WHY NOT TAX VIOLATORS?"
"It wilt be Impossible for Prohibition
Director Dnvls te erfpet n plenn-up of
the home brewers of Pennsylvania even
wth ten thousand spies, Charles S.
Weed, executive chnlrmnn of the Asso
ciation Apalnst the 'Prohibition Amend
ment said yesterday. He wns coin cein
mtntlnc upon the instructions received
by Director Davis from Washington te
itep the activities of home wine nnd
beer maker".
"Prem n" reports home brewing Is
Jielnc conducted en a vnst scale in
Pennsylvania at this time. All ever the
Stnte, we hear, (-cores of families nrc
co-nncrntlni: in mnklmj up large sup
ic3 of wine, llccipes. old nnd new.
ire being utilised, and children nru
ratlierlng fruit for the mnking of wine.
"Fear of cheap moonshine and the
bootleggers' hooch lias caused theusnnds
1 of l'enii'5'lvnnlnns te turn te home
brew. They sec no crime In using na
ture's Ingredients provided by the Cren Cren
gter t innlse up n little wine for pos
sible lllncst or for a little harmless eo ee
einbllitv. They have failed utterly te
t the viewpoint of the prohibition
fanatic who has declared by his atti
tude that it Is better te continue the
reign of the bootlegger and bis poison"
than te permit usage of light wines nnd
beer.
"In order te step home brewing in
Pennsylvania Director Davis will have
te extend the jails se n te held half
the population of the Stnte. He will
have te tag and register every apple,
everv blackberry nnd every elderberry.
He will need enough tags te keep the
tag manufacturing mills of the world
ping for the next century. He will
lave te conceal home brew spies In
cry berry patch nnd every npple
orchard In the State, nnd he will have
te install a force of Tem-the-I'eepcrs
In every village nnd every hamlet nnd
in every farming district Tem-the-Pecpcr.s
who can sheet n wicked eje
through kej holes and into dusty cellar
window.
"In the cities and towns he will have
te put three or mere, spies in every
block. Surely, Director Dnvls received
a large order from Washington when
he wns told te clenn up the home brew
ers of l'cniisjlvnnin.
"We. who nre for enforcement, but
have little respect for the law that
he Is trying te enforce, wish him luck
in nn endeavor which would have
tumped a Hercules.
"This is going te be nn expensive
matter, however, for the taxpayer, nnd
in view of the unequal distribution of
the $."00,000,000 extra income tnv we
new have te pay for prohibition we have
a suggestion make which will distribute
the bin den of tln billion or two extiu
this policy will cost the country ns seen
as It is fairly under wny.
"Why net have n home brew tax?
The income tnx returns peuld be used j
te assess it nnd a minimum charge '
might Le tixed of say $1 per month for
everjbedy whose Income is subject only I
te the normal tax, with a graduated
surtnx ns the Income increased. Ne '
doubt many millions could be raised In
this way, and we could incrense our
army of prohibition spies prebnbly until
e could have several in every block ill
werv city of nny size in the country. ,
In this wny a regular tab could be kept j
en eery house, nnd, if necessary, a l
ice te Taxpayers
AUGUST 31st is the last day te pay REAL ESTATE
TAXES without penalty. Fer payments made in Septem
ber one per cent penalty will be added, in Octeber1 two per
cent, November three per cent and in December four per

WATER RENTS for 1922 11010 bear a penalty of five

Cooperate with this Department and
