morning by one of his children. He'
was 87 years of age and had been

"Uncle John," as he was spoken

when he traveled the streets at dust

the advent of electricity he lost his

RENTON, COUNTY OF WAR
URGES CHANGE IN
TYING TOBACCO
U.- S. Tobacco Association
Urges Growers To Tie
Bundles Uniformly
SHOULD NOT BE CAPPED
. Seeking to get tobacco growers to
tie their tobacco more uniformily
and discontinue the practice of capping,
the Tobacco Association of the
United States is asking buyers for
the various companies to use their
influence to get the crop tied in the
proper manner so that it may be
more satisfactorily dried.
Typical of the letters which have
gone out from the Association to
uie Duyers is tne ionowmg;
"Dear Sir:
"There has been a committee appointed
by the Tobacco Association
of the United States, of which Mr.
A. B. Carrington, Jr., is chairman,
for the purpose of trying to induce
the farmers to tie their tobacco in
a more uniform manner than has
been the custom in the past.
"This committee is bringing the
matter before the boards of trade
of the various markets, and having
their board of trade to pass resolutions
trying to make this effective.
In addition to this they are going
to try to interest the warehousemen
at all of the markets and in turn get
the warehouse people to try to influence
the farmers to tie the tobacco
more uniformly.
"We are writing to ask that you
use your influence in every way that
you can to assist in this movement.
As you doubtless know you will find
one pile of tobacco wherein the bundles
contain about 8 leaves and then
another pile of tobacco of the same
grade in which the bundles will contain
40 or more leaves. When there
is such a difference in the size of
the bundles you can readily see that
it is almost impossible to dry the
tobaccos uniformly.
"The Association is asking that
the bundles contain from 16 to 20
leaves, depending upon the size of
the leaf, and in addition to this
they are also asking that the farmers
discontinue the practice of
capping the end of the bundles.
We feel that this capping makes It
more difficult to dry the tobacco
properly, as it cuts off the circulation
and we cannot force the air
through the head of the bundle as
readily as where it is not capped.
"We think it would be very helpful
if we could get the county agents
in the various counties to also assist
in the work of influencing the farmers
to tie their bundles in a uniform
size and to discontinue the
practice of capping.
"Whenever this matter comes up
before your board of trade, we will
ask that you do all you can to se:
cure passage of a resolution favorable
to this movement. In addition
to this we would like you to use
your influence as far as you can
with che warehouse people, end also
with the farmers. It will be greatly
to the company's interest if we can
get the tobaccos tied in the proper
manner."
68,000 Members
In Hospital Group
During the two years of its existence
68,000 members located in 71
different counties have joined the
Hospital Saving Association of
North Carolina, Chapel Hill, according
to a report of Felix A. Grisette,
Executive Director, received here
today by Mrs. Conrad Sturges, local
representative.
This Association, which is a nonprofit
organization controlled jointly
by the North Carolina Medical
Society and the North Carolina
wncnit.ni Association, was incor
porated and became active as a result
of more than two years study
by a committee of outstanding men
representing the hospitals, the medical
profession and the social minded
public. This research was not
limited to this country. Careful
study of existing plans in Prance
and England were made in order to
learn at first hand the best experiences
of others in the field of
group payment plans for hospital
service.
In March 1935, following issuance
of a charier of incorporation, the
following trustees, representing
jointly the medical profession, the
hospitals and the public, were elect

Banzet Replies
To Articles Of
J. B. Palmer
Replying to an article written
ast week by John B. Palmer in
vhich he accused the Board of
bounty Commissioners of increasng
the tax rate while "playing
Santa Claus to their henchmen and
:ertain attorneys with a lavish
land," Julius Banzet, county attorley,
this week explains fees which
lave been paid him and shows that
axpayers have been benefitted by
i reduced rate during the past several
years. His article follows:
Sditor, Warren Record:
There have appeared in your colimns
from time to time during the
ast few months letters from one
Fohn B. Palmer in which the Board
>f Commissioners for the County of
Warren was criticized in its official
icts, with emphasis laid to certain
:ees paid me as attorney to the
3oard. Mr. Palmer's letter-writing
penchant appears to have shifted
ecently from birth control, euthan>ia
for the aged and mental defectives,
religion, and the New Deal,
;o county government. While I have
lever read his several contributions
en these subjects, I hope that he
tvas better informed on them than
tie appears ta be on municipal affairs.
I have refrained from public
notice of these opprobious letters;
but in the most recent letter,
carried as political advertisement,
tie referred to a "favored group"
with 'snouts in the trough," presumably
including me in this metaphor
of the swill.
Personally, I do not perceive how
Mr. Palmer could imagine himself
entitled to the information which
he claims to have sought and obtained
with great difficulty- He Js
not a taxpayer of Warren County
and contributes nothing to its revenues
and therefore has nothing at
stake. The tax records of Warren
County do not carry his name for
the tax yenrs 1934, 1935, 1936 and
1937. For ;hese years he has paid
not one penny in taxes, yet ne
argues about valuations and rates,
foreclosures and fees. If any interested
taxpayer desires any in
luruuniuu nuuu uic umic ui uic
County Auiitor I feel sure that he
or she will be given same or access
to it and with full courtesy. However
idle Mr. Palmer's curiosity may
be, but for the information of any
taxpayer who may wish to expend
the time necessary to read this
statement to its conclusion, I set
forth the facts concerning all the
matters mentioned in the several
Palmer letters as they may refer to
me directly or inferentially, and for
the reason that I shall not write
you again I shall state facts fully
in each instance.
