IS GIVEN MILLIONS
TOBACCO TRUST HAS MONEY THAT
SHOULD BE IN TREASURY.


Washington, June 24.--Declaring
that the American Tobacco Company,
which is ordinarily spoken Of as the
tobacco trust, had been the recipient
of many millions of dollars which 9TH
erwise would have gone into the ma
( tionai treasury because Of the failure
iof the government to require q
changed size Of tobacco package when
the war revenue law was repealed,
Senator Beveridge today spoke at
length In support of his amendment to
the tariff bill correcting this omission.
Mr.. Beveridge declared that II adopt
ed his amendment would give the gov
eminent more than s21, 100000 Of rev.
enue and correct the wrong which the
people had suffered for eight years
when" he said, the tariff bill came
from the House to the Senate 1t In
creased the tax on cigarettes--a poor,
miserable increase. Yet the Finance
Committee of the Senate actually has
struck out this little increase on cigar
cites"
Mr.. Beveridge asserted that the
American tax on tobacco Is only a
fraction Of the tax of most other CIV
Ilized nations. Stating that the annual
consumption Of tobacco In this country
amounts to I'VE and half
pounds for every man, woman
and child. he said that If
we taxed tobacco at the same rate as
Is imposed by England and France we
would every year derive $3.50, 386.66e,
instead of less than $4,000, 900 as at
present Furthermore. he asserted that
the tobacco tax Is now lower than at
any previous time except for a few
years prior to 1898.
The American Tobacco Company. Mr..
Beveridge declared, had absorbed more
than $50 separate concerns. Where
necessary. 1t has undersold competi-
tors and had even gone to the extent
Of purchasing many independent con-
Germs and of keeping the purchase Sc
eret, in order that 1t might use such
concerns to wage still more effective
warfare against other Independents.
He also charged that the company had
spent money to prevent adverse State
TT has" he asserted. EN-
tered every branch of the business. ex-
ceptfng only cigars, and has "a. larger
monopolistic power than any business
concern in fRe ration. excepting the
stadard OIL Company"
Mr.. Beveridge declared that the
greater proportion 81 the proposed tax
would fall upon the trust, which he
declared. is bitterly resisting the
adoption Of his amendment.
When he concluded, Mr.. Beveridge
sought to obtain a vote on his amend
ment to increase the internal revenue
tax on tobacco. but ultimately Mr.. Bev-
eridge agreed to permit his amend
ment to go over and withdrew 1t tenn
porariiy.
