The book ""Free Tobacco Bill: Hearings Held During The Fifty-Eighth And Fifty-Ninth Congresses On Bills For The Relief Of Tobacco Growers (1907)"" is a collection of transcripts from hearings held by subcommittees of the Finance Committee of the United States Senate. The hearings were held during the 58th and 59th Congresses and focused on bills that aimed to provide relief to tobacco growers. The bills proposed to eliminate the tax on tobacco and to provide subsidies to tobacco growers who were struggling with low prices and competition from foreign tobacco. The transcripts provide a detailed account of the arguments for and against the bills, as well as the testimony of various stakeholders, including tobacco growers, manufacturers, and government officials. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of tobacco regulation and the politics of agricultural subsidies in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
