Just a Pipe Dream.

From ST. Paul, Mimi. Dispatch. May II, 'O7}
The widely prevalent report. accord
ing TO tests made by the flood COM
mission"-presumably the Minnesota
state dairy and food epartment-pOp-
ular brands Of smoking tobacco are
mainly straw or brown paper, was re-
pudiated today by Acting Commits
sioner John McCabe.
The Minnesota department, Mr.. Nc
Cabe says, has not analyzed tobacco;
is not analyzing tobacco and has no
intention of analYzing tobacco. So
far as he has been able to learn, no
analysis of tobacco on the market has
been made by any state or government
chemists. Though ordinarily good at
riddles. the acting commissioner can t
even guess how the canard could have
started.
He first read the story four months
ago. Since then it has been reprinted
throughout the Northwest, Several
correspondents have sent him clip
ping from the Fairmont Sentinel,
formerly owned by Frank Day, now
private secretary TO Governor John
son.
According to the Sentinel story
typical Of the rest-only per cent OF
a well known ''sliced" tobacco is to-
bacco. When the fastidious smoker
buys this curved CUT, according to the
story in circulation, he is simply an
nexing a package of brown paper
pressed ia thin cakes. Even better
quality of brown paper could be
bought for one-tenth the price. Any
butcher could do the cutting with
sausage machine. and any tailor the
pressing with flatron. At least the
story says so.
Nor does this corruption of the in
aIenabe pleasures of citizen contine
itself to the den Of the faStidious
smoker, the college campus or the
club. The sailor ashore or aflOat, the
farmer figuring his profits If the wheat
goes on skvrocketing, are gold-bricked
every time they buy bag of 'slnOk-
ing" labeled with the familiar figure
of bull. Ten per cent of that one
brand, the report generously admits,
is tobacco, the rest being "straw
paper finely clipped after being dip
ped in tobacco juice"
"The only outcome Of this story
that can think Of" Mr.. McCabe said
today, ''is that tobaccos sold under
names Of places must hereafter come
really from those places. HAVANA
tobacco, for instance, cannot come
from Virginia. understand that to
be one of the regulations in the new
food and drug law passed by Congress.
1.-THE story may be some trade fic-
tion designed to injure business
rival. But the assertion that any
popular tobacco is nine-tenths spur
ious borders on the ridiculous"

filed with the commission some time ago

Trainmen, against te New York Central

the railroads have cut down the number
Of breakemen employed to operate their
trains and that the forces on trains at
present are insufficient to provide for
their operation with safety. He also
charged that the work required of the
employees j. more than they are capable
Of doing efficiently.
Both railroads have replied to the COM
