Great Britain
Back in 1939 an average British
family silent on tobacco about 25
per cent of what it spent on meat
and breath. Today. with food prices
kept fairly fixed by means of sub-
sidies, the figure is 125 pee' cent;
and it k reported that although
xnaay families find it difficult to
break even, because of rising com-
modity prices and frozen wages,
they will economize on anything
but cigarettes.
For eight hours a day, every
day except Sunday, silent orderly
queues shuffle along the pavements
of Britain's main streets. They are
waiting for cigarettes, and often
'waiting in vain on account of the
supply having run out.
Drop into a cheap cafe on the,
Euston Road and at a table in the
rear you are liable to see a man
working hard with cigarettezroll-
ing machine. His only "overhead"
is the wrapping -paper he uses. He
will sell those fags for about half
the legal price of factory -made cig-
arettes, or a third of the "private
tree- action" or black market price.
What he uses for the filling you
will discover when you see a wait-
ress come and dump an ashtray
fell of butts on his table.
The tobacco shortage has noth-
ing to do with individual poverty,
only with the poverty of the nation.
English cigarettes, priced at about
67 in our money for a pack
of 20 of the most common brands,
are the most expensive in the
world as far as any traveller knows.
Thar legal price is even higher
thee that of the Continental black
market. The cost is because of the
alt ,, t rlltination to save precious dol-
lar; going out of the country for
the purchase of Virginia tobacco,
ax.i taxatio now represents 95 per
cant of that cost.
,z is interesting to note, however,
that the shortage exists only in re-
latioll to an ever-expanding de-
mand. Sniokers, looking back to the
days when there were plenty of
cigarettes, forget that tobacco con-
sumption in 1938 was only 190
million pounds in weight. This year,
even with all the enforced cuts
and with so many departing dis-
appointed from the queues, it will,
still reach 205 million pounds.
The cause of 'this great• increase
xs i' :nand? The strain of the war
ycers, the long periods of anxious
but idle waiting, undoubtedly vast-
ily increased the amount of "nerve-
toothing" smoking. Also 'the con-
tinuing shortage of most consumer
goods has meant little else to spend
xrloney on, and smoking has con-
tinned even though goods have be-
come somewhat more plentiful and
Finally there has been a •great
Increase of smoking among women
of all ages and occupations, as well
as young people of both sexes.
Women in Britain now smoke more
than in any other country, or so
it is estimated. Many men blame
then: for the cigarette shortage and
st London newspaper recently start-.
ed a hot controversy by a blunt
demand that they cut their smok-
ing down—or out altogether. But
so far the ladies "just aren't having
any."
Rationing has been ruled out as
impracticable, Grumbling has be-
come general because those whose
work is not measured by the clock
find time to go from shop to shop,
getting more than their share. How
aerious the problem has become
ie illustrated by the fact that many
factories— to quell the unrest
caused by the vision of "spivs"
stuffing their pockets with fags
while legitimate workers are chain-
ed to their machines—now employ
"cigarette; searchers" whose paid
job it is to go out in search Of
eigarettes for their mates,
The United States
Ever since, as Mr. Dooley used to
phrase it, "the first Wednesday after
the first Tuesday after the first
Monday in November" approxi-
mately ten thousand commentators,
real and alleged and including this
one, have been moaning to them-
seleves "Oh, why didn't I have the
verve to go out on the limb and pre-
dict a Truman victory?"
However, we didn't; and If you're
looking for alibis you'll have to seek
somewhere else—and not seek very
iinr either, The wails of aQine of
those public poll experts and na-
tional survey conductors wpuld be
pitiful indeed to hear—if only they
hadn't been so doggone sure of
themselves.
So let's put it down as just "one
of those things". In politics, as in
Brooklyn Dodgers baseball circles,
anything can happen and generally
does. Personally I'm only making
two comments. The first --that it
seems rather humorous that the
only two widely -heard predictions
of a Democratic victory were those
of President Truman and—of all
things --'-the Russian radio.
And the second is that of all the
attempted explanations for what
happened I've read or listened to,
that of a young lad I know probably
Inters closest to hitting the mark.

UN Picks Poster of the Year
Prize-winner of an international United Nations contest, this poster
will soon be on display all' over the world. The work of Armando
Paez Torres of Argentina, it features a child's blocks spelling out
the Latin word"for peace. The colors of .member nations are'
depleted as growing flowers. Using both photography and drawing,
it won Torres $1500.
At a certain Press Club late one
evening—or maybe it was .early one
morning—a bunch of sports cob-
blers were whooping it up over
their malted milks and (Adv.) cokes
when the question arose as to what,
of all the hundreds of different
sorts of sporting events, is the rare -
est and most unique. Whereupon
somebody promptly answered "A
swimming meet at which no records
are broken."
* *
This crack hardly raised a snick-
er as it is well known to one and
all that swimming records are a
dime a dozen and are busted with
great ease and regularity. How-
ever, during the past summer—on
August 30th. to be precise—an
English swimmer by the name of
Thomas Blower did accomplish
something- really unusual in the
water -crawling dodge. In case it
escaped your attention—as it did
ours until the other day—we shall
kindly tell you about it.
* * *
What the Stanley Cup is to hock-
ey—what the world series is to the
baseballists—what the Rose Bowl
means to American footballers—
swimming the English channeirrep-
resents to the long-distance crawl
and kick fraternity. First man to
turn the trick was Captain Matthew
Webb, of immortal memory, away
back in 1875. And in the almost
three-quarters of a century which
has since elapsed the feat has
been duplicated only some 26 times
—which isn't se very often when
you consider how manyliave jump-
ed and had to be pulled out,
* *
As a matter of fact it would be
more nearly correct to say that
but four have actually "duplicated"
Captain Webb's feat, as the•revered
Matthew web-footed it froni Eng-
land to France, instead of t'other
way around, and that is the "hard
way" when it comes to Channel
swimming, just as a pair of threes
is the "hard way" of making a six
in another sport we needn't identi-
fy
* * *
' It took Webb 21 hours and 45
minutes to make the journey an'd it
Is estimated that he swath close to
40 miles on his way from Dover
Sands to Sandgatte Beach although
the air mileage is only around
twenty-one. Strong tides that tug
and haul a swimmer off course make
up the difference. Indeed when
liienry Sullivan—third swimmer and
Arm: American to do it—made the
eChannel swim be was in the water
27 hours and 23 minutes and it is
estimated that he was obliged tq
cover practically 45 miles. (Person-
ally, we'd prefer a rowboat or even
a raft.)
* * *
Tiraboschi, an Italian, was the
first to discover the easier route,
astonishing everybody by cutting
something silke six hours—that's
right, .hours, not minutes—off the
best previous mark. And when Ger-

1948
trude Ederle, in 19A26, reached the
English sands ust 14 and a half
hours after setting out, it was plain
to be seen that anybody wishing to
make real speed should start from
France.
Miss Ederle had the advantage of
highly expert advice and was guid-
ed on a course which allowed her to
take advantage of no less than three
favorable tides. At the time of her
swim those who knew the Chamiel
best said that it' was a very close
thing for muscular Gertrude and
that if she had taken as little as 10
minutes longer on the trip, the
chances are that she would never
have finished.
So now, at long' last, we gd baC1
to Thomas Blower, the lad we start-
ed off to talk about. He's no strang-
er to Channel swimming. Eleven
years ago he successfully negotiated
the France to England course in 13
hours and 29 minutes. Then, last
year, he became the first human to.
swim the 25 miles of chilly and tur-
bulent sea water separating Ireland
and Scotland.
* *
*
That would be enough and even
more than enough for most of us;
but there's no satisfying some folks.
So this August the Nottingham.
giant set off to follow -in the wake
of Matthew Webb. Nor did large
Thomas fail, making it from Eng-
land to France in 15 hours, 25 min-
utes, the fastest ever known for a
swim in that direction.
'What is more, when Blower set
out it was his intention to remain
on tI1e shores of La Belle France
only long enough to get himself re-
greased and—possibly—have his ig-
nition ehecked. Then he was going
to dive in aain and make the return
trip to England,
:k * 5 ,
Mr. Blower was dissuaded from
trying this latter on the advice of
experts who told him he was liable
'to run into choppy seas and ex-
tremely.. heavy. going,.. However
Thomas says that he'll be back
again next year as he wants to be
the first ever to swim the Channel
both. ways,. non-stop„ And.. we
heartily hope he makes it. He must
,be quite a swimmer and back in
the days of George Young, Ernst
Vierkoetter and the rest of them,
would have one both fame and for-
tune. As it is now, it seems as if
he'd have to be satisfied with the
fame alone—and not touch of :it
at th..t. "Born twenty years too
late" might be the way to sum up
the fate of Thomas dower, swim-
mer extraordinary.
