Beer Tax Revenue
Increase Is Seen
Revenue produced by the
state tax on beer has amounted
to $19,209,874 which is 15 times
greater than the total valuation
of all school property in New
berry county, it was revealed
this week.
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.

GM Hydra-Matic Drive
optional* on all models
line Yesterday — Finer Today!
For years, Pontiac has led its field in many of the basic aspects of
motor car character.
It has been outstanding in appearance—with its distinctive Silver
Streak styling and beautiful bodies by Fisher. It has been consistently
praised for its performance—based on smooth, powerful six and eight
cylinder engines. It has a record for long life and dependability
unsurpassed in the automotive industry.
And now, in the 1948 Pontiac, comes revealing proof of Pontiac’s
continuing leadership. Not only is the new Pontiac far more beautiful
and luxurious—but it offers, as optional equipment on all models,
the famous GM Hydra-Matic Drive! This mechanical masterpiece,
which eliminates the clutch pedal and makes shifting entirely auto
matic, is one of the greatest contributions to driving ease and safety
in the history of the motor car. And Pontiac is the world’s lowest-
priced car to make it available to the motoring public.
There are fifteen Pontiac models—each more beautiful and more
luxurious than ever—and each an outstanding value. You are cordially
invited to see and inspect them today.
