The department says that in 1923, iiibaeco from the United States ac < minted for more than 90 per cent if the total United Kingdom to bacco Imports, whereas in the years usi preceding the war (1935-39) hey hud declined to about 74 per cent of total imports. Production in ' ouiitries of the British Empire had alien an upward trend. India was among, them. “It is particularly significant that purchases of flue-cured tobacco by live Commodity Credit Corporation (or British account during the war 'have made possible the continued of United States tobacco in Brit ish blends of cigarettes,” the depart ment says. “British smokers have become accustomed to smoking cig arettes made in part from ‘pur* Virginia' tobacco, and wartime ship ments have made possible a contin j.iticn of this consumer preference ; u' United States-grown flue-cured : qbacco.” Forty per cent of the flue-cured obacco procured in this country 1 normally is exported. But whether increased production, predicted for 1945, will help relieve (a general cigarette shortage remains 1 tj be seen. A plausible uniformity * THE COURIER-TIMES agreed upon explanation for the current shortage is yet to come, to bacconists in this greatest of all flue-cured states assert. However, individual farm acreage allotments for the 1945 crop will be the same as those last year, which totaled 1,095,000 acres. In addition, an amount equal to two per cent of the total acreage allotted to all farms in 1940 will be made available for increasing Individual farm acre ages found to be inequitable. Also, five per cent of the national flue cured quota will be made available in 1945 for establishing allotments for farms on which no flue-cured tobacco has been grown in the past five years. on 1944 quotas alone, about 1,080,- 000,000 pounds of flue-cured tobac co were produced. Current predictions are that ex ports generally may tend to decline after the next few years, although exports during the next two or three years may be as large as available supplies will permit. In addition to the Empire, China and Japan were important markets for United States flue-cured tobacco before the war, but exports to China and Japan were cut off completely during the war. inasmuch as production of • PERSONALS Mr. and Mrs. G.

This calculation of adjusted rates involves expert statistical knowledge and, therefore, rarely gets into pop ular reports of vital statistics. “In 1940. for instance, only 4 states had lower crude rates than North Carolina, whereas, 37 states had lower adjusted death rates That is, North Carolina ranks 38th. This simply means that we still flue-cured tobacco in the Far East has increased in recent years, these markets are not expected to be sig nificant. The same is true on the i European continent. Leggett's Dept. Store have little to crow about when It comes to mortality. Actually, Instead of having £he lowest true death rate “east of the Mississippi,” we are surpassed by 15 eastern states. (This adjusted rate is based on the deaths by age from 1 to 75 years and is ad justed to the age distribution of the United States population in 1940.) o—— Dumbarton Plan One Step Toward World Peace WASHINGTON, March. John Foster Dulles described the Dum barton Oaks Security Plan last night as no more than a first step toward organized world peace. The development of actually work ing machinery, the International lawyer and Republican adviser on world affairs said, is a matter for the years and the evolution of in ternational law. „ He backed the Dumbarton pro posals, however, as having value for the purpose of bringing the nations together in the fellowship from which that law could develop.

Each of us will say a prayer apart —for the safety of a loved one in battle —for thej return of a son, or brother, or hus band now in an enemy’s prison camp —for the healing of a wounded dear one. Yet together, we shall find our greatest faith—particularly those of us whom the war has already qWWZ/q bereft in recalling His resur rection, for whom this day is ' c 0 * reborn each year! 01 i*" cral Council of Churches Commis sion on a Just and Durable Peace and consultant to Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New York during last year’s presidential campaign, said in a speech prepared for a United Nations rally here: “In. the meantime*, conflicts of interests will still be settled pri marily by power. We can hope that the power will be potential power and not actually applied power. That depends above all on the wis dom, self-restraint, and the unity of the peoples and leaders of Great Britain, Soviet Russia and the Unit ed States.” International law, he said, does not now cover the serious disputes which have led to major wars, and there does not now exist enough association among the nations, nor sufficient trust and confidence, to set up any formal machinery for creating such law. o Miss Emmie Nelson, representa tive of the National 4-H Club Com mittee, will come to Raleigh on April 16 to discuss 4-H club awards with L.
