Cigarette and Tobacco News:FDA on the verge of getting congressional approval to regulate tobacco Read Complete Article: Ventura County (CA) Star, 2009-06-08 Author: Michael Collins
Summary: Congresswoman Lois Capps and other public health advocates have a hard time understanding why it has taken so long to convince the federal government that tobacco should be regulated as a drug.
"It is a drug," said Capps, a registered nurse. "It's very addictive. It's so deadly."
It has taken years, but the Food and Drug Administration finally appears on the verge of getting Congress' approval to regulate cigarettes and other tobacco products.
The Senate is expected to vote as early as this week . . .
Rep Elton Gallegly, a conservative Republican from Simi Valley, supports FDA regulation of tobacco and voted for the bill when it passed the House in April.
"I don't really believe I should legislate whether people use tobacco or they don't use tobacco," Gallegly said. "But I do think we need to have oversight on the products that are going out so that people know what they are getting into."
Both of California senators -- Democrats Dianne Feinstein and Barbara Boxer -- support FDA regulation and have signed on as cosponsors of the legislation.
Capps, a Santa Barbara Democrat who last year tangled with a dozen magazines over glossy advertising for a new cigarette marketed to young women, credits anti-smoking groups with raising awareness about the dangers of smoking and for helping build public support for government regulation of tobacco products.

Tobacco History: Cigarettes and Literature | The Social History of Smoking
George Latimer Apperson
Chapter 1:
Another tradition gives the old Pied Bull at Islington, long since demolished, as the scene of the momentous event. It is said in its earlier days to have been a country house of Sir Walter's, and according to legend it was in his dining-room in this house that he had his first pipe. Hone, in the first volume of the "Every Day Book" tells how he and some friends visited this Pied Bull, then in a very decayed condition, and smoked their pipes in the dining-room in memory of Sir Walter. From the recently published biography of William Hone by Mr. F.W. Hackwood, we learn that the jovial party consisted of William Hone, George Cruikshank, Joseph Goodyear, and David Sage, who jointly signed a humorous memorandum of their proceedings on the occasion, from which it appears that "each of us smoked a pipe, that is to say, each of us one or more pipes, or less than one pipe, and the undersigned George Cruikshank having smoked pipes innumerable or more or less," and that "several pots of porter, in aid of the said smoking," were consumed, followed by bowls of negus made from "port wine @ 3s. 6d. per bottle (duty knocked off lately)" and other ingredients. Speeches were made and toasts proposed, and altogether the four, who desired to "have the gratification of saying hereafter that we had smoked a pipe in the same room that the man who first introduced tobacco smoked in himself," seem to have thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

Chapter 2:
A curious scene took place at Oxford in 1605 when King James visited the University. Two subjects were debated by learned dons before his Majesty, and one of them, at his own suggestion, was, "Whether the frequent use of tobacco is good for healthy men?" Among those who spoke were Doctors Ailworth, Gwyn, Gifford and Cheynell. The discussion, needless to say, being conducted in the presence of the author of the "Counterblaste to Tobacco," was not favourable to the herb. The King summed up in a speech which hopelessly begged the question while it contained plenty of strong denunciation. After his Majesty had spoken, one learned doctor, Cheynell, who is described by the recorder, Isaac Wake, the Public Orator of the University, as second to none of the doctors, had the courage to rise and, with a pipe held forth in his hand, to speak both wittily and eloquently in favour of tobacco from the medicinal point of view, praising it to the skies, says Wake, as of virtue beyond all other remedial agents.
His wit pleased both the King and the whole assembly, whom it moved to laughter; but when he had finished, his Majesty made a lengthy rejoinder in which he said some curious things. He objected to the medicinal use of tobacco, and quite agreed with previous speakers that such a use must have arisen among Barbarians and Indians, who he went on to say had as much knowledge of medicine as they had of civilized customs. If, he argued, there were men whose bodies were benefited by tobacco-smoke, this did not so much redound to the credit of tobacco, as it did reflect upon the depraved condition of such men, that their bodies should have sunk to the level of those of Barbarians so as to be affected by remedies such as were effective on the bodies of Barbarians and Indians! His Majesty kindly suggested that doctors who believed in tobacco as a remedial agent should take themselves and their medicine of pollution off to join the Indians.
