prohibition
The following article, giving con
crete facts and figures regarding the
result of prohibition in the South, is
1 reprinted from “Finance:"
“Without bein gactive participants
in the cause of prohibition, and hold
ing no brief for the liquor interests,
many representative citizens of this
section are today trying to figure out
the net results, both financial and
moral, of the prohibition laws which
have been in operation for the past
few years in some of the southern
states. They have not requested in
formation on the subject from men
who are interested in breweries or dis
tilleries, nor have they appealed to
leaders in the past temperance cru
sades for facts, pertaining to the re
sults of this new southern experiment.
On the contrary, they have sought
light on the question from the only
unprejudiced source—officials who re
ceive and disburse moneys of trie
municipalities and the states.
“An exhibition of the facts which
have come to the surface as a result
of these inquiries should be welcome
to every fair-minded American, no
matter what his predilections may
have been in the past, for truth knows
no preference; it asks no favors and
makes no apologies; it simply de
mands a hearing.
“liCt us glance for a moment at
certam facts which have recently

forced themselves into prominence
vithnut the aid of prohibitionists or
anti-prohibitionists: Alubama is now
struggling with a deficit of about $.'b
000,000, which appears to bo the result
of prohibition. To bring the munici
pal conditions, in concrete form, in
to plain review, we will cite the city
of Birmingham. This city, according
to an editorial published in the ‘Sur
vey’ of September, 1015, has discon
tinued its street-cleaning and garbage
collection. It has dispensed with its
health officer, city physician and
market inspector, extinguished half
the lights, cut thes chool term from
nine to seven months, and reduced by
10 per cent the salaries of teachers
who were receiving over $7.'» a month.
It has discontinued one-third of its
police force, and put the remainder
on a 12-hour shift. It closed several
lire stations, stopped every cent of its
appropriations to hospitals, children’s
homes and charities, and reduced by
’one-third the allowance for the main
tenance of parks. In short the city
has cut its expenses $110,000. It was
compelled to make this cut because it
costs the city $1,228,021) a year to op
erate, and only $800,'>.">(> was avail
able. v
“Then, again, more people are en
gaged i: 1 the production of illicit li
quor in Alabama than ever before,
despite the earnest clTorts o! the
secret scrviie oilicials to stamp it out.
There were 170 illicit distilleries seiz
ed and destroyed in 1 !>()<»; in 1014 tin
number had risen to “OS.
“For* lack of funds Georgia has
been compelled to hold up tin* salaries
of school teachers, and recently has
had to place an additional $“,">00,000
■ ond issue on the market.
“Prohibition in Georgia has been
the means of stimulating the i 1 lift
sale of intoxicants neve- before ex
perienced. There were S02 illicit dis
tilleries seized in 1014 as against *»i.»
In 11)06.
“What has been the effect of seven i
years of prohibition in Tennessee .' |
At least $6,000,000 worth of proper?;,
was destroyed and 10.000 men thrown
out of employment as an initial result,
while the linal result, as it appears
at this writing, is that the expense

With Bath $1.50. Special Weekly Rate
of the state government has more
than doubled since the law went into
effect hnd there is a deficit of $1,022,
000 in the state revenues.
I “As a consequence of the loss rn
revenue taxes has been greatly in
| creased. The tax commission of the
Tennessee State Manufactures’ As
| sociation, after an exhaustive investi
gation, reported: ‘There is a tend
ency throughout the state to increase
taxes on an already overburdened
people, both by constant increase of
the assessments as well as the rate.
! Economy in public affairs, whether
state, city or county, is the exception
and not the rule.’
“Illict distilleries have abounded in
Tennessee as in other southern pro
hibition states. In the year 1000
, there were but 54 establishments of
this kind seized, while in 11)14 241)
were destroyed.
“Nashville, in particular, has been
plunged into serious financial trouble.
' Without submitting the question to a
; vote of the people, the city sold bonds
in the sum of $1)87,000 to make up a
deficit brought about largely by the
, cutting olT of privilege licenses money
J formerly paid by liquor sellers.
I “The enforcement of the law in
J Tennessee has made vacant more than
| (><»0 business houses in the four largest
| cities of the state, and 75 per cent of
| them are vacant today. They former
, ly yielded to their owners an average
monthly income of $50. Thus will t»e
seen that there is an economic loss to
i these property owners of ubout $360,
000 a year.
“In July, 1915, West Virginia en
tered its first year of state-wide pro
hibition, and a year’s experience has
resulted in the highest rate of taxa
tion ever known in the history of the
state. The Yest law deprived the
state treasury of $650,000 a year in
licenses formerly taken out by the
liquor dealers. The several counties
of the state that had retained the li
cense system under local option were
deprived of a like amount. The state
increased taxes of all kinds to make
up the loss and the cities and coun
ties did the same.”—Kairbanks News
