such competition Is impractical and
detrimental to the publics interest"
Reduction of bus fares from ten
cents, suggested by Mayor Shank,
was termed impossible at the pres.
ent time by Bowman.

The Tobacco Industry
and Taxes

The aggregate tax paid by the to-
bacco business is with one exception,
income tGres, the largest item Of inter-
nal revenue the federal government re-
ceiVes. Last (fscaD year it,amounted
to $309,014,050.
OF this enormous amount of money
the cigarette industry paid $1S2,715,-
F35 .93, or nearly two-thirds Of the total
tax paid by the entire tobacco business.
We believe you will appreciate that
when nearly fifty cents of every dollar
paid by you fer cigarettes goes to tho
government, you must receive in ciga-
rettes value in return for your money
that is rarely given in any commodity.
That the public appreciates this
great value is shown by the enormous
increase in the consumption Of ciga-
rettes.
