CALL MEETING OF
"SPUD" GROWERS
Hope To Work Out Plan
For Securing Better
Prices in Future
Representative Lindsay Warren
lias/announced that in the early Fall
he would ? call a meeting of potato
growers in North Carolina and pos
sibly Eastern Virginia with a view of
working-out a comprehensive plan for
the future and the consideration of
such legislation that might be neces
sarv. Mr. Warren hat shown deep
interest in the problem of the potato
farmer and it is believed that a ctll
for a meeting coming from him will
bring together a large majority of the
growers in the two states.

FARMERS WANT
CROP CONTROL
ACT CONTINUED
Some form of Control Said
To Be Necessary for a
Sure Prosperity j'
i
D. W. Watkins, assistant chief of
the AAA cotton section, told visitors
attending farm and home week that
some form of production control is
essential to the permanent prosperity
of agriculture.
The AAA reduction programs are
emergency measures, he explained,
and probably will be revised a great
deal before a long-time program is ot
fered the American farmers.
But it is clearly evident, he said,
thar some form of nation-wide co
operation is necessary, for it has been
demonstrated time and again that
unorganized farmers have but little
show in the world of organization. ilL
which they Mw.
Surveys made in many sections of
the country have indicated that near
ly all the growers who are cooperating
with the AAA and who are receiving
benefit payments want the programs
continued.
There has been some agitation in
certain quarters, he said, for aban
doning the Bankhead act and tha
" Aaa pFograma, -fesrtll- ia lafgaly -Mm
work of non-cooperating growers and
interests which profit most when cot
Ion prices are low.
The cooperating grower! have earn
ed their payments, he raid, and it
would be unfair to them to deprive
them of theae payments by discon
tinuing the program. He also pointed
to the demoralization of markets that
would follow the increase in produc
lion should all restrictions be re
moved.
He said the talk about unfavorable
weather reducing the crop all that is
necessary is without foundation. As
? matter of fact, the carryover for
this year will be around 10,000,000
bales, only 3,000,000 bales short of
the highest carryover on record, he
said.
It will take another year or twd
of curtailed production to eliminate
the large surplus which has piled up
from previous years, he declared.

5-Year Average
Washington. ? The crop -reporting
board of the Dyparttr1*,nt?ol?Agi

hie to lack of rainfall.
The present outlook is for a crop
of 63,062,000 bushels. Last year's
yield was 63.062.000 bushels;
The five-year average of 1927-31
was 62,386,000 bushels, making this
year's prospective crop 676,000 bush-]

a fire joint broke, destroyed a 16 by
20 foot tobacco barn and contents on
the Staton farm, near here, yesterday
noon. The keeper had visited the
barn only five minutes before the fire
was discovered. Other barns nearby
caught, but hands on the farm were
called and they held the fire to the

the keeper was running the heat to
about 160 degrees.
Mr. Staton also lost a barn by fire
on the Reeves farm, near Hamilton,
the early part of last week.
Comparatively few barns have been
destroyed by fire in the county this
year, scattering reports showing that
less than eight barns were lost and
three of them were in the Hamilton

HOPE TO FINISH
SURVEYING OF
TOBACCO LAND
Allotment Cards To Be in
Hands of~Contiacting -
Farmers Next Week
Martin County's self-made survey
ors arc expected to complete their
task of surveying all tobacco land in
the county by the latter part of this
week, Supervisor T. B. Slade stating
yesterday that att ~ attorment cards
"will be in the hands of contract sign
ers by the time the markets open
with the possible exception of a few
where errors are discovered Non
compliance of contracts will probably
cause some few farmers to be with
out marketing cards on the 23rd, it
is understood.
Approximately 1,000 allotment cards
have-been delivered, leaving about 400
more for employees of the county
agent's office to deliver.
Contract signers are again warned
that thev should hold tight to their
allotment cards, for no arrangements
are made for replacements. When a
card is lost the farmer has lost one
fourth the value of his crop.

LOWER TOBACCO
TAX WOULD AID
FARMING AREAS
Tobacco Section Chief Says
Graduated Tax Would
Increase Demand
?A graduatcd tax on cigarettes thai
would permit the sale of five-cent
packs was suggested at farm and
home week at State College by J. B.
, llutsoii, chief of the AAA tobacco
'section.
| Such a tax would increase the sale
stimulate consumption as well as
bring more competition into the
'manufacturing end of the industry, he
said.
Greater consumption will enable the
growers Lu sell?more tobacco, he
pointed out, and greater competition
among manufacturers will tend to
.bring weed prices up.
| He suggested the present tax rate
of $3 a thousand on cigarettes to re
tail at $4.25 or more a thousand.
Into this class would be packages of
20 cigarettes selling for 12 1-2 cents
or more.
Next would be a tax of $2 a thou
sand on cigarettes to retail for be
tween $3 and $4.25 a thousand. This
would include packages of 20 cigar
ettes selling for 10 cents each.
The lowest bracket would be a tax
of $1.40 a thousand on cigarettes to
retail for less than $3 a thousand. In
this group would be packages of 15
cigarettes to sell for fire teilU.
Mi llutson said he was aware
that some people were afraid that
such a graduated tax would tend to
reduce the price of the better quality
weeds, but he said it was his opinion
that the increase (n consumption of
cheaper cigarettes would not mater
ially affect the sale of the better
grades. ? 7^?
The cheap cigarette, he said, will
draft many recruits from the smokers
who have been rolling their own from
various mixtures, many of which are
of the cheapest grade.

Mr. Andrew Clark, representing the
county agent's office, haa tagged more
