ablc falling off in the consumption OF
tobacco and liquors in the twelve months
ended June 80 is indicated by the pre-
liminary report of Commissioners OF In
ternal Revenue Osborn for the fiscal
year. made public here tonight.
The Commissioner reported that the
ordinary internal revenue collections
from those sources were S25, 900, 29l less
than for the preceding fiscal year
Revenue experts explained the decrease
as partially due to the tendency of the
American people to economic by cut
tine down on their smoking and drink
ing in the period Of uncertainty which
followed the outbreak of the European
war.
~Propaeandists Of the prohibition move
ment are expected to claim a large
measure OF credit for the decrease in
the amount of liquors on which taxes
were paid.
The ordinary collections on distilled
shirts fell off Sl6,924.lO4 from the total
iu the preceding year. The collections
on fer7nented liquors were $6,4G6,245
less.
The commissioners report shows that
the quantity of distilled spirits on which
taxes were paid in the past year was
approximately -, 900, 600 gallons less
than in the fiscal year 1914. The total
number of gallons for the year was APP
proximately $4,000 900.
The quantity of beer II other fer
mented liquor on which taaes We're paid
amounted to 6.35S.744 barrels The
total number of barrels was 80, Ii6,1ol.
as against 66.l05,4i5 for the previous
year.
Apparently a number of persons who
hitherto had smoked cigars resorted TO
cigarettes last year as Il means of saw
ing money. The production of cigars
decreased nearly 700, 000, 000, while the
number of cigarettes increased 329,-
OOO. 600.
The quantity OF snuf on which taxes
were paid decreased 2,921,667 pounds.
