and occupa
tional taxes bv retail dealers.
To all of these revenues must be added real estate,
personal and miscellaneous taxes paid by brewers,
distributors, dealers, etc. This makes a total in the
neighborhood of $3,500,000 a year. This is not “pin
money.” It’s big money to me, anyway.
I do not believe the people of Nebraska want to
deliberately vote a big increase in general taxes on
themselves. But that is just what they will be doing
if they go back to prohibition in November. History
plainly shows prohibition is not enforceable and
doesn’t prohibit anyway, and would require hundreds
of thousands of dollars to make even a show at
enforcement.

A Pumpkin Cake for Hallowe’en *
OF COURSE you can afford to
make a cake with fortified mar
garine whether you are counting
ration points or pennies. Here is
a recipe quick and easy to follow
—a delicious spice cake with all
the trimmings.
Hallowe’en Spice Cake
H cup fortified % tsp. baking soda
margarine % tsp. salt
1 cup (firmly 2 tsps. baking
packed) brown powder
sugar % tsp. each of
1 egg ginger, mace,
2% cups flour allspice
1 cup thick sour milk
Cream the margarine, add the
sugar gradually, beating well as
you add. Add the unbeaten egg and
beat well. Sift together the dry in
gredients and add alternately with
the sour milk, about one-third of
each at a time. Bake in two 10
lnch or three 9-inch layer pans,
greased and lined with paper; in
moderate oven about 25 minutes.
Put together with Seven-Minute
Frosting or with Pastel Jelly Frost
ing.
Pastel Jelly Frosting
I cup tart apple Dash of salt
jelly Dash of powdered
I egg whites mace
unbeaten
Turn jelly into rather large mix
ing bowl and fit bowl over sauce
pan of hot water. Add egg whites
and the dash of salt. Beat with
rotary beater until jelly is com
pletely dissolved. Remove pan from
over fire and continue beating until
mixture is stiff enough to stand In
peaks. Cool slightly before spread
ing on cake.
Note: this is a beautiful fluffy frost
ing, a sugar-saver and easy to make
but it does not stand up as well as
Seven-Minute Frosting and should
be used on cakes to be eaten that
same day.
Candy Pumpkin Decorations
1 cup brown >4 cup milk
sugar 1% cups sifted
2 tbs. fortified confectioners’
margarine sugar
Dash of salt 1 tsp. vanilla
Measure sugar, margarine, salt

tioners’ sugar gradually along with
the vanilla. Shape into little pump
kins and use as decoration on top
of cake.

more vigilence on the part of Nebr
aska *■ motorists and by its ever in
creasing effort to further safety ed
ucation
Heading the list of the Patrol’s
September activities was the issu
ance of 1439 violation cards, which
are courtesy repair cards for equip
ment violations. 910 motorists in
distress were assisted, while 555 dan
gerous obstructions were removed
from the highways- Following its
policy, the Patrol gave 425 written
warnings for violations that were
considered not Serious enough to
warrant arrests- 598 other motorists
made such dangerous ivolations that
arrests were necessary. These ar
rests included 122 for spteding over
the state speed limit, 54 for reckless
driving, 48 for driving while intoxic
ated, and 42 for stop sign violations.
Stolen cars recovered numbered 12.
In its safety education efforts the
Patrol gave 27 safety talks to Schools
and civic groups. Through safety
education in the schools and the Pa
trol’s safety activities, many motor
ists and pedestrians have become saf
ety minded.
Nebraska should be proud of her
record for this year, especially when
14 lives have been saved and the na
tion as a whole has had a 6 percent
increase in accident fatalities. Ixt’s
continue this splendid record, each
motorist doing his part in preventing
accidents.
