the price charged in March, 1912,
plus one-half cent excise tax per
package which was granted in
November, 1912.
simultaneously, the Detroit Re-
tail Druggists Association is in
vestigating rumors that cigarets
have been diverted from its 900
members to sources paying above
ceiling prices.

ton, Al Pisa, president of the as
ISOLATION, said.
