The 7 obacco Industry
and Taxes

The aggregate tax paid BY
the tobacco business is with
one exception, income tdres.
the largest item OF internal
revenue the federal government
receives. Last (fiscal) year it
amounted TO 500 ,0l4,050.s4.
OF this enormous amount Of
money the cigarette industry
paid sls2,715,735.e3, or nearly
ltwo-thirds Of the total tax paid
by the entire tobacco business.
The Immediately important
point of the foregoing is the
following: We believe you will
appreciate that when nearly
fifty cents of every dollar paid
by you for cigarettes goes to the
government, you must receive
in cigarettes a value in return
for your money that is rarely
given in any commodity.
That the public generally
appreciates this great value is
shown by the enormous In
crease in the consumption Of
cigarettes.

1t is only by immense volume

Its quality is supreme be-

FRENCH ARE TAKING
UP BASE BALL LINGO

PARIS. October 4.-The announced
transforming tour of the Giants and
White Sox through Europe the last
OF this month and early November
has started the French sporting
scribes studying the vocabulary of
base ball. Some of the French rendi-
tions of the terms familiar to Ameri-
can fans are quaint The translation
for home run is "a complete tour of
the bases" while foul tip is de-
scribed by one writer as ''the bat
just flirted with the ball"
The fans here hope Babe Ruth will
be included in the party of big
leaguers. lie Gros Bebe," as the
French sporting sheets call him, is
the only player whose name has be-
come widely known here. His title
to fame, however, is due rather to his
money making ability than his knack
of smashing out home runs
Ruth draws a larger salary than

lic," was a headline which appeared
in weekly sports publica ton a short
time ago. There has been consider
able interest in the local base ball

Then came McNeely's second field

charged with an error on this occa
sion. Young looped a fly TO short
left-center and McNeeIy was slow in
starting TO run in for catch. He at
last got under way. only to stop short
of the falling ball and let it drop at
his feet for a -haser. 1t seemed
so certain TO Nehf that McNeely
could get the sphere that the Giant
pitcher made no effort to leave third

hurt the Nationals cause in their part

game bid to deadlock the game once
more. Mule Shirley battad for John

shortfield. Jackson camped under it
but let the sphere dribble through his
hands. and Shirley pulled up at the
midway sack
McNeelys best was a fly to South

Kelly was shifted to second and
Frisch to third. Harrison, though,
socked a, single to the middle field
that counted Shirley, and Rice fol-
lowed with a crash to center. The
hit was long enough to send Harris
to third and when Southworth fum-
bled the ball momentarily, Sam tried
TO take second. But the fielder
scooped up the ball and made a fine
heave to Kelly that had the runner
out by yards

though was fast and accurate, and
Ruel got the ball in plenty of time
to give Wilson d, stiff retiring punch
in the neck.
There were fireworks in the Ma

locked the game. Judge opened the
frame with a strikeout, taking the
third strike, but Bluege got a hit
when his drive toward Jackson was
too hot for that worthy to handle.

home with the tying run and make

Jim Mutrie bossed the Nets and he

broke the tie in the twelfth.
Actually, the game swung around
the hitting of the pitchers. Nehf who

opening. 4 hit by Johnson would
have won for Washington in the
seventh and the ninth.

is Bill Terry, who closed the National
