He said both "favorable and unfavorable dev elopments affecting the tobacco in dustry have occurred. On the favorable side he listed ex tension of the Reciprocal Trade Ag reements Act; review of N foreign economic policies by a Presidential commission; use of foreign aid funds for tobacco exports; and the increase in flue-cured exports, which increa sed from 3SJ million1 pounds in 1953 to 496 million pounds last year. " Hutson pointed out that economic recovery and the balance of pay ment situation in most foreign countries which use substantial am ounts of US. tobacco have now reached "the most favorable position of the postwar period." Such condi tions, he added "usually permit con sumers more freedom in choosing the goods' they wish to purchase. Therefore, these countries can be expected to continue buying large quantities of our Cue-cured tobac co."" "- '..'.':";''- "' Total foreign uslngs of U. S. flue cured leaf in 1953, Hutson said, am ounted to some 440 million pounds, about the 'same as in other recent years.- In addition about 70 million pounds was shipped overseas In the form , of manufactured cigarettes. Thus, over 500 million pounds about 40 per cent of the crop was used overseas during 1953. Unfavorable developments, Hut son said, included ad increase in foreign production of flue-cured and Other cigarette-type tobaccos; a drop in domestic consumption of cigar ettes for the first time since the early 30s, and an- increase in con sumption of Oriental-type leaf in Western Europe. . Foreign flue-cured production last year, he said, reached 959 million pounds 2 1-2 times the 1935-39 average and 23 per cent higher than the 1947-51 average. To meet this overseas competition, he said, it is more important than ever that Am erican growers produce the highest quality leaf possible. "The quality of leaf is being' im proved in many foreign countries,'' he added, and "concerted efforts are also being made to lower their costs of production." Total cigarette output by U.S. man ufacturers declined three per cent last year from 436 billion in 1952 to . 424 billion in 1953. One possible cause of this decline, Hutson said. was "the negative nature of cigarette advertising" which stressed that one brand was "less harmful than anoth er." Some changes in advertising policies have been made and more can be expected, he said. On the subject of lung cancer, Hutson quoted cancer research au thorities to show that "no persua sive and definitive conclusion re specting the cause of this disease or the relation of smoking thereto, has been established." "Although much has been written concerning the incidence of lung cancer, there is still a dearth of au thoritive findings on the subject," he declared. Dr. Joseph A. Weybrew, tobacco biochemist with the N. C. Agricul tural Experiment Station, reported to the group on his recent European tour to study technological prob lems in connection with the foreign manufacture of American flue-cur ed tobacco. Weybrew said the two most com mon complaints expressed were non- KfcY MAJ PSSMSB NrfMSjBBSMSVSa(k rf.f e Ik! 1 .'ar.t uniformity of sorting and its high price. He said the tobacco produc tion research groups in Germany and Italy concede that they cannot produce flue-cured tobacco equal to American in flavor and aroma. They believe the secret of XT. S. superiority lies In the flavorable natural resources of soil and climate, and they plan to study these factors with the aim of Improving their own tobaccos. ' ' j.'',- "The challenge is therefore before us," Weybrew said, "to make cer tain that the margin of superiority of our tobacco with respect to these and other qualities is widened, if we are to maintain our position in the world market" - Lewis N.
