For all hard and distilled liquor, beer and wine received on or after

regular Liquor Revenue Strip Tax Stamps must be placed on each

stamps or the regular “Liquor Revenue Strip Tax Stamps.’’ In the
larger incorporated towns, special agents have been appointed to
handle the sale of the tax stamps. In the outlying communities,
the U. S. Commissioners have been appointed to handle the sale of
the tax stamps.
The above regulations have been made necessary in observing
Chapter 78, Session Laws of Alaska, 1937. Section 7 of this Chapter
in part reads as follows: "Every brewer, distiller, bottler, or
wholesaler selling intoxicating liquors in the Territory shall be re
quired to pay on all malt beverages (alcoholic content of one per
cent or more by volume), wines and hard or distilled liquors, the
following prescribed taxes:., malt beverages at the rate of five cents
per gallon OR FRACTION THEREOF; wine, or any other liquors
of nineteen per cent of alcohol by volume or less, at the rate of
fifteen cents per gallon OR FRACTION THEREOF; any other liqu
ors having a content of more than nineteen per cent of alcohol by
volume shall pay at the rate of fifty cents per gallon. This tax is
to be paid to the Territorial Treasurer who will furnish Strip Tax

containers or packages. These stamps are to be attached by the
brewer, distiller, bottler, wholesaler or importer into whose hands
the liquor shall first come. The Treasurer of the Territory shall
designate places of sale of Territorial Revenue Stamps in such a
way that they will be easily procurable by all license holders.”
