EXPORTING 25 PER CENT Tobacco growers have been ex f porting about 25 per cent of their crop, he said, but in order to con tinue to have a good foreign mar- : ket “we must find some way to buy goods and services from our foreign customers.” i "If we could find some way to buy SIOO worth of goods or services per capita from the approximately 40,000,000 people abroad who buy our tobacco we would more than balance our exports with imports . . . and will also have made a j » contribution in bull ling good will 1 9 and • fellowship in the world,” .he 1 said.

Attributed hr Central Pres* Association <• s Elm And Clinton Proposed For Route Officials of the Dunn Chamber of Commerce, at a meeting held this morning, agreed to submit to the State Highway Commission an alternate proposal for the re routing of Highway 301 around Dunn. Earlier this week, the State al- j lotted $1,300,000 for the purpose of building a new highway around Dunn, which would vitally affect business firms which have hundreds of thousands of dollars invested along the route. According to best information available, the new highway is scheduled to be built east of town. Plans call for 250-foot right-of-way which would allow room for a two lane highway iihmediately and room for two additional lanes in the future. WOULD BE ONE-WAY As a counter-proposal, the Cham ber of Commerce favors using both Clinton and Elm Avenues for the big north-south highway, with each of the streets to be made one-way streets. This, pointed out the officials, (Htu* Betihj Jletiml I would give good, clear one-way traffic for ’ the heavy north-south traffic through town and would still keep the traffic inside town. President Clarence MeLamb, who presided over the meeting, appoint ed a committee to confer next week with Dr. Henry Jordan, chair man of the State Highway Com mission, and other highway of ficials in Raleigh. Named to the committee were: Mayor Ralph E. Hanna, Bari McD. Wystbrook, I. R. Williams, and Manager Norman Suttles. ' Mr. MeLamb will also accompany the group to Raleigh.

Taft invaded Democratic Virginia for a meeting with the state’s GOP convention delegates, and prepared to deliver a major address from Charlottes ville tonight attacking administra tion foreign policy. Gen. Dwight D. Elsenhower lash ed out at the administration on the domestic front in a nationally broadcast speech from Denver last night, in which he declared that IKE HITS CORRUPTION “We have had corruption before, but never before has it reached such epidemic proportions.” Sen. Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn) retorted from Dallas that “It would come with more grace from Repub lican mouths when they ‘ denounce corruption In taxes, if they weren’t at the same time accusing one an- . other of stealing Texas,” mcmahon hits back. Another Democratic presidential i aspirant, Sen. Brien McMahon (D- Conn), said the Republicans can’t win in November because the voters known the GOP is “controlled by the economic stone-age men as well as by isolationists.” But the Inter-party sniping did not long take the candidates’ minds off the main business of the mo ment-winning the fight dlthin their own party for the presiden tial nomination.

Taft’s cam paign manager, scoffed at Eisen hower’s plans. He said In a state ment that “the last vestige of gen eral Eisenhower’s Olympian role of sitting back and waiting for the Republican presidential nomination : to come to him has now gone In to the scrap heap. 4. Sen. James H. Duff (R-Pa) one iof the general’s top-supporters, i said Eisenhower can win the pres idency if the OOP’s “never-win boys” don’t lead the party to the , same “disaster” as in the last five elections.
