and climate we'll adapted to growing
tobacco, but tobacco growing is pro-
hibited and the entire supply of leaf

pounds of leaf tobacco were imported,
valued at more than $4,000 600, OF
which the greater part was used in
making cigarettes.
There is a very limited field for the
sale of manufactured tobacco in Egypt,
