It now looks like Louisburg will
have to build another filtration plant.
Tbe present one baa about served Its
purpose ? having filtered the water for
Louisburg for practically twenty
years. It 19 almost a-myracie to see
the high quality of water the present
management is giving us with a plant
as old as this.
TWESTY-FITE ADDITIONS
The revival services just closed at
the Baptist church were especially
well attended and resulted In much
good. There were twenty-live addi
tions to the church and a Life Ser
vice Band was organized with twen
ty five members. Dr. Hay E. York
did some fine preaching, holding
three services each day. T he spirit
of the meeting is best given in the
fact that a cash offering of 1300.04
?was made to Dr. York in a five min
ute intermission. Louisburg is glad
that Dr. York was in its midst and
there is no question but tha; the good
c-Jfects of his meeting will be long
lasting.

TOBACCO GROWERS

Declare Landlord Members
Obligated To Deliver Total

Hundredw of members of the To

tion, backing up the dec'<.i>n of their
directors have declared that the tobac
co of tenants on the farms of landlord
who are members of their association
shall not compete on the auction mar
ket with tobacco placed in the farm
ers' pool.
Officials of the local units of the
Tobacco Growers Cooeratlve Associ
ation In Alamance' County met on
June 2, at Burlington and adopted the
following resolution.
We farmers of Alamance County,
Members of the Tobacco Growers As
sociation (Cooperative), being assem
bled at Burlington, Alamance County,
for our regular monthly meetings do
wish to go on record as supporting
cxir association to the very fullest In
its efforts to enforce each and every
term of the contract signed by our
members. We have In mind at this
time especially, that part of the con
tract which holds each landlord mem
l>er for1 all the tobacco produced on
his land.
rurther, wp nigh to thank our D1- I
rectors and official* for so frankly J
amrtinfc their position In this matter,
nnd for all the other many great things
thpy have accomplished for ua.
And wo feel the Association h<*a
, acted wisely In not borrowing money
to make additional payments up to
this time and we realise that If our
[tobaoco ta sold In an orderly manner
we will have to tvait a reasonable
time for a full settlement.
Copj- to be sent to our Assoclatl n's
Secretary at Raleigh, North Carolina
Signed S. ?L. Dixon, County Chairman
The organized growers cf Caswell
County on the samt day at their epun
Ity meeting in Yanceyville registered
their protest against the practice of
1. ndlords who are members .. of th*
marketing association al owing tobac
co which is under contract to the as
sociation to be marketed by nonmem
ber growers. The Wake County grow
ers likewise decla.ed their ccmplete
independence from the auction sys
tem on June 4, at their monthly coun
ty meeting in Raleigh. Indications are
tuat the great majority of North Caro
l:na fanners will back this policy of
their association like the growers of
Virginia where the courts have re
o.uired its members to pay liquidated
damages on tobicco which was raised
by non-members.
A sweerlng victory was won by the
tobacco assocation, in Virginia this
?week when three cases came up for
trial before Judge W. R. Barks.ial" at
Halifax Court House. The Virginia
Jury put a stop to the habit which
some members have of hiding behind
the skirts of their wives when a mem
ber who raised tobacco on land be
longing to his wife who was a non
member was required to pay liqui
dated damages for three-fourths of
the tobacco that he raiseod as his
life's tenant, at the rate of 5c per
pound with couit cost and attorneys'
fees. In the opinion of tbe association
attorneys this will put an effectual
stop to many who endeavor to evade
the obligations of their contract by
growing cr selling tobft'-co In the
nume of their wives.
Two other defendants whOBe cases
came up this week in the Halifax
court agreed to all the terms of the
suit brought against them rather 'han
try their cases. This week's cases of
the tobacco cooperative were added
to a long list of legal victories for
the association in Virginia where 29
suits filed in the state have now been
settled with defendants upon terms of
the association. In Halifax County
alone, thirteen out of thirteen s*ults
have resulted favorably for thp co
ope-ative. In Pittsylvania County the
association has already won eight out
of nine of Its suits and in North Caro
lina a largp number of its suits
brought ogainst contract breatcra
bave been settled on the associat'on's
terms.
