W. N. Cooper, who is presi dent of the South Carolina Beer Wholesalers association, said that beer revenue had been greater than the combined total school valuation in 27 of the state’s 46 counties. He said that the revenue was sufficient to exceed the valua tion of school property, both white and negro, in Newberry and 25 other counties. Total valuation of school property in 27 counties, according to the annual report of the state de partment of education, amount ed to $18,456,891. Total valua tion for Newberry county was fixed at $1,070,923 for white schools and $149,215 for negro schools. All figures dealing with rev enue were taken from state tax commission reports. Cooper ex plained. Revenue from the tax on beer has consistently increased since the beverage of moderation was legalized in 1933. In six months of that year the revenue totaled only $150,220 while nn the fis cal year of 1946-47, the total came to $2,884,469.76 for beer alone. The present fiscal year, however, is breaking all records since income in the first six months has already amounted to $2,924,916. NEED MONEY?
