A delegation from the Tobacco Board
of Trade was in Annapolis Wednesday
to urge Governor Lowndes and the Board
of Public Works to~take action looking
to the restoration of State Tobacco Ware
house No 4 and the tobacco warehouse
known as "The Old Sugar House to the
uses for which they were originally pur-
chased by the state. The people interest
ed in the tobacco trade counted that it
costs the state more to furnish storage
for tobacco than the rent of the two
warehouses brings into the treasury. and
therefore, that it will be an act of
economy to restore the warehouses to
their original uses and cancel the leases
to other parties.
