U.S. Army Posts Haft
Fag Sales In Enaland
, LONDON, C4)Sale" of cigarets
has been discontinued at all U. S.
army post exchanges in England
with the exception of those at air
force combat stations.
A critical shortage for use of
combat forces on the continent
caused the shutdown on sales, the

about 50 cents for a package of 20.
Hospital patients, replacements
and combat personnel in rest areas
still will be able to smoke their
favorite brands from the states.
PARIS. Soldiers and officeis
in Paris and many other rear areas
were told Monday they could get
no cigaretes, although the black
market has them at $4 per pack.
lomDit troops at the front re
cently were on short supply, but
now they have plenty.
A large amount of armv cis-arms
has been diverted, by one means
or another, into the black market.
Vendors peddled American cigarets
at si. oo a pack two weeks ago to
war-weaitny Parisians. Now since
they have boosted the price to $4,
they still are getting more offers
than they can fill.
Officers in the Paris and rear
areas were put on reduced cigaret
rations last week and enlisted men
got none. The scarcity here is
linked to supply and transport
problems connected with the of
fensive. They expected troops in
the rear area to get cigarets next
week. '

1 427 gallons per capita, per year. The daily life of the average
American is just about 14 times as mechanized as the average Euro
pean's. E venturing peacetime, it takes more than a million Amer
icans working full time in the oil industry to keep the machine! of
the other 129 million fueled and lubricated.
2 There are 8,267 individual oil companies in the U. S. For their
work of finding, drilling, processing and transporting petroleum prod
ucts to you they average about 810thi of a cent profit per gallon.
mm $7,269,199 looks like a lottif money, but it was divided among
a lot of people-31,375. So net profits aversged Just $231.69 per stockholder-owner.
'
4 S39,304-That's why, in some industries today, you have to pool
the money of t lot of people under legal agreements known as cor
porations. Very few individuals could finance the "tools" of heavy
industry.

Union does ($230,000 31,375 Stockholders" $7,33 pe owner), wi
have enough capital to keep going until we find oil.
O Competition. No nation In the world has had as many oil com
panies (8,267) competing for the business. No nation has had less
governmental control ef the Industry. As a result, the cost of "reg
ular" gasoline to you (exclusive of taxes) dropped from 29.7c per
gallon In 1920 to 13c in 1939. And the quality climbed from 52 oc
tane to 78.
