By GARRET SMITH | ? | °| “Got a match?” ; | How many times a day is that ques- tlon asked in these United States? | How many more times ig the question | unnecessary because moat pockets are | tobacco users In the country, we would %, | guess that the answer to that question | Would run into the hundreds of mil- Hons, For if it weren't for the smokers In x | | these days of electric lights how many matches would be used? A pretty ® | small proportion of the number of these “sticks of blazes” produced in Abolish to | shot to pleces. But the match business ts only one % | of a dozen or more allied industries which derive large revenues directly or | indirectly from the tobacco trade and would suffer heavily tf national pro- | hibition of tobacco were to go Into 5 | effect as some of our reformera would have it. The annual sales of tobacco ; | products, based on retail prices, 1s es- * | timated at $1,937,000,000, Of the cost | of producing and selling this quantity | ; | of cigars, cigarettes and other forms | of the weed, some hundreds of million dollars are paid out for other things than the raw tobacco and labor of making It up, ; | $25,000,000 a Year for Boxes : | For example, the tobacco trade con- sumes each year 45,000,000 pounds of | Heortee, 50,000,000 pounds of sugar, | both used in flavoring tobacco, and 650,000 tons of coal. used is $25,000,000 a yegr, quite an manufacturers of the boxes, In making these boxes | pounds of nails are employed. Other | large items used {n making and pre- paring tobacco for sale are tin and lead foil, paper for bags and cigarette | | wrappers, cloth for tobacco bags, la- | bels, coupons, ete., involving the print- | Ing trade extensively. Then building contractors and manu- fucturers of machinery are largely in- terested. Investments tn plants and machinery employed {n manufactur- ing tobacco are estimated at $102,000,- Replacement, up-keep and Inter- est on the Investment make no small | sum annually, And let realty men note there are approximately 825,000 tobacco farms in the country, with a total estimated | valuation of $160,000,000, Of further In- terest to real estute men Is the Fact | that there are 700,000 retall establish- | ments selling tobacco, involving a total mate, besides the large amount of of* | flee space occupied by administrative | branches of the general business, | share of the pickings. The tobacco | bus’ness pays out annually $7,000,000 fh premiums in the United States. And there are the railroads who reap | revenue from 2,210,000 tons of tobacco | products every year, for the advertising business, here again it {ts impossible to form | any estimate of the enormous annual | outlay. The prohibition of tobacco would also 3 knock a good-sized hole in the receipts of the United States government. The Internal revenue receipts from tobacco for the fiscal year 1920 amount- ed to $295,800,355.44. Customs duties provided an additional $25,000,000 tn | round figures, making the total revenue | | return to the government $320,000,000. | Influence on Popular Sentiment It Is this interlocking of the tobacco bus ness with so many other Interests and the vast amount of financial lose that would be involved tn the abolition of tobacco that is one of the most se- rious aspects of the proposal to pro- hibit the sale of tobacco, a proposal, however, which has Httle support by tors of the country are correct in their estimate of that sentiment. In a poll of the editors made recently | by the Tobacco Merchants’ Association of the United States, through the Press Service Company of New York City, 95 per cent of the 7,847 editors who | replied expressed the opinion that the | people of their commun!ties were op- | posed to any law against tobacco. these editors represent some 80,000,000 readers the results form a pretty gen- eral test of national opinion. In thelr remarks accompanying thetr replies many of the editors expressed it as their opinion that the oppos'tion of their communities to the abolition of tobacco was based to some extent at least on the damage such a change | would do to the business interests of | the community. This was particularly true In the tobacco growing states and centers where there were large tobacco | plants. But when the extent of the business involved in the allied intere: f the tobacco trade ts considered, | briefly outlined, it is clear that there is hardly a section of the country that would sot be affecte’ directly or tu- % | kept well supplied with the useful | ® | little article?
