BRIGHT The cotton section issued this season two classes of cotton certificates. The first class is the regular certificate and may be used by all producers on one farm. This certificate may be transferred through this office to some other cotton producer in case the original producer fails to produce cotton sufficient to exhaust the certificate. The certificate in the second class is blue and is issued foil all contracts that have a base of 1400 lbs. or less. This is the certificate for the two bale producer and is not transferable. This certificate is plainly marked at the top, "Not Transferable." Producers that fail to produce cotton sumcieni 10 exiiaust certificates in this class are ' advised to return all unused certificates to this office. 'Those that have a surplus of this type certificates will receive some credit for , the pounds delivered back to this , office. Several tobacco producers have requested tobacco sales cards. These cards will cost four cents . per pound and tobacco producers 1 are urged to purchase cards for the ' lower glades of tobacco. The to- ! bacco producer will profit by destroying the poor grades rattier 1 than placing them on the market. ] Judge Kerr Wins i Editorial Praise ] The following editorial in praise of Congressman John H. Kerr, who took part in the tobacco program which was broadcast from Kinston last week, was taken from the September 19th issue of the Kinston Morning Herald: KERR AND TOBACCO FARMERS The position and services of a Congressman are much more important and varied than the average person is apt to think. There was a time when the activities of Congress were so far removed from . lint tJTlG mSiSSGS U1 WlC pupxc iaiav j j regarded its movements with little , or no concern; passed them by as something intended for others far . away, and never informed them- J selves of the results of National Legislation. Now Congressional action touches the daily activities of j practically every person, in a sense prescribes his conduct, and, to a f degree at least, regulates his life. ' This has become increasingly true ' since the country began to move ' from under the anesthesia of the,1 World War. These nation-wide ' movements by Federal authority {' make the modern life more and1 more complex as the former stand-1j ards of living have developed into,' a new life in America with the J passing of states' rights into the1! absorption by United States Ad- j' ministration. And in the light of this great \ j development, whether one thinks the development is wise or unwise, it must be apparent even to the J casual observer that tne state ana * especially the Second District are ' conspicuously fortunate in having Judge John H. Kerr as a representative in Congress. Although it j is true feat in the more limited sense he represents the Second Congressional District, it is also quite as true that in the larger sense he represents the state, and more, for in comparison with his ' fellows he is easily one of the Nat- 1 ional figures in the House of Repre- ] (Continued on Page 8) 1 lmn ABER 27,1935 Subsci J.

LEAF PRICES GET NO HELP FROM CAPITAL GATHERING Washington, Sept. 29.?Farm administration offices, where hallelujahs from flue cured tobacco growers eohoed last year, today heard cries of dissatisfaction from the same source. A drop of from seven to ten cents a pound for tobacco aroused the ire of the growers but the farm administration says there is little it can do to boost prices. Last year, AAA officials contend, flue cured tobacco brought about eight cents above parity while this year the weed that goes to make cigarettes is selling at around parity. Undr the' Agricultural Adjustment Act, J. B. Hutson, the administration's tobacco cJiief, told a delegation of North Carolina dissent crs, it is the department's obligation to maintain prices at parity. Objections were heard against the determination of parity, which is based upon a ten-year average price of commodities bought by farmers. Carolina Delegation The North Carolina delegation which included Governor J. C 3. Ehringhaus and Senator" Josiah W. Bailey, suggested that parity was too low. One grower said the cost of operating tractors was figured in its computation, while only mules can be used in the harvesting of tobacco. The suggestion was made that the bases for figuring parity be regionalized: that is the average price of farm commodities within a certain region be used instead of (Continued on page 8) No Serious Damage From Auto Wreck No serious injuries resulted from the automobile wreck which occurred on Ridgeway street, at the corner where the E.
