C., under Act of March Srd, 1878. NO TIME FOR INDIFFERENCE Since only minor opposition to the tobacco control program has devel oped m this section of ^ the flue cured area, today's referendum has not generated interest desired and advocates of the proposal who have been working with , Congressional delegates are sounding a solemn warning that the program faces a crucial test. To overcome opposi tion in districts which want all re strictions gemoved on growing the golden weed, it is vital to the very life-blood of this community that every land owner vote and sees that his tenants do likewise. Certainly, this is no time for in difference on an issue which is more important than a partisan election in which Democrats and Republicans square off against each other. Our farmers, who were pioneers in the production of tobacco and have de veloped it almost into an art, owe it to themselves and their Community to protect their coveted leadership. Continuation of the control program will afford this protection, t So, if you are eligible to vote and haven't yet done so, hustle to the polling place and cast your ballot in favor of control. Stop by and get your neighbor. He may be a back-slider who needs a bit of per suasion and prodding. Polls are open til 9 o'clock. BRIGHT LIGHTS NO LURE Tucked away in one corner of Sun day papers was the story of i young man and woman who, accom panied by her father, walked 1( miles to the nearest justice of the peace, who lived on the highway, tc get married. There is nothing un usually surprising about the 16-mile hike, since there are many couples willing to walk that far, even furth er, if need be, in order to enter the sacred, ranks of connubial bliss. What strikes us as being unusual about Ibis story d-U?sto ^ advocating that many leaders are back to the farm movements, the newly-weds' turned around and went back to the hills from whence they came, to their mountain home acces sible only by foot-trails. It is re freshing and reassuring to learn that there are people for whom the bright lights and trimmings of city life hold no lure. Even though the world is in a state ot hurly-burly and OPA has "beert abolished, most of us would frown upon the shut-off existence selected by these folks. If long walks are to be associat ed-in any form or fashion with mar riage, it is suggested that divorce courts be placed at the end of foot paths 16 or more miles in length. Such a move might cause divorce minded couples to hesitate before severing their marital ties and might be one way to retard alarming increase in divorcee which have become so easy to obtain that marriage contracts are entered in to by many persons who have no idea of trying to make their mar riage permanent and lasting. ? PRICE CONTROL RECORDS TO BE KEPT FOR YEAR Manufacturers, wholesalers and re tailers and all other persons requir ed under {nice control regulation* to have kept records . must preserve Ihem until July 1, 1947, the OPA an nounced yesterday.
