SMOKES FOR ALL U. S. TROOPS
Forces Abroad May Now Draw To-
bacco as Part of Ration.

Washington, May developments
OF tobacco to be issued with rations
to the american troops abroad al
ready have gone forward, War De
partment officials said today, Ex-
tensive purchases have been made tc
insure a steady supply.
The men may draw daily their new
ration Of one-tiftll oi an ounce in
cigarette tobacco and papers, in plug
tobacco for chewing or use in pipes,
or in cigarettes already rolled.
Where ready made cigarettes are
drawn the daily allowance will b.
Jour cigarettes.
Officers recognize that the allow
ancc made is somewhat limited, but
since the Rcd Cross, y. NJ. (. y. and
comnissary agencies are available
where the allowance can be supple
mented by the troops at their own
expense, there is no prospect OF the
soldiers going without what they
need.
one effect OF making tobacco a
part OF the regular draft ration is to
insure its prompt delivery to the men
no matter where they may be. In
taking this action, the War Depart
ment obligates itself to get smoking
materials to the troops as much as it
already was obligated to feed them in
every emergency.
