The Federal Trade Commis sion arrived at that conclusion today after an extensive investi gation. It reported its findings to .Chairman Burton K. Wheeler, D., Mont., of the Senate Inter state Commerce Committee who requested the Inquiry. Wheeler told the FTC he had received complaints from retail ers who were unable to get ciga rettes to supply their customers. He asked the FTC to see if the shortage was artificial, or if any laws were being violated in the distribution of cigarettes. No, the FTC said, the shortage Is "directly traceable" to the huge numbers of cigarettes go ing to the armed forces and to America's Allies. This big drain on supplies, it added, war "mag nified" by Increased smoking here at home due .to bigger in comes, to "overbuying" by peo ple afraid of getting caught short, and to Increased nervous tension.
