PAGE TWO Flue-Cured Growers WS Vote July 12th Assessment of 10 Cents Per Acre Will Be Decided Flue-cured tobacco growers realize that foreign trade must be main tained if a fair price is to be rea lized for tobacco above normal do mestic requirements. To what extent this will be main tained will be largely determined July 12, when flue-cured tobacco growers of the Carolinas decide whether they will vote upon them selves an annual assessment of ten cents per acre of tobacco acreage for the years 1947, 1948 and 1949. If two-thirds or more of the to bacco farmers vote in favor of the friendly Thought/ 1 ryH r Junerai n.°*ne Rules of life are but memo randums of the deeper signi ficances we feel. Our judg ment is more closely attuned to what we should not do, than any published restriction can state. A man feels things to be right or wrong that are not described upon the statute books or the court’s calendar. Conscience remains our safest guide. In a spirit of sympathetic helpfulness we tender our pro fessional services. ; 7.unetal 4jome PH 31 EPENTOWy ■ Now You Can Get A New, Better I AUTOMATIC WATER HEATER I ■ Made By I I Coleman I .y iSl»i Bi^Jß Any home can have the |!J m modem luxury of plenty of 18 1 hot water any time, at low || H cost, and with die fast effi- in ciency that made Coleman 3 >Ji famous.

C. assessment plan, the money will be collected on'the warehouse floors ac cording to the method, rules and regulations as determined by the board of directors of the Tobacco As sociates, Inc. When the money is collected, it will be paid to the treas urer of the association and used along with funds from other sources for the purpose of stimulating, de veloping and expanding export trade of flue-cured tobacco. Diflßculties have been experienced for some time in maintaining export outlets for flue-cured tobacco. Be cause of the situation in foreign countries and the need for a program to protect producers; the farm or ganizations, warehousemen, tobacco leaf exporters, bankers, merchants, fertilizer manufacturers and dealers, as well as other farm and business leaders in flue-cured tobacco produc ing states took the responsibility of organizing the Tobacco Associates, Inc. The organization was financed the first year by tobacco farmers and allied interest making voluntary con tributions. Since it is to the public interest that the farmers engaged in growing flue-cured tobacco may have an op portunity and privilege to get jointly in raising reasonable and* necessary funds to promote export trade of flue- ■ cured tobacco, authority for the ref erendum was approved by 1947 ses sion of North and South Carolind General Assemblies.
