NEWS and FACTS ... of Statewide Interest
The 8th Birthday
of One of North Carolina's
Biggest Taxpayers!
On May 1, 1933, beer was re-legalized in North Carolina. Since that
time, it has paid taxes as follows
To The State Treasury $6,777,854.76
To North Carolina Counties 993,750.00
To Our Cities and Towns , 377,500.00
This $8,149,104.76 total is in addition, of course, to federal taxes
amounting to about $7,000,000. Thousands of new jobs have been cre
ated, moreover, bringing in a new stream of income and a re-vitalizatf 'A
of trade in North Carolina.
Social Benefits, Too
Important as well are the social results. The American brewing indus
try has promoted a vigilant campaign to protect the public against abuses
in the retail sale of beer a campaign to see that the reputation of the
thousands of retailers operating legally and decently is not smeared by
the relatively few who would use a beer license to shield illegal activities.
In the past two years, for example, the North Carolina beer industry's
''Clean Up or Close Up" program has resulted in the elimination of 155
undesirable outlets.
The brewing industry submits this record to you because it takes justi
fiable pride in it. Your support has made the achievements possible;;
your continued support will make results even more outstanding.
