British obacco Men
Add 81 Gents Price to
CoUer New a Cent Tax

London. Eng. June q - The most
unpopular persons in England at the
present day are the retail tobacco
dealers. They are accused Of the most
brazen stroke of war profiteering that
has yet been achieved. The budget
introduced last week raised the tax
on tobacco by ~ cents pound
ThereupOn almost all OF the dealers
announced raise in prices averag-
ing on all forms of tobaccor about
81 cents a pound The dealers take
advantage OF an extra tax to charge
the consumer the tax and also an
extra profit Of 20 cents a pound.
The consumers are indignant, but
as the dealers generally hang to-
gether. the consumers have no rem
edy except to stop using tobacco.
There is an additional grievance in
that large proportion Of the tobacco
used in England is consumed by the
soldiers in training, on leave, or in
hospitals, and purchased by home peO-
pie to send TO their soldiers at the
front
The profits from this increased tax
really work out at more than 90 cents
a pound, because both the tax and
profit are charged oil all the tobacco
in stock which paid duty at the old
rate. So that, on the stocks in hand
when the duty was raised, the dealers
are making new profit Of 81 cents
pound.
The tobacco trade Will make about
S55,000,000 a year for collecting the
new duty which is expected 10 yield
$4,000, 600 revenue, according to the
estimates Of a correspondent of the
Daily Mail He figures also that
the traders have about 100000 600
pounds in stock on which they will
charge the new duty to consumers,
without having paid it themselves

The pro-German part OF the

mand from Berlin Some OF the pa
pers supporting the cause Of Germany
have become so abusive and violent
in their denunciation Of America that
the government has found it neces-

criminal prosecution for violation Of

The most scurrilous Of the pro-

there are strong grounds for the sup
position that the abusive editorial

Mercenary Aims.
The claim that the United states
entered the war on account OF the en-
thusiasm Of the American people for
the ideals Of humanity is pure cant.
The high sounding phrases of presi-
dent Wilson and all patriotic demon
STATIONS cannot hide the fact that
American entrance on the side of the
entente is the result of \ gigantic
and INSCRIPTIONS deal. The great
American republic always pursued
the policy which promised the largest
cash returns and never bothered its
head about ideals and the rights Of
other nations
American financiers care little for
the trade with Germany and Austria
Hungary after the war. because their
Intimate commercial alliance with the
entente promises them FAR greater
advantages. The United States have
never been neutral. al least not in the
sense which is given to the term neu-
trality in Europe.
The Americans have not entered
the war 10 guard their rights. They
only want TO make more money. Their
principal aim is TO keep their war in
dCstries going in order that their
multi mill.onaires may be able to pile
up still more colossal fortunes To
