A bill has been introduced in the
Legislature which provides a penalty
for the violation. of an agreement to
pool tobacco, and also provides that
when suit for an injunction is filed
to prevent the sale of pooled tobac-
co, bond need not be given. Under
the present law, if a man sells to-
bacco which has been pooled there is
no penalty except a suit at law
against him. Under the proposed
amendment, a penalty attaches for
violation Of the contract to pool.
The measure is said to be sure Of
passage.
