Board were def'mie !y ahandou

The tobacco executive cam
niittee, however, announced it
would redouble its elforts to
have two functioning co-oper

Would Have Confidence
"Mr. Page would have the
confidence of every growr.
merchant and banker, and, if
1 we are able to get him, we will
fee! we have tile right man to
head up the movement," Geo-
R- R :ss personal representa
tive of Governor O. Max Gard
ner on the executive committer
said.
Mr. Ross said it was the con
sensus of opinion among the
members of the executive com
mittee that, owing to the late
ness of the season coupled with
the fact that the farm beard
had asked a decision from the
tobacco growers of the State
by October 15, it would be un
wise to attempt to launch the
associations this year.
I .oaks Kncouraging
"It looks very encouraging
, for a dffin'te movement," Mr.
Ross said, declaring thai mer
• chants, farmers and bankers in
the trbacco-growing counties
i of (he State feel that there is
no reason why the associations
could not begin functioning
next year.
Growers in Surry and Stokes
counties telegraphed the com
mittee today urging the start
ing "operations this yVar, but
the committeemen decided it
would be best to forego oper
ations this year and concen
trate all efforts toward getting
away to a running start next
year.

State's outstanding speakers,
addressed an audi nee in Dan
bury Tuesday at noon that filled
the court house auditorium full
0 overflowing, a part of the
audience not being able to find
seats.
Mr. Hoey expressed confi
dence that the citizenship of
North Carolina would register
its approval of Democratic ad
ministration in the state le;-
tile past :J0 years.
-di. Loey said in part: "Some
complaints ha\e been made

too much. An analysis of thit,

is *;;.3.20 per year. The average

One enthusiastic orator declar

1 1-sixth of the amount charged.
"The next charge is that
county taxes are too high- In
nearly all the counties the taxes
are for bond issues voted bv
the people and for other public
improvements. However, a
sufficient answer to this charge
is that there are 100 counties
in the state—32 of these are
governed by the Republicans

Democratic than in the Repub
