OPEN LETTER LEAF FARMERS Tobacco Growers of State Faced with Critical Situa tion, Schaub Says GOVERNMENT WILL AID (This letter is addressed to all flue-Cured tobacco growers in North Carolina, through the newspapers of the State, by Dean I. o. Schaub, director of the State College Extension Service.) "We are faced with one of the most critical situations ever to confront the tobacco growers of North Carolina. The problem is, not what to do about 1940, 1941, or other future years, but how can we market at a fair price the 600,000,000 pounds of the 1939 crop still in the pack houses. "The Federal government has offered to put from $25,000,000 to $40,000,000 into this year's crop to sustain prices if growers will agree to restrict their 1940 crop. They want this assurance to avoid a repetition of a situation which resulted in 1929 when the eld Farm Board pegged cotton prices, only to have a larger crop of cotton produced the next year, making it necessary to continue price-pegging. "To have the government step in and help financially to sustain prices of this year's crop seems to be the only solution to our cur rent problem. The Imperial To bacco Company has informed Secretary Wallace that its buyers cannot return to the market un der present war conditions. The remainder of the 1939 crop can not be sold at a fair price, nor can it be handled, unless provi sions are made to resume the normal purchases of the Imperial Company through the govern ment. "The domestic buying interests do not want the warehouses re opened until this problem is solved; they do not want to re sume buying of the 1939 crop un til growers have voted on reg ulated marketings for 1940. The Tobacco Association of the United States has made it clear that the government did not close the markets to force control in 1940. The buyers and warehousemen closed the markets in the best in terests of the farmers and others concerned. "There is no assurance that the war will cause tobacco prices to rise next year, or the next. We must think about this year's crop. "The question is, do growers want to restrict their 1940 crop and obtain the help of the gov ernment in holding up prices of this year's crop? It is a question which calls for the serious think ing of every business man, as well as every farmer in the State." * Pleasant Ridge At a business meeting of the church here Rev. Prank Peeler of Taylorsville was elected pastor of the church to succeed Rev. J. T. Murray of Winston-Salem, who resigned due to ill health. Other officers of the church elected were, B. W. Carter, superintendent of the Sunday school; E. A. Carter, church clerk; C. W. Luffman, church treasurer and Miss Irene Bauguess, secretary. All of the teachers of the Sunday school were reelected for another year. Mr. and Mrs. Bill Golden of Winston-Salem were visitors at the church services here Sunday. Mrs. Clyde Luffman honored her husband with a surprise birthday dinner at their home Saturday evening.
