soon as possible. "We'll have a
safer town if we have a clean
town," he declared.
Chief Grady Bell of Morehead
City made a particular plea to
home-owners and businessmen
whose property adjoins alleys: "Al
leys are a fine place to throw rub
bish of all sorts. Many of our
fires begin in trash boxes at the
rear of the stores. Because alleys
are seldom-traveled, the fire gets
a good start before anyone notices
it. We do our best and usually
can get them out before any real
danger results, but sometime it
may be too late. I'm all for this
clean-up business. We're interest
ed in preventing fires as well as
putting them out."
Chief Frank Warren of Newport
especially urged farmers to clean
up farm buildings. Newport is the
only fire department in the county
with a special arrangement for the
protection of rural residents.
"There are lots of places on a
farm where greasy rags, trash, or
rubbish can collect. Those places
are hot-beds for fire-breeding,"
Chief Warren declared. "Although
we are equipped to travel many
miles outside Newport, it takes
time until we can get there and
those minutes are precious. Every
farmer will be saving himself
money if he keeps his place clean
and does away with fire hazards."

Three Attend J
Tobacco Meeting
Robert Laughton, president of
the Carteret county Farm Bureau,
Floyd Garner, assistant instructor
in agriculture at Newport school,
and R. M. Williams, farm agent,
attended a tobacco meeting at Ral
eigh Tuesday.
The meeting was called by the
Farm Bureau and the Grange tq
disedss proposed tobacco referen
dum*. The tentative date for vot
ing on two issues is July 19, Wil
liams reported yesterday.
The farmers will be asked
whether they are in favor of con
tinuance of the quota program and
whether Tobacco Associates, inc.,
should be continued.
In the past tobacco farmers have
been 87 per cent in favor of quotas
because they realize that too much
tobacco sends down the price, com
mented Williams. The Tobacco
Associates was set up to handle
funds for the promotion of sale of
tobacco abroad. The farmer pay*
10 cents per acre to finance this
venture.
L. T. Weeks of the Tobacco Sta
bilization corp., reported on the
amount of tobacco now held by the
corporation. Owned by the farm
ers, this organization buys tobacc*
if the farmer does not want to sell
it on the iqarket, and makes the
farmer a loan lintil the leal can be
sold at a better price.
Both Laughton and Garner will
represent Carteret county in any
future meetings on the tobacco pro
gram which may be called by the
Farm Bureau and the Grange, Wil
liams said.
