changed their views.
Such statements we denounce as
untrue. The committees indorse-

The Egyptians on the other hand, being able to raise en- ly inferior grades, saw that unless something was done, the fine Egyp- tian brand would soon be discred- ited, so in order to keep up the high standard of Egyptian" to- bacco. and to retain the prestige and glory which the Turkish to- bacco had brought them, the Egvp tan government employed the drastic measure of prohibiting any growth of the plant in Egypt.
