Today’s Oakland All-American Six is remark
ably safe under any condition principally
because of its exceptionally fine system of
brakes and its sturdy Fisher body construction.
Only one other medium-priced automobile
uses the type of non-squeak, internal-expand
ing brakes which Oakland employs. And that
car does not enjoy the Oakland advantage
of Fisher bodies.

One-fourth of the tobacco crop fo
America is produced on the farms
of North Carolina. North Carolina
toabcco factories manufacture more
toabcco products than any other sec
tion in the world.
In 1927 there were raised on the to
bacco farms of this state 485,000,
000 pounds which represented to the
grower a cash value averaged at 23c
a pound, or $111,550,000. This ex
ceeded the next ranking crop, cotton,
and cottonseed, by over $13,000,000.

Carolina manufacturers have develop
ed a market of no mean importance
for their products in foreign c u i
tries, n ul in the international tobac
co world this .Slate occupies an out
standing position.
From an economic standpoint t'.
tobacco industry of worthy of >p.v
i .e iiion. It ivorisents an even bal
ance btween commerce and industry
in that the farmer has already at
hand an unfailing market for his
product, thus obviating a long haul to
market and having consequently sav
ing in the cost of distribution, while
the North Carolina manufacturer has
his materials close at hand.
The leaf tobacco is sold by the
farmer to the manufacturer or deal
er through some 44 markets, in which
148 warehouses are operated. The
grower hauls the leaf to one of these
markets, over the splendid system of
North Carolina highways, and deliv
ers it at the warehouse where it is
weighed and tagged. The manufac
turers and dealers bid, on a compe
titive basis, upon each pile of tobac
co and the grower is paid for the
same by the warehouse cashier. Type
or grade and demand are the controll
ing factors in the price paid for the
leaf.
Tobacco Industries
ror me year oi me cooacct
industries produced $413,271,615
worth of finished product, involvins
in the process the employment 01
about 16,000 wage earners in the 2(
fatcories in the State. The increas<
for the 2 year period amounted t<
over $80,000,000 in cigars and cigar
ettes.
The major tobacco product of Nortl
Carolina is cigarettes. Available sta
tistics indicate that there is one to
bacco center in North Carolina which
makes more cigarettes than anj
other city in the world. The growth
of this phase of the industry has beer
little sort of phenomenal.
Smoking and chewing tobaccos
come next in the volume of produc
tion. There are several plants ir
which snuff is made. These classes
of tobacco products show a decrease
in production in the 1927 census,
Some cigars are also manufacturec
in the State. The principal tobaccc
manufacturing centers in North Caro
lina are located at Winston-Salem
Durham and Reidsville.
Viewing the industry from a na
tional angle it represents quite a fac
tor in the internal revenue receipt
of the United States Government.
During th elast fiscal year the Gov
ernment collected in North Carolina
$225,315,303.53, which represents
more than five per cent of the entir«:
nation’s internal revenue from all
sources. More than $6,000,000 per
annum, is custom charges, are paid
by the tobacco industry on goods and
commodities shipped into North Caro
lina from foreign countries.
Census Figures on the Industry
in 1927
Nearly a thousand wage earners
were added to the 1925 figures in the
cigarette branch of the industry, with
an increase of wages paid them of
over one million dollars, while about
thirteen million dollars more was
paid out for material and power, and
one hundred sixty million dollars
more was added in value by manufac
turer in 1927.

reporting, amount of wages paid and
value adde by manufacture. It also
showed a decrease of 25 per cent in
wage earners, 20 per cent expendi
tures for material and .'10 per cent
less in value of products produced.
The division of cigars and cigarettes
showed a per centage of consistent
increase, with 25 per cent more es
tablishments reporting and the same
percentage of increase in total value
of products, 12 per cent more was
paid for material, 10 per cent for
wages and there were 7 per cent more
wage earners employed. The analy
sis as to effectiveness of manufacture
and management of the latter in pro
fitable production is shown by the
value 'added by manufacture, being
100 per cent more in 1927 than the
total value added in 1925. Inaddition
t othe large number of wage earners,
and wages paid them, the cigar and
cigarette industry also employed ov
