Beer Contributes
Largely To State’s
Coffers Since May 1
About $50,000 In Revenue De
rived From Beer licenses In
State This Far.
Beer contributed about $50,000 to
North Carolina’s state revenue last
week, the first week the 3.2 per cent
alcoholic beverage was legal in the
state, revenue department officials
estimated.
The figure v does not indude the
thousands of dollars which went into
munVdpal and county treasuries from
sales of dealers’ licenses.
Richard R. McLaughlin, head of
the license tax division of the depart
ment of revenue, said that last week’s
actual receipts already in his office
totaled more than $30,000 and he fig
ured that his field force easily had
dose to $20,000 additional which had
not been reported.
Almost 100 men, including the reg
ular revenue field force, the state
auto theft inspectors and the 67 high
way patrolmen, have been working to
enforce collection of beer taxes.
Wholesalers taxed $150 each have
paid the state $12450; retailers at
$5 each have paid $7,500; salesmen at
$25 each have paid $1,000; and one
chain store (Great Atlantic and Pa
cific Tea Company) has paid a re
tail tax of $8,093. The tax on chain
stores increases for each unit for
which a license is secured.
Receipts from the 1 per cent per
bottle tax on beer totaled $6,000, in
dicating that 600,000 bottles of beer
were shipped into the state through
legal channels last weak. Figures on
the barrel tax were not available.

All Over Country; Try Make

The great events of this world are
not revolutions, and economic confer

great events of this world are babies.
The most important people in this
world are not soldiers, and statesmen
and bankers. The most important
people in this world are mothers, who
are called Upon to bring into existence
a new generation.
So it is fitting that on Mother's

safe-for them, a* it i* agreed by load
ing authorities that at least half the
16 000 woman who die annually in
childbirth, could be saved by adequate
maternity care.
A meeting aimed to help remedy the
situation is scheduled to be held in
Now York City May 12th, with Mrs.
Franklin D. Roosevelt, as principal
speaker. A number of outstanding
medical authorities and educational
leaden are to be on the program. Em
phasis is to be placed on two impor
tant steps to be taken. First, people
should understand that much depends
on the choice of the doctor, and select
one known to have had experience in
maternity cases. After selecting him,
parents must trust his judgment, and
not try to prevail upon him to make
painless a process which cannot al
ways be made free from pain without
increasing the risk of infection and
other undesirable complications. Sec
ond, if a hospital is chosen, it should
be one of high standards, such as
those approved by the American Col
lege of Surgeons, for despite the fact
that each year finds more women go
ing to hospitals, there is no corres
ponding decrease in the mortality
rate. In fact, many authorities be
lieve it is safer for a woman to have
her baby at home, if conditions there
are suitable, unless the mother’s con
dition requires special care.
The Maternity Center Association
of New York, which is, sponsoring the
Mother’s Day meeting, has made a
notable contribution to knowledge of
what adequate maternity care can do
to save mothers’ lives. Among 4,
726 women under their care over a
period of eight years in a certain sec
tion of New York City, the death rate
was reduced two-thirds.
Among those to be present at the
Mother's Day meeting are:
Mrs. Frances Perkins, Secretary of
Labor; Surgeon-General Hugh S.
Gumming; Miss Grace Abbott, Chief
of the Children’s Bureau; Dr. Walter
Chipman, noted obstetrician of Mon
treal; Dr. Linsly Williams, Managing
Director of the New York Academy
of Medicine; Dr. J. Allison Hodges,
President of the Medical Society of
the State of Virginia; and Dr. S. S.
Goldwater, of the American Hospital
Association.
With such an imposing array of
well-informed and influential people
behind this movement to "Make Moth
erhood Safe for Mothers,” it is not
too much to expect the new deal to
include the “Forgotten Woman”.
