Russian emigrants to the number
of 285 who have been housed and
fed sat the Atlantic hotel for near
ly year by the white Star line,
which -contracted to transport
them to the United States, but
which can not get them to that
country under the immigration
quota, declared a hunger strike
today, much to the delight of the
hotel, because the W'Tiite Star Line
gave them notice to leave.
Want Bill Paid.
The company offered to carry
the emigrants to South America
or to continue to cry to get 'them
work in New York, if they -would
pay their year’s board bill.
The emigrants, however, contend
that they were brought from their
homes under a promise to be land

A Scottish' preacher had con

wife. He would refer to “my”

“my” boy, “my” room.
His wife took him to task with
some asperity and pointed out
that the use of, the possessive was
derogatory to her and that he
GRIFFIN WOMAN IS
BESIEGED BY CALLS;
WANT AD IS CAUSE
Want ads are result getters.
And sometimes disturbers.
A prominent Griffin woman in*
sorted an ad yesterday for a
house to rent and said today she
was besieged with inquiries.
In an hour after the paper was
out they called until late at night
and were at the telephone early
this morning.
There were calls over the phone
all day an*d the good woman left
home to get a little rest.
And while she was gone the
cook had to^take her seat at the

One morning the preacher rose
early and began to dress. Appar

Facts
About
Taxes
on
Cigarettes
w E rail particular attention to
the statements made in the
advertisement adjoining tins
editorial column.
This advertisement, the purpose of
which is to win new friends for Lucky
Strike cigarettes, incidentally em
phasizes the matter of high taxes on
cigarettes.
To those who are intimate with such
matters there is, of course, no sur
prising statement made.
To the general public, though, we
believe it. will %ie surprising to learn
that nearly half of what they pay /<
'iyfrettea goes to the government for
’axes.
The internal revenue stamp cn r.
package of twenty Lucky Strike cig
arettes costs you six cents. On a tin
of one hundred the revenue ssamp !
costs you thirty cents. |
So nearly fifty cents out of every
dollar you spend for cigarettes i -1
spent by you for taxes.
This is certainly the heaviest tax
on an article of daily and universal
consumption.
The Tobacco Industry
and Taxes
The aggregate tax paid by the
tobacco business is with one exception.
income taxes,, the largest item of in
ternal revenue the federal govemmenl
receives. Last (fiscal) year it amounted
to $309,014,05034.
Of this enormous amount, of money
the cigarette industry' paid $182,715,-
735.93. or nearly two-thirds of the
business. total tax paid by the entire tobacco
The immediately important point
of the foregoing is the following: vYe
believe you will appreciate that, when
nearly fifty conte of every dollar paid
by you for cigarettes goes to the gov
ernment, you must receive in cigar
ettes a value in ret urn for your money
that is rarely given in any commodity.
That the public generally appreci
ates this gTeat value is shown by the
enormous increase in the consumption
of cigarettes. ............____
