KENANSVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY, JULY 10, 1952 PRICE TEN CENTS Flue-cured : tobacco growers In Korth and South CaroUna face a double-banseled proposition -when they go to the polls Saturday, July 18. On that date, flue-cured grow ers from the Carolina ' will cat ballots either for or against con tinuance of: 4 - 1. A 10 cent per acre assess ment to support Tobacco Associat es. . - x 2. Tobacco Marketing Quotas. Here 1s some background for the two referendums: . . North and South CaroUna de pend heavily on the success of the xhie-cured tobacco program. . Two vital phases of that program are Marketing Quotas, .which guars o tee - stabilized . market prices -through a support program, and the export promotional work car ried on by Tobacco Associates I Since 1934 growers have eniovel the benefits of an acreage program and since 1939 they have operated ' successfully under Marketing Quo tas with acreage allotments, t Re peatedly tobacco growers have vot- ea overwneimtngiy to continue tin program, which has meant so much not only to growers but the entire economy of the two states. Tobacco Associates was formed In 1947 by growers and their allied interest to Drotect and develop foreign markets upon which -they deoend for the sale of some 40 per . cent of their tobacco each year. Ia July of that year, growers in the ( two Carolinas overwhelmingly ap i proved the present 10 cent per acre -' assessment for 1947-1049 and again ;: 4n 1949, they approved the assess ' loent for 1850, 1951, and 1952. The extent of the work done by . this export-promoting organization is evidenced by tne increase in ex ports since its formation six years Man. Exnorts of United States flue- rured tobacco have Increased from 359 million pounds In 1947 to 490 million pounds in ioi ana are , now about 30 per cent above pre war yean. Through the, work of the organisation, new markets have been developed and others expand- . cd until now' American tobacco I growers are no longer dependent i uDon anv one country for the sale 1 of their tobacco.
