It will probably have the same fate as other similar proposals. It is estimated by the state officials who are designated to estimate costs or receipts from proposed measures that it would bring in $4,»00,0<X). That is about right when compared to Wash ington’s cigarette tax Hut con siderably less than the six mil lion estimated by some of its sponsors. This cigarette tax proposal came through the legislature in u peculiar manner. The distribu tors of tobacco want a fair trade law and worked very hard for it. It passed the senate and was living held in the house where some members side tracked it until they could pass a cigarette tax to go with it.

Two gallons today do the work that required three in 1925. q Few industries can match thia record of keeping prices down and raising quality. It was made possible by two things: intense competition among oil companies and a steadily increasing efficiency of production, q In the last five years alone, Standard Oil Company of California has put more than $644,000,000 into facilities —and another $35,000,000 into technical service and research.
