Shortly after the outbreak of the war. he was placed In command of the Fifth Infantry division and later of the 11th army corps. Hla temporary rank of general was made permanent just before his brilliant attack In Verdun in October 1916, which resulted In the recapture from the Germans of Fort Douamont.

Of this enormous amount of money the cigarette industry paid 1182,716, 736.93, or nearly two-thirds of the total tax paid by the entire tobacco business. We believe you will appreciate that wben nearly fifty cents of every dollar paid by you for cigarettes goes to the fovernment, you must receive in ciga rettes a value in return for your money that is rarely given in any commodity. That the public appreciates this great value is shown by the enormous Increase in the consumption of ciga rettes.
