CITIZENS OP MEDFORD This statement was made with tho deliberate purpose and intent of deceiving you. . . . The land whereon the new high school would bebuilt on the Holly street site is now owned by the Medford school district. Options are Iso held on all necessary adjoining property.

LUCKY jf Guaranteed by Facts About Taxes on Cigarettes TO the general public, we believe it will be surprising to learn that nearly half of what they pay for ciga rettes goes to the government for taxes. The internal revenue stamp on a package of twenty Lucky Strike ciga rettes costs you six cents. On a 75c tin of one hundred the revenue stamp coats you thirty cents. So nearly one-half of what you pay for cigarettes is spent by you for taxes. This is certainly the heaviest tax on an article of daily and universal con sumption. The Tobacco Industry and Taxes The aggregate tax paid by the to baccobusiness is with one exception, income taxes, the largest item of inter nal revenue the federal government re-1 ceives. Last (fiscal) year it amounted to $309,014,050.84. Of this enormous amount of money the cigarette industry paid $182,716, 735.93, or nearly two-thirds of the total tax paid by the entire tobacco business. We believe you will appreciate that when nearly fifty cents of every dollar paid by you for cigarettes goes to the government, 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. Our reasons for this . tax free of fer We know this offer induces men to try Lucky Strikes it "Wins More Friends." We know that a large percentage of those who get acquainted with Lucky StnKes adopt mem. This isn't philanthropy nor propa gandajust good business, as you 11 agree. The offer fs limited. We cannot af ford to keep it up. We make it generous, to attract at tention. Super-quality Only by immense volume can we produce such an aristocratic cigarette as Lucky Strike at such a democratic price. Its quality is supreme because it has that costly extra process, toastlnir. which improves the flavor and adds to the taste of even the finest tobaccos that are used In Lucky Strikes.
