BAD HABITS GROW
At ENORMOUS RATE
IN UNITED STATES
Revenue Figures for Year
Show Appalling Liquor
and Tobacco Bills
HIGH RECORD MADE
FOR FISCAL YEAR
Popular Impression That Snuff Con-
sumption Is Decreasing Is Shat
tered by Figures Just
Compiled
ny c. E. STEWART

Washington, September 3.-(Special)
We are doing more smoking, more chew
Ing more drinking more snuff dipping
In the United States than ever before.
Bad habits are on the boom, and the
armies of the prohibitionists and those
who war on the tobacco evil must stand
appalled, at the figures of Uncle Sam
liquor and tobacco bills.
Commissioner of Internal Revenue Os-
born, in his preliminary report of the op--
erations of the bureau for the fiscal year
ending June 30 makes all these startling
revelations. He shows that for the year
Ell ding the lasr day of June. the in
ternal revenue bureau collected the enor-
NOUS sum Of s344. .424 452 s5. This is far in
excess OF any yearly internal revenue
collections in history.
The previous record was established in
1911 when the internal reveneue collee-
tions amounted to 1922 SIG, 299. .73. But the
collections for the fiscal year just ended
exceed this record by s21,S9S, ,154.12.
Internal revenue officials are proud of
the low cost of making these collections
To collect the enormous sum above men

for 1913 was much less than the previous
year, but this deficit was more than
made up in an increase from the Philip
pines. There was a loss in the former of
81, I65. 80 and an increase in the latter
of s94. 49,, ,5S9
Quantities of Articles Consumed
One of the interesting features of Com
missioner Osborns report is table
showing the quantities of articles con-
! sumed in the United States on which a
tax is paid.
The table shows that in 1913, 2,s01 7s7
gallons of spirits from apples, peaches,
grapes, pears, pineapples oranges april
cots, berries, prunes. figs and cherries,
We're consumed by the American people
This Is an increase of 352, 436 gallons over
1912. In 1913 the American people drank
,S3l gallons more whisky than in the
previous year. In addition to this in
1913, or the fiscal year. the people of
the United States consumed 65, 5,544 bar
rels of fermented liquors, including beer,
ale and the like. which was an increase
of 1891 barrels We smoked 8,732, ,815,-
703 cigars and 1900, 100000 cigarettes In
the fiscal year of 1913.
For the purpose of taxation, cigars and
oisarettes divided into two classes
each by the revenue collectors. Cigars
are divided into classes of those weighing
more than three pounds per 1000 and those
weighing not more than three pounds to
the 1000. There We're 7,699,0s7543 cigars
weighing more than three pounds to the
1000 consumed an increase of 442, ,647, ,240
over 1912. While those weighing less than
three pounds to the 1000 showed a decrease
of $40 as compared with 1912. which,
shows that We are not only increasing
the number of cigars smoked, but also
the size.
There has been a popular impression
that snuff has not been used as extern
sively since the civil war days is proven
to be erroneous by the report. The total
amount of snuff used for the fiscal year
of 1913 was SO, 2O9 46S pounds. This is an
increase of 3,1299S6 pounds over the fiscal
year of 1912, sufficient evidence that the
snuff users are still busy.
Chewing tobacco kept pace with the
other kinds in an increase over the pre-
ceding years. In 1918 there We're 404,362, ,62C
pounds of smoking and chewing tobacco
used, 10,5T474 more pounds than was
used in the fiscal year of 1912.
Unfortunately the statistics do not give
| the sex consumption, which would give
an opportunity to judge whether the men
are alone responsible for these increases,
| or whether or not the use of strong drink
and tobacco Is growing among the women
of the country together with their politi-
cal aspirations
