Excerpt from Cigar Makers Official Journal, 1917, Vol. 41 The cigar industry, as gleaned from the internal revenue reports for November, 1916, appears to be favorable. There was no high pressure, no excessive demand for the holiday trade, as was reasonably to be expected from the abnormal trade condi tions prevailing in the manufacturing and mining centers of the country. In that te spect the report was somewhat of a dis appointment. The total increase was less than 2 per cent as compared with the same month of one year ago. It did not cover the whole country; some districts suffered even a decrease in production. The in crease was confined more or less to the districts producing the cheaper grade of cigars. An exception can be noticed in a few of the blue label districts, which are located in the centers making guns, shells, etc for the belligerents in the European war. The good wages earned by these workers has added to their purchasing pow er, thus benefiting the consumption of cigars. The production of cigars in all internal revenue districts, for which taxes have been paid in November, 1916, amounted to 701, as compared with in the Corresponding month of 1915, showing an increase of cigars. The production of small cigars, weighing less than three pounds per amounted to as compared with in November, 1915, showing a decrease of small cigars.
