The good news for the greatest cigarette smoking Nation- consuming around 120.000,000,000 “fags” anuually —was the pledge by the industry not to |increase the wholesale price this year beyond the actual increase in the cost of production brought about by the code or the action of the agricultural adjustment act There have been recurring rumors in recent months that cigarette manufac- turers, especlally the “big four” of the industry, were considering price rises to offset the reductions effected early in | the year. It was estimated that two suc- cessive price slashes of 85 and 50 cents a thousand, anncunced early this year on | popular brands of meet the competition of 10-cent packages, cost the manufac- | turers—American, Reynolds, Liggett & | Myers anud Lorlllard companies--an ag- | | Bregate loss of $100,000,000. | |” The companies pledged themselves, under the code, to give full weight to | probable increases in sales volume and | to refrain from profiteering. This was interpreted in Wall Street to mean that present prices will be little changed if any, during the rest of the calendar year. The golden era for the tobacco in- | | dustry, “extending over 15 years with | steadily rising profits for companies, was little affected by the | depression until last year. Cigarette con- | sumption, which has doubled since 1921, slumped in_1932, and the big four showed profits of around $104,000,000 ngnlnsl approximately $154,000,000 in 1931 Bmokers who were compelled by hard | times to watch their pennies cut down |on their consumption or turned to the 10-cent brands.
