Cigaret Prices Are
Given Gentle Boost
I Cigaret prices in . Omaha were
given a gentle boost Tuesday, All
j of the more popular brands came
in for the increase which occurred
simultaneously in every tobacco
shop in the city.
Henceforth those sweetly-scented
I ninrr tuh which sold for IS cents
will cost 20 cents and the dream
stick which could be purchased for
10 cent a package now costs 15. Just
a gentle little boost, only 25 to 33
per cent.
Tis said the boost in Omaha was
delayed because tobacco venders
feared to juggle cigaret prices, for,
be it known, there is a law in Ne
braska which says "thou shalt not
sell cigarets." But the timidity was
overcome finally and suddenly and
without notice when July 10 rolled
around, lo and behold, the "coffin
nails" had advanced. .
Oh, well, .the tobacco barons need
the money.
