Leaf Vote Is Slated In Warren Persons who partici pate in the production of flue-cured tobacco in Warren County will be asked to decide whether marketing quotas should be continued for the next three crop years in a referen dum to be scheduled af ter the U. S. Secretary of Agriculture announces the national quota. Thomas E. Watson, director of the Warren County Agricultural Stabilization and Con servation Service, stated Tuesday that his office will determine who is eligible to vote in the referendum based on information received when the tobacco growers file their acreage reports. The deadline for filing the report is set for Satur day, June 15, but is ex tended to the following Monday, June 17, due to the weekend closing of the ASCS office. Watson said that when the reports are filed, farmers will be asked to submit the names and addresses of all persons who share in the risks, costs and/or proceeds of the crop. Those persons will be considered eligible voters in the referendum in January 1986, as things now stand. One's eligibility to vote does not affect the eligibility of that person's spouse, Watson noted. The federal Agricul tural Adjustment Act requires the referen dum within 30 days after the national quota is an nounced. Questions about the tobacco referendum or certification should be referred to the ASCS of fice on South Main Street in Warrenton.
