James V. Davis, opposing the $150 tax as unreasonable, said he| | supposed that two years hence some | | member would propose “a painl |tax on snoose.” Rep. Frank Whaley questioned the right. of the Legislature to increase! by 200 percent the tax on a com-| modity which the people had so re-; | cently shown by vote that it wants| to enjoy. Rep. Crystal Snow Jenne said that she opposed placing all the respon- | sibility for collecting liquor taxes on | the dealer and said that “if the gen- | eral public wishes to enjoy this lux-| ury let them pay for it.” Rep. Howard Lyng said the Legis- |lature should not attempt to make |up all the deficiencies in its income from the liquor business.
