bring at least $21,461,9 ,954 more revenue
each year than the present bill Will
produce. He would also correct the
Injustice to the people. During the
Spanish war the revenue of tobacco
raised for revenue and manufacturers
were also authorized to reduce the size
of the packages in which the tobacco
was sold. When the war tax was re-
moved, the short weight packages con-
tinued. The manufacturer was reliev-
ed of the tax but the consumer was
not relieved of short packages. He
described the tobacco trust as perhaps
the most compact and effective private
monopoly in existence. Within five
hours after the amendment was intro
duced. Beveridge said the trust would
aave the ablest men in Washington
fighting 1t. He also predicted that
agents will be sent to the cigar makers
of the country to frighten them as
against their interests. The Beveridge
amendment increases the rate on chew
ing. smoking and fine cut tobacco,
from six to nine cents per pound. He
also proposed graduate increase in
cigars above those selling at less than
three for a quarter, increasing the
revenue of high priced cigars alone.
He also proposed an increase in tae
tariff of snuff and cigarettes.
