Passage of this proposal wouldJ In et- Lect: put the bootleggers out of busi#less by giving the wholesalers an opportuni'tyr to compete at the same prices. Further, with the absence ot bootleg- ging, and the consequent increase ih the sale of legitimate cilgarets, the state would actually gain revenues. - There Is truly no reason to delay pas- sage of this legislation. Only the under- world smugglers would lose, and they don"t pay tazes. LEOIN1AFtD, SCHWARTZ Presid'ent Wholesale Tobacco Distributors of N.Y
