This opinion has been expressed by .-agricultural leaders in several sections of the state during the past few days. In discussing the tobacco acreage control program which was ap proved for the next three years by tobacco farmers of this and other weed-producing states last summer, former Governor J. M. Broughton, who is connected with several to bacco groups, said recently that, in his opinion "Congress could not abrogate this three-year contract vhich it now has with the tobacco farmers " However, some agricultural lead er? and other attorneys are not so sure.

Lozon, of Burlington, Vt., wasn't as unlucky as he had first supposed when, af ter completing a phone call in a telephone booth in an airline office, he attempted to leave. The inside doorknob came off and fell to the floor. Lozon, a rather large man, found the business of stooping and groping for the knob in the booth a difficult one. At last he found it, fixed it in, place and emerged, flush ed and irritated, only to find that during his confinement, five men had held up the office, taking $1, 000 from the till and all the cash in the pockets of other prospective passengers. Lozon still had his $600 in his wallet. Hair brushes, tooth brushes and scrub brushes should not be turned on their backs to dry, as is the common practice.

Clothing specialists give you these hints to help get your nylons clean safely and with little work. Use lukewarm water and a mild soap, the same as you use for any washable, fine fabric. Rinse well without wringing or twisting and your fabric will last longer. Do not force-dry or hung colored fabrics directly on or above a radi ator. They may fade if you do. Direct sunlight may also fade such material. Properly finished nylon fabric is highly resistant to wrinkling and only requires touching. up with a warm iron. Do not use a hot iron. Ironing the wrong side when your garment is slightly damp helps to lake out wrinkles. You can use most cleaning agents on nylon. Because of the nature of some dyes, it is a good idea to try a bit on an inconspicuous part of the garment first. If there is any doubt, send your garment to a reliable dry cleaner.
