Names became well known in connection with enrichment of Alton men in the packaging of the plug tobacco variety and those names in the course of years achieved national fame, among them being tlic name of Druinmontl, Liggett, Meyers and a few others of lesser luster. In those days, cigaret smoking was regarded as something well-nigh disreputable and young men with nicotine-stained fingers resulting from handling lighted cigarcts were likely to have difficulty getting and holding jobs. In those days, laboratories were working long shifts to prove that the smoking of cigarcts was detrimental to physical and moral welfare. Today, the successors of those same laboratories vie with related one set exerting itself to prove the cigaret beneficial while the rival group is proving that a man of distinction owes his prominence to whisky drinking. So heavy has the increase developed in cigaret smoking it is forecast that the high price of tobacco in 1937-38 will stay high all through the current year, while other prices have been dropping.

Flue- cured tobacco for cigaret-making in 1948 brought 49 cents as compared with 41.2 cents the previous 1947 season. Burlcy tobacco almost equalled in last season the 48Vi cents it yielded the year before. The cause of that range of prices ore flue-cured and hurley tobaccos is that mostly both kinds of it goes into cigarcts. The number of cig- arcts made in 1948 was 388-billion, which was 18 billion more for the year 1937. Pipe-smokers have been gaining, but in 1948 used only 108 million pounds as compared with the prewar 195 million pounds.

Chewing tobacco shows the lowest consumption on record for many years, as it stood at 3,500,000 pounds below the amount used in 1947, with a total 1948 sale of a mere 95 million pounds. If Alton had continued with practically all her eggs in the one basket as she had 65 to 75 years ago she would be in a bad way right now, with the slump in the use of chewing tobacco. Threatening Gas Tax Hike The State of Illinois is considering making some radical upward revision of everything pertaining to motor vehicles, including licenses, gas taxes, and all else pertaining to use of highways by motor vehicles. A vigorous resistance to the plan is being prepared and a stern fight is promised in the interests of the already long suffering pockctbook of the public. The proposal to use the income from heavy tax increases in building a vast amount of state roads is being criticized as impractical, There' is enough money in the state treasury, it is pointed out, to build many miles of roads.

The reason why highway construction lus bogged down is chiefly the lack of available competent engineers. Private industry has absorbed so great a percentage of the competent engineers there are far too few left for the State of Illinois to plan any great highway building program. It is said that there will be plenty for the available engineers to do spending what money is on hand and by the time it is spent there may be more money to build roads, coming through existing channels. If the legislative members from the Madison- Bond district vote in favor of the tax increase they would do well to stipulate that their district shall be given Us just share of the proceeds of the tax, and no fooling. However, there is sure to be strong pressure exerted ar Springfield, by Madison County which has great interests in oil and oilier product's which serve in the use and the building of the roads.

If the heavily-increased tax is to li.ive an effect of cutting down the UK of the roads it would be welt to give that fact consideration. Motor cars, and etc already arc heavily taxed and should be given a breathing spell.

It had been widely aired that Gen. Von Lossow, military commander of Ba- varin, and Dr. Von Kahr, dictator of Bavaria, had aided the attempted revolution by doing nothing to quell it. However, the central government at Berlin had stood firm and it appeared that somebody had to be spanked. Ludendorff wasn't, expected to receive much punishment.

His trial, except for minor parts of it, was to be conducted behind closed doors, starting today. The Rev. Roy Gattis, pastor of Grace M. E. Church, drove his car to 102 East Broadway, where a group of church women were getting ready for a rummage sale.

Pressure on the Ice-bridge had been evidenced in the late afternoon by eYacking and slight movement at points within sight of spectators on the steamboat levee.

Then at 9 p. a heavy gorge opposite Watson's quarry gave way, and Ice began to move out in a grinding rush. Upstream from the gorge, a considerable head of water had built up. Great ice masses were raised high by the released torrent, and minor damage was done the Eagle Packet wharfboat, the ferry, Altonian, and some boat-houses as they were crowded up onto the sloping levee. At some points above the city, ice piled up to a height of 3 feet on sandbars and dikes that were high enough to offer obstruction.

A new, but. lighter, gorge of ice formed at the bridge piers after the first big rush subsided, and there were signs a heavy gorge was forming some miles below the city. Rivermen said the new gorges again would impound the rising river creating another situation hazardous to boats before more ice pgain moved out.

P. Leader Joe Martin has been tipped off that southern and northern Democrats have finally come to terms on civil rights.

leaders at the Republican round table. This is a table in the House restaurant where Republicans gather for lunch and which serves as a sort of G. O. P. command post.

Martin didn't reveal his sources, but southern congressmen have long been close to him, and Joe's inside Intelligence on Democratic goings-on has usually been devastatingly accurate. Terms of the all-important civil- rights agreement, Martin reported, are as follows: Both sides agreed to an anti-lynch bill, anti-poll tax bill, 60-cents-per-hour minimum wage, and modifications of the Taft-Hartley law. These are crucial and important comprises on the of conservative southerners, but they have served notice this is the furtherst they will go. They will not, for instance, accept the dynamite-laden fair employment practices bill, which will be quietly side-tracked in the house. But they will support the rest of President Truman's Fair Deal.

This backstage compromise, however, is nothing more than a quiet Yalta agreement among the leaders, Joe Martin pointed out. It can't, possibly be binding on all the rank-and-file Democrats, and many congressmen on both sides will vote the dictates of their own consciences. M. Picard, originator of the French Gratitude Train idea, was seated in a restaurant in Akron, eating breakfast. He had been hospitably and graciously entertained by various cities across the country, and he suggested that it was time he paid some of the bills himself.

Picard explained that he had exchanged some francs into dollars in New York, and pulled out a hundred dollar bill to prove it. Frank Douglas, French-speaking secretary of A. F. Whitney, president of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, had been loaned to Picard to help him across the U.S.A. He said: "We don't like visitors to pay for things in our country.

Besides, that $100 bill looks like it was counterfeit." Picard, however, insisted; finally was told he could pay for his breakfast. Subsequently, the waitress, tipped off in advance, brought Picard a check for ham and $25. M. Picard looked at the check, but did not wince. He did ask how much American' workmen made pei- week, then he took his check and his $100 bill to the cashier.

The cashier, also tipped off in advance, held the $100 bill up to the light and said: "I'm sorry but this bill is counterfeit. I'll have to call the police." What French Will Kemember M. Picard and some of the French Gratitude Train Committee sail for France today, after one of the most Inspiring trips across the U.S.A. ever experienced by any foreigners.

Inside of Ecuador Radio Panic When a furious mob in Quito, Ecuador, stormed and burned that city's largest newspaper, "El Comercio," It was unforseen back-firing of a plot to create trouble for president Galo Plaza, a graduate of thn University of Maryland and a great friend of the United Statei. Author of the "War of the Worlds" radio script was a Chilean with many aliases who worked In Ecuador under the name of Jorge Benavides.

He had staged the same "Men From Mars" program over a Santiago, Chile, radio station 16 months before causing vast alarm. The Chilean government branded him a Communist agitator and exiled him from the country. The owners of Radio Quito, which in turn is owned by the newspaper El Comercio, had no Idea that Benavides was staging this sure- panic program. In fact no one knew it outside of a little group of actors and immediate colleagues who were sworn to secrecy. One of the most Machlevellian stunts they pulled was to bring supposed cabinet ministers in the Galo Plaza administration to the microphone and give hesitant, confused statements about the advancing hordes from Mars, all of which was aimed to destroy confidence in the Galo Plaza administration.

By this lime Quito's- streets were with a frightened, mill- jing mass, some of them shouting with the government!" But as stations began an- that the invasion was imerely a radio drama, the crowd I turned its rage not against the government but against the newspaper El Comercio and -Radio Quito. Benavides Is now in jail awaiting the outcome of a federal investigation into the whole tragic incident. Artilleryman Truman President Truman's eyes sparkled reminiscently when an Oklahoma delegation led by representatives Toby Morris and Carl Albert Invited him to a premiere movie showing of the famous "Easter Pageant," held annually near Lawton, Okla. "That's close to your old post, Fort Sill, where you trained in the first World, War," reminded Congressman Morris. "Yes, I'd like to get back there and fire a few artillery pieces again," replied Truman.

"I haven't done any firing since I got off six or seven rounds at a training camp while I was in the Senate." Truman turned down the fnvita- tion, however, because of a previous speaking commitment on April 1, the date of the premiere. (Copyright. 1949, by Bell Syndicate. Inc.)
