Plan to Curb Trust Tax Proposal for Tobacco Excise
A New York plan urged by William Walker of the Khedivial Co to impose a scale of excise taxes on tobacco and cigarette production. The proposal recommends a 3 cent per pound tax on 10 million pounds and over, 2 cents on lower volumes, while preserving the current 6 cent base tax. The aim is to aid small manufacturers and create fair competition with larger firms.
