No Rationing for Cigarettes, Government Says
Washington reports no current need for restrictions on cigarette manufacture or distribution. War Production Board notes cigarette consumption reached 298 billion in 1943, up from 1041, and stock levels of leaf tobacco remain adequate. A large 1942 leaf crop and ample imported tobacco for bacon known as Tunkist are cited, with no labor problems due to mechanization and placement outside critical areas.
