THE CIGARETTE INDUSTRY

' ' > >
Cigarette smoking, thirty year* ago
wa? confined to a relatively few parsons
in tile <Unit4?d States. Piper,
cigars and chewing tobacco then wero
the popular methods of wooing Lady
Nicotine. Today, that situation has
changed to an extent which, -when:
analyzed, furnishes an inaight into
one of the country'* moat astounding
industrial development*.
Last year, according to official figures,
the United States consumed 97,000,000,000
cigarettes. This is an aver
age of. 843 cigarettes for every man,
woman and child in the country, and
Barron's Weekly analyzes the situlticn.
?~~? "iT!
Since 1021 cigarette consumption
and production has been steadily increasing
and during the last two
years production has gone up apj
proximately 8 per cent, per annum
over that of the preceding year. In
1925 production amounted to 82,000,000,000;
in 1026 <jt rose to 80,1*00,000,000,
and in 1027 it jumped to
07,000,000,000. This makes an annual
increase of materially more than |
7,000,000,000.
No specific information is available
(ak to the nation's total cigarette bill
for the calendar year 1027, but if figured
at an average price of three!
quarters of a cent per cigarette, the
result would be the enormous sum
of $728,911,260.15, or about $7 per
person. This is figuring at the cheap

*t possible r?{? and nukes no allowance
tof of the more
expensive variety. In ail probability,
the actual coat per cigarette would
be better estimated at close to seven
eights of a cent, which would bring
the country's bill up another $100,000,000
or close to $050,000,000.
Fully one third of the amount paid
by cigarette smokers was returned to
the National government In the form
of internal revenue taxes. This total
amounted to approximately $201,600,000,
the rate being $3 per thousand,,
on the small cigarettes generally
smoked, and $7.20 per thousand on
the large-sized cigarettes.
Thus, every ordinary package of
twenty, cigarettes carries an excise
tax of 6 cents, paid by the manufacturer
when he packs his product.
Tht. t?x i. colltcUd fn f0Vm of
tamps, the manufacturer being required
to buy the internal revenue
stamp and place it on every packet
that is to be sold withii the United
States.
In order to manufacture this gigantic
volume of cigarettes, 289,000,000
pounds of stemmed leaf- tobacco
were used during 1927. AppfOxiI
mutely three-fourths of this tobacco
wa? grown in the United States
while 70,000,000 pounds were impoited
mainly from Greece and
Turkey for the purpose of blends.
The cigarette industry in the Unit<
i States is the most highly concentrated
of all the tobacco industrir*.
i Hgures for the census of 1925, the
| i-.test figures available, show that
were but 143 factories manu!
imbuing cigarettes at that time,
wr.:ic the total number of tobacco
(factories in operation was 10,022.
M"'< .than half the cigarette fac- |
tor.t - enumerated were located in
New ^ k, twelve in Pennsylvania,
elev< r. in ( alifornia and six each in
N"* ( arolina and Virginia.
Ii addition- to the 97,000,000,000
cigarettes manufactured for do'menstic
consumption, American factories
produced some 7,000^600,000 cigarette*
for evport. More than half of
the-e, or approximately 4,000,000.000,
were sent to China, the most important
market for American cigarettes.
The next most important
market is British Malnya, thi-?
market taking 030,000,000 cigarettes.
The Philippine Islands and Panama
also are important, the former receiving
more than 500,000,000 American
cigarettes while the latter market
. consumed 400,000,000.
Pue to the heavy tourist traflifc in
j Europe, American cigarettes are beJ
mg sold in increasing quantities on,
j the other side <>f the Atlantic, not
only to tourists but also-to Europeans
who find American cigarettes
especially pleasing. Exports to
France in 1927 were 171 .OOu.ouO, increasing
fn.tr, 100,000,000 cigarettes,
exports to the L nited Kingdom more
than doubled, rising from 30.000,00 J
| 7-.000.00??; while Switzerla.-.J also
' more 'ha.'i doubled its- imports of.
I Ameinan cigarettes, these rising
j fiom :.TOO,000 to 7.700.OUO. The
most outstanding proportionate inn-ease
in imports was registered by
-oviet Russia which imported 2^2,000
cigarettes.
Indications for the current year are
that cigarette production for domestit
consumption will go beyond the
.1 o0,000,000,000 mark, while exports
are expected to run between 9,000,000,000
and 10,000,000,000 cigarettes.
Exports for the first five jyionths of
the present year as compared with
the same period of 1927, according to
the tobacco section of the DepartI
ment of Commerce, indicate that
China will increase her imports of
I American cigarettes by approximately
>.) per cent., ami other countries also
are tak'.ng more and larger ship{
mi!.t-. l*p to the end of May, 1928.
J China hat! imported 3.120,149,000
