Minnesota Cigarette Tax Raised by 12 Cents
The 1961 Minnesota Legislature enacted a 12 cent cigarette tax increase and a fair trade law requiring retailers to price cigarettes at least 8 percent above cost. Regular cartons would run about 2.66 for regular, 2.76 king size, and 2.78 filters, with some outlets seeing a 54 cent rise per carton. Cigar and pipe tobacco duties decrease, possibly lowering those prices. James W. Clark reports about a dozen complaints since a prior fair trade rule took effect.
