OBACCO PRODUCTS AND THE LOWER PRICE MOY[MEN Why Retail Prices Are Not Affecte by the Decline in Southern Lev Tobacco-Other Facts That t1i Public and the Press Should Kno, A great deal has recently been sai in the public press criticizing cigi manufacturers for retaining the present standard of plices on ciga in the face of the reported slump i prices for Burley and kindred typ of Southern tobaccos, and taking i task the tobacco trade in gencral f< its failure to fall in line with oth industries and reduce the prices < all tobacco products in harmony wit the general dowlwai price movi mient nlow going onl throughout tl coutrty. The real genesis of this 'ndoubtet ly well-intended but entiirely unjust lied criticism was the extensive pul lieity given to the recent comedow of ) rices for leaf tobacco in the Sol thern tobacco market, coupled wit the fact that the putlic does niot see to know, in the first place, that ti tobaccos of Kentuocky, Tennessee, Vi ginia and the Carolinas are not tI types of tobacco used for cigars, an in the second place, that no type < leaf tobacco can begin to he work( by the manufacturer until 'rom ot to two yeas I i nthe case of cigar le. and from two to three years (in tl case of cigarettes and other tobac roduels ) after it has passei out ,he grower's hands. If Kentueky tobacco were selling only a cent a pound, it wutid have n< the slightest influence upon Shall grown Connecticut cigar wrappel which are now selling at five dollal a pound, or upon any of the cigar Iev types, such as Hlavana, Sumatra, Jav Georgia, Florida New\ York Stat pennsylvan ia, Wisconsin an4d Ohil for the tobaccos of Kentucky an ne ighboring States are not and cal 1ot be used for 'igar purposes. Mreover, evel ill the case of ciga1 ettes and plug and otheri man ufactui ed tobaccos, which are, in t ruth, mad of Kentucky, Tennessee, Marylan, Virginia and Carolina leaf, the expe< tations for reduced prfces, because ( the lower cost of leaf tobacco, a. similarly founded oil public misinfoi Ilation. The fact is, as everyone i th trade knows, that the crops < tohcl '11now heinog marketed in the: States will not and calnot be avai abhle for manu1110 facturing into cigarettt and tolbccs until 1922 or 1923. An this is nIt merely becaluse mlanulf'ar urIers choose to carry larg' reserv stocks of tobacco for their own pr teetiol, ilt because the nature of ic:1 Mjmico requires that it, he cured anl aged for a period ranging from onl ho thre' years before it is fit fr n1n11111ufactuiig pur poses.
