FOR FRFK HAND TWIST
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON. May 12. Pleading
for an amendment to the tariff bill to
permit the producers of tobacco to
sell hand twist tobacco without pay
ment of a duty or six cents per pound,
Senator Paynter, of Kentucky, today
laid before the Senate a history of the
tobacco industry in this country.
What the tobacco grower de.
sires." set id Mr Pay titer, 'is the privi
lege of selling Ills tobacco in the nat
ural b af to th- consumers: tbat this
privilege niav be exercised by selling
it to tobacco dealers and they be per
mitted to sell it to the consumers
without the payment of tax "The
evidence conduces to show that the
tobacco growers business has not been
prosperous.
Mr. Paynter declared that the to-liai-cii
growers believe they are in the
"grasp of a conscienceless monopoly"

tobacco trust, lie averted, to ttie to

troubles in K.nluck and ex-
pressed the hope that the enactment;
of the proposed amendment would!
remove the causes which have pro.
voked these troubles.
W hen Senator I'aynb-r concluded,
Senator Culberson made brief com- !
ments on the recent curt decision

poration instituted by the department I
of justice. He said that four circuit
Judges of the I'liited States had ex
pressed the opinion that this "trust"
was a monopoly and existed in viola
tion to the laws of the 1'nlted Slates.
"I do not know what may be the
purpose of the present attorney-general
in respect to this suit" said Mr
Culberson, but he has made a speech
recently In New York in which great
doubt is thrown upon the course he
proposes to take with reference to the
enforcement of this anti-trust law.
