CIGARETTE CRUSADE

British Smokers.

LONDON, July 19.-JuYenile cigarette
smoking, which has become an acute
problem In Great Britain. has been in
vestigated by a government committee.
Startling evidence OF the extent Of the
evil has been given, one tremndOus fact
cited being that $4,000 900 cigarettes IN
2-cent packets are sold in a week.
Mr. CASTOR, an American business man
In London. whose sister originated the
anti-cigarette trust IN America, told the
committee that the American cigarette Is
the worst thing our country sends tc
you-wOrse than Chicago timed meat"
He went on 10 give horrifying details
OF the manufacture OF cheap cigarettes
in America. how they are drugged, etc,
and described the legislation against ci-
garette smoking in various States.
The committee will probably recon-
mend in its report an act 10 prevent ci-
gaTetteg being sold 10 boys. and perhaps
a prohibitive duty on cigarettes import
ed from America.
