? . ..."f .{-st**., ?
With more than four hundred thousand pounds of
tobacco on the warehouse floors and possibly two hund^
red thousand ftiore on vehicles on the streets Louisburg -
celebrated its tobacco market opening on Monday.
Long before sale time the town was full of people inter
ested- in seeing the opening sales begin. The ware
houses were filled by Friday night bfore.
The opening sale was at the
Union Warehouse and started
promptly at 9:30 o'clock. All
the buyers were present and
great interest was shown as the
buyers seemed anxious (or all
grades. The second fate was at
the Southslde with the Planters
not having a sale on Monday, but
opened the sales day on Tuesday.
The price range proved very
satisfactory running on up to
49 cents with the bulk bringing
from 40 to 46 .sent*.
The new sale system was wat
ched with much interest and was
generally liked. The main com
ment being that one to two hours
more sale time could be added
to sach day with much advantage
to the farmer, especially when
the market is crowded.
It reminded one of olden days
to see so many teams and wag
ons on the streets loaded with
tobacco, something that has not
been witnessed in Loulsburg In
over twenty wmrr. ~~
The big ruth for sales space
had not been abated yesterday
and It was a common comment
heard among growers that they
hcd paid off their debts and
would have a good balance after
completing theli tales.
Throughout the tour dayt
tales prices have held up to
about the tame level, which In
dicated the price celling had lit
tle Influence and many farmert
cnme out with average! of around
44 and 45 cents.
Along with these splendid, sales
came a good flow of trade to
Loulsbuig's many merchant!,
bringing very satltfactory condl
lions to both butlneit and Indi
vidual!.
Loulsburg li girding Ittelf for
an extra big season with unprec

PLANS MADE TO

Local Rationing- Board Asks
All to Sign and Cooper
ate in Club Hauling
Agreement ^
Members of the local Rationing
Board are delighted at the Co
jperative and helpful'. spirit the
Clubhauling plan adoped by the
Board at its meeting on Thursday
iilgh{ of last week. Is receiving
from almost the entire public.
The Board had been wrestling
ivith the question of how to
move the farm crops to the mar
ket .with as many cars and trucks
needing tires and gas with so
few and so little to supply the
need. The club plan was adopted
In the spirit of solving this prob
lem. The Board took the view
If it could get citizens in each
community to haul for 10 to 20
farmers it would be replacing
10 to 20 trucks or trailers with
one. By this means it is expected
lo get all the crops to-market i?'
limit for advantageous sale.
The Board felt that the people
wDtitd" Hpprectate its posttton ami
cooperate and it is gratifying to
Bee the extent to which this co
nperatlon is being extended. Of
course the Board expects all who
sign the agreements to live up
to them and it Is going to be as
liberal as possible with those who
agree to do the hauling. The
Board is not contemplating to
have to turn down anyone for;
gas or tires for not having his
crops hauled by another, nor to
call in and cancel any gas card
or take possession of any tires
granted for this purpose by any-'
one w fro I'pfH ?-'eg To ITVe u p to his;
contract to haul.
"The Board appreciates the tine
spirit in which the plan Is being
received and feels that It will
work to the benefit of all." said

London. Sept. 16 ? Russia be
lieves^xhe Allies must open a
second front this year and that
their failure to do so may have
serious consequences during and
after the war, a high foreign
source said tonight, while Pro
duction Minister Captain Oliver
Lyttleton hinted that an Allied
invasion of Europe Is imminent,
possibly a matter of weeks.
The foreign source said there
were clear signs that the failure
to open a second front* this year
may make the Soviets suspicious
of their Allies' sincerity. Russia
fears that unless the Allies in
vade the continent soon in
enough force to draw 30 to 40
German divisions off the eastern
front, the possibility of a future
Soviet offensive may be cut to a
dangerous minimum, this source
reported.
Lyttleton. addressing war

gathering forces of the greatest
alliance the world ever has seen
will give us the first evidences of
