This tobacco firm is already in the

this warning was given.
FALMOUTH--The board of eontrol
and county union of the American so
ciety of Equity met in joint session
and requested local buyers not to BUY
any more unpooled tobacco. 1t is
thought that this request was rather
a demand 1t resulted because severai
local unions in the county had passeu
resolutions against buying of this to-
bacco, as they feared it would result
in night ridings.
