DUNNAGAN Raleigh, May 11th — “The North Carolina Weekly News” a tabloid newspaper with State-wide circulation, will make its first appearance in an entirely new field in North Carolina the latter part of this month, it is announced by Carroll Wilson, young and dy namic publisher of the Roa noke Rapids Herald, itself a tabloid home newspaper. Mr. Wilson announced here to day that he had recently made a tour of the State and made arran gements for branch offices in Asheville, Greensboro, Charlotte and Wilmington, and that he will have special representatives in North Wilkesboro, Winston-Salem, Fayetteville, Williamston and Roa noke Rapids, with probably addi tions in other sections of the State later. The main office will be Ral eigh, and the printing will be done in Roanoke Rapids. One of the features of the new paper will be a weekly column by U. S. Senator Robert Rice Rey nolds, of North Carolina, several years of whose eventful career has been spent in newspaper work, in addition to the several series of articles he has written on world tours he has made. Mr. Wilson states that Senator Reynolds will give a weekly letter on what he is doing in Washington, or a gos sipy sort of anything he cares to write. In addition to the Reynolds ar ticles, Mr. Wilson states that he has made arrangements for a weekly Washington letter, as well as one from Raleigh, and also from all over the State. He has already made plans for plenty of pictures, State, as well as national, in addi tion to general news coverage. Organization has also been perfect ed on a State-wide basis for circu lation and distribution of the pub lication, for which Mr. Wilson states he will have a guaranteed circulation of 50,000 the first week. Mr. Wilson has been owner of the Roanoke Rapids Herald for five years, coming to this State from Kentucky, where he was edi tor for six years of a state news paper. He is 33 years old, a gradu ate of Yale University (one of its youngest graduates) and has been active in civic and political affairs. He was president of the Roanoke Rapids Kiwanis club for two years, a director in the local Building and Loan Association and in other community activities. Two years' ago he turned the Roanoke Rapids Herald into a tab loid paper, patterned after the New York Daily News, a tabloid with the largest circulation of any such newspaper in America.

As Mr. Wilson views it, there will be no conflict with any other State newspaper. He can see no overlapping with the recently founded “The State’s Voice,” pub lished by Oscar J. Peterson, at Dunn, or with the new magazine publication which Carl Goerch is about to launch, as a sort of State ’iterary digest. His publication, he thinks, will occupy a field that is new in the State and will be all to itself in that field. Demand For Chilean Soda To Date More Than Doubles 1932 According to local fertilizer deal ers, deliveries of Chilean soda are exceeding all expectations. Trade reports indicate that deliveries to date are more than double the to tal for 1932. Ports had ample stocks the first of the year, but these stocks have been so reduced that several cargoes of soda are now on their way from Chile to take care of May and June require ments. With some degree of inflation assured, the outlook is for rather materially higher cotton prices in the fall. Dealers generally, there fore, are looking for the heaviest soda side-dressing business in sev eral years.
