Where Are The Smokes?

This piece may not add much to the growing
literature on the cigaret shortage but at least
it S going to be different. For it is rot going
to attempt to tell you what is causing the
dearth of smokes.
In fact, it is going to take issue with those
who have assured you that the responsibility
for this small caiber crisis in the lives of
millions belongs to government control Of the
tobacco crop, shortage of tobacco, scarcity of
manpower, the black market, boarding, in
temperate smoking of epidemic proportions.
This piece is going to take issue with those
explanations without offering any new ones
But it is going to cite some figures, from
sources deep in the heart of the tobacco indus.
try viii IN reveal that there were fewer cigarets
potentially available to civilians at the end of
1914 than at the same time in 1943 but which
account for support or condone the current
threat of cigaret extinction.
Cjgaret manufacturers have certain military
obligations. They have a quota to provide for
the Army and Navy, for Red Cross distribu-
ton to service personnel, and in much smalle.
amounts, for the British. These obligations are
taken care of first.
The manufacturers recently claimed that
they were up to date on their orders, and the
government did not deny the contention.
In 1914 the big companies turned out 70 per
cent of the previous years civilian production,
OF seven packs for every 1943 carton. These
are the companies that make the brands that
most people called for back in the days when
we could be choosy.
That isn't too bad. And when you add in the
manufacturers of the Tags that we have beer
smoking recently. the picture is potential,
even brighter For all American cigaret com
panies turned out 10 packs in 1914 for every
20 in 1913.
The military quota is generous And if thu
full quota had been in the hands of the ulti
mate consumer last year, there would hav
been SO cigarets a day for every man ant

WASHINGTON, Dec. %. - (P) -
In 1914 the U 1ited States Govern
ment collected more, spent more,
and borrowed more money than
in any previous year of its his
tory.
Uncle Sam established new
world records which may stand
up a long time.
However the cef;cit-the amount
by which spending exceeded in
come-did not set a record, and
that's considered good news. 1t
was still huge-52 billion dollars
but in 1943 it was 50 IL billion.
An unofficial analysis of the dali

calendar year 1914:
Net receipts, mostly taxes. will
be nearly As billion dollars. Last

Nation Sets New Mark
In Financial Dealings

pre-war 1889, they were about 5
billion.
Total expenditures, not counting
several billions spent by govern
ment corporations, will hit 81 bill
lion dollars. Last year they were SO
billion. In 1899. Less than 10 bill
lion.
If you subtract the net receipts
from the total expenditures, you
arrive at the aforementioned def
cit of 81 billion.
Of the 81 billion expenditures,
war spending amounted to about
80 billion Adding l IL billion
dollars spent IN the war by the
Reconstruction Finance Corpora
ton the grand total of 1914 war
costs is over 80 billion. The COM
parable figure for last year was
around IS billion.
To pay for the war, the Govern
ment increased its public debt by
a record-breaking 81 billion dol
lars. For the first time, three war
loans were held in one year.
The total debt. including obliga-
tons guaranteed by the &C 'ern-
ment, rose from ITO to 232 billion
dollars. The greatest previous in
crease in the debt in any one year
was SO billion last year.
Borrowing OF e. billion in 1914
was enough to take care of the
|52-billion deficit and, in addition,
raise the net Treasury balance by
10 billion. This balance was IL bill
lion a year ago. It's about % bill
lion now.
BY pure coincidence, Govern
ment spending this year was the
same as estimated consumer
spending-97 billion dollars.

"Peace on the EARTH" where warfare never
ceases,
With men and nations evermOre at strife?
How has the world ignored the heavenly
voices
In the mad turmoil of this earthly life?
"N1y peace leave thee" ah! here lies the
secret;
mot as the world gives, give 1 unto thee
And, though that world be filled with strife
and tumult,
Safe hidden in His peace our lives may be.
