Iowa lawmakers debate a sweeping tobacco tax bill that would tax all tobacco products from cigars to chewing tobacco. C. C. McCoy of the cigar revenue department estimates annual revenue near two million dollars, with rates rising by product price. Dealers oppose the bill, citing small taxes on cheap cigars. The bill also allows out of state manufacturers to use Iowa revenue stamps at the factory, reducing dealer duties. The Cigaret Revenue department would collect the tax if enacted, following past tobacco tax receipts and February gains in cigaret sales.
