has retarded growing weather, in

NEW GOVERNMENT
TUX REQUIRES RAISE
THEATER ADMISSIONS
The first direct affect of the new
“Balance the Budget” emergency
taxes felt in Seward, comes today
in the announcement of a raise in
theater admission.
“This is not a tax on the theater,”
said D. C. Brownell, owner of the
Liberty theater, “as we already pay
$100 a year license besides the lo
cal city taxes, but is a means of
getting an additional revenue from
the public-at-large. The theaters
do the collecting from their custo
mers, and turn it over to the gov
ernment. It is one of the heaviest
taxes imposed, 10 per cent.”
When asked if the other thea
ters were raising admissions, Mr.
Brownell answered: “Yes; we were
advised in the last mail that all
theaters in Alaska were making
the advance of five cents and we
were expected to do so. I am sor
ry we have to take this action, but
the theater is not doing enough
business to pay the tax from its
present receipts, and we are sure
are patrons understand and will
cheerfully contribute the added 5c
that the government has decreed
must be collected from each adult
ticket. Children’s, are not advanc
ed.”
