Berlin, July 9—In a survey of cigarette smoking, the periodical Elxcelsior declared that Americans are the greatest short smokers in the world. The publication estimates that an average of 625 cigarettes a year are smoked by every American. This, of course, statistically includes non-cigarette smokers.
The German annual average is 599 cigarettes per capita; Belgium, 513; Italy, 284; France, 247; and Switzerland, 184.
