Newberry was to receive $2,645 as
its share in the whiskey tax according
to figures released by the State Tax
Commission.
Counties receive 20 per cent of the
taxes collected. This per cent is be
ing paid on the old tax of 80c a gal-
I Ion. Since the establishment of the
80c .. gallon tax, revenues have been
increased several times. The tax on
a gallon of wthiskey now comes to
$1.98.
Richland county, with Columbia as
the county seat, was to collect the
greatest amount on whiskey sold, with
Charleston second.

Maybank Gets State-Wide Endorsement
■
1 he vote in the first primary was an endorsement of the re~
cord of Burnet R. Maybank. South Carolina voters from the moun
tains to the seashore went to the polls and voiced their approval
of his candidacy for the United States Senate with a lead of 19,000
votes over his closest opponent.
Burnet R. Maybank is grateful for this magnificent expression
of confidence from the people of the State he loves and has striven
day in and day out to help. -
FURTHER ENDORSEMENT IS SURE
Reports from every part of the State indicate that the vote
for Maybank will be greater than in the first primary. Voters in
increasing numbers are realizing that Maybank gets things done.
IS POPULAR IN WASHINGTON
Not only does Maybank enjoy the respect and confidence of
the President, but of the department heads as well. This friendship
and confidence will be translated into sorely needed industries and
services for South Carolina when Burnet Maybank goes to Wash
ington.
VOTE NEXT TUESDAY, SURE!
It is the duty and privilege of every loyal South Carolinian to go to
the polls next Tuesday, Burnet R. Maybank ivill appreciate your vote
and serve you loyally.
