Elizabeth City, June 19.?Federal
Judge i, M. Meekins late today an.
nounced the appointment of M. L. Cor
ey of New York City, James H. Pou,
of Raleigh, and Hallett S. Ward, ot
Washington, N. C., as receivers for the
Trl-State Tobacco Growers Coopera '
tive Association.
Counsel for the Association and for
the Federal Intermediate Credit Bank
of Baltimore, a co-defendant in the
suit, gave notice that an anpeal would
be filed in the circuit court of appeals
for this district.
Both Sides Satisfied. I
Attorneys for both sides expressed
themselves as entirely satisfied with
the personnel of the receivership,
.xe receivership order cites as rea
for the receivership that, from
tl-i ,_..ts presented, it appeared to the
cou. iat the dlrecors and officers
of tl. Association have so managed
its ai._..j that it is either insolvent
or in imrilneht danger of insolvency.
It, the order, further sets out that
the organization's directors, "high
salaried oflcials," and other agents and
employees entered into contracts with
themselves or with firms in which they
were financially Interested for redry
?ing much tobacco, and made large
profits; that such acts were approved
by the directors; that certain of the
directors and officers bought ware
house properties at exhorbitant prices
that salaries were paid in excess of
the value of the services rendered,1
and sometimes for unnecesary services
in disregard of the rights of the mem- .
hers.
As a result of the actions of the
board of directors, the order declares,'
the Association is being liquidated by'
' a Joint committee of three directors
and two representatives (< large cre
ditors. f
The Association, "has failed ot its
purpose, and such purpose has been
rendered Impossible," due to the fact
that the management has lost the
-confidence of the membership, it is
asserted. As a further result of the
way the affairs of the Association
have been handled, the members have.
sustained heavy losses, and the As. I
sociation's assets have fallen tar be
low an amount sufficient to pay a -fair
market value for the tobacco deliver-'
ed by the members.
Bond Required
The court did not fix the amount
of compensation to be received by
the receivers. Judge Meeklns stating I
that he would have to consider that
further. The receivers were directed i
to give bond of $250,000 each..
M. L. Corey makes It his business
to act as financial and business ad-|
vlser to Co-operative marketing as
sociations, and was recently appoint,
ed to that capacity by the directors
-of the organization, at the suggestion
of the Baltimore Credit Bank; the
Association's largest creditor. The!
other two receivers pre widely known, j
Mr. Pou Is credited with being one
of the outstanding lawyers In North
Carolina, and Mr. Ward, who former
ly represented the first North Caro
lina district In Congress, is a prom
inent eastern North Carolina lawyer
and business man.
