I day off in three of Whiteville's
, six warehouses.
"Everything will be ready", res
ports M. S. Smith, sales supervisor
of the Whiteville Market,
and added, "The six big warer
houses of our city are now ready
to accommodate the flue-cured

co raisers. Its well known fea;
tures are' centered around the
six modern warehouses, outstand1
ing courtesy and service, and
r veteran tobacconists who 'pull'
- for the farmer.
MODERN WAREHOUSES
Six famous warehouses, man>
ned by a staff of competent
workers and experienced warehousemen

the golden weed. These ware
houses, modern in every respect,
cover acres of space and stand
' out in their architectual bigness.
: All six are well built and are
i in perfect condition. Well-lighted
' warehouses with leak-proof roofs
insure ample protection for the
' farmer's tobacco. Each warehouse

11-21. It is regarded by the U.S.
1 Army as the world's most formidable
bomber. The Ford Motor
Company, under government contract
to produce sub-assemblies
I and parts for five complete B-2ID
bombers a day, is erecting an

miles from here.
Henry Ford examined this huge
bomber when it visited Dearborn
recently. It weighs 56,000 pounds
! loaded and carries four tons of
bombs at a speed of 300 miles an
hour. The ship has a cruising
range of 3,000 miles.

] ' rangements afforded by the
Whiteville Market take care ol
the vast quantities of leaf tobacco
bought by these tobaccc
experts.
Teamed up with each set of
tobacco buyers are the nation's
top-notch auctioneers. Every
"chanter" who rattles off the
higher prices in the Whiteville
Market is a man of experience.
He. too, knows tobacco and is
well acquainted with the selling
game. Each one on the Whiteville
Market attempts to get the highest
possible price from every
buyer and is pleased to see the
fanner walk away with a smile
of satisfaction .written plainly
across his sun-tanned face.
Independent dealers and buyers
of experience play an important
role in the promotion of higher
prices on the Whiteville Market.
They purchase heavily in
all sales. All buyers on the market
are members of the Whiteville
Tobacco Boar d of Trade. Inc.,
which has full authority, under
the law of North Carolina, for
the proper operations of the affairs
in the proper selling of leaf
tobacco by auction. The Whiteville
Market features the most
satisfactory system of selling tobacco
on warehouse floors. In its
system of auction the buyer and
seller are brought together and
the sale made to the highest bidi
der. It is not compulsory on the
I part of the seller to accept the
bid and he has the right to turn
the tags?thus, canceling the sale.
Previous records show that few
tags have been turned on the
Whiteville Market and the majority
of the farmers are well pleased
with the results received there.
The Whiteville Tobacco Com
pany operated by Dibrell Brothera
has a modern redrying plant
with storage facilities to take
| care cf thousands of hogsheads
of tobacco. It employs a large
force and has been a great factor
in building up the Whiteville Market.
