s'-~--J the We OVCs
Rumors Of some Impending change in
the local peanut situation have been
rife in the city for some time, and last
night 1t was said that the Gwaltney-
Bunkley Peanut company, who have, 1t
is said at Smithfield, some thirty or for
~ miles distant from Norfolk. on the
lanes river, one of the largest plants in
the country, would remove to Norfolk.
II seems that @ great proportion of the
FARMERS stock" used by the company
mas to be carried through Norfolk and
pack to 1t after cleaning, and the double
expense Of transportation thereby in
Cured, Is thought to be the company's
reason for the change Of base. It is i'm
portant news this, If true, for the COM
pany employs many hands. 1t Is said,
and dtsburses Il great deal of money
which 1t would seem proper should be
paid out in Norfolk, and would be a
welcome contribution to the wage total.
There Is q telephone to Smithfleld and
last night an effort was made to verify
the rumor referred to but no answer
could be had, the hour being, very late.
From information received by the Vir-

TO doubt that the change will be made
IN which case the company and the city
are to be congratulated
