CLOSE OF DURHAM
TOBACCO, MARKET.
STILL THOUSANDS OF POUNDS
Or GOLDEN WEED uNsoLD
BY THE4FARMERs.
SOME WILL HOLD CROP OVER
Alderman of City Prefers a Charge
that People OF Durham and Of the
State, are Victims Of Profiteers.

Durham.-It was definitely decided
by the Durham Tobacco Board of
Trade to close the market here on
March rs. This action was taken
when the warehousemen met with the
members OF the board.
There ares still thousands of pounds
of the golden weed held back by the
farmers, and they are urged by the to-
bacco men in this city to bring it in
as soon as possible. One warehouse
man stated that farmer told him he
was going to carry his tobacco over
until next fall, owing to the fact that
tobacco has not brought as much as
was expected by the growers. Farm
ers are advised against this, for it is
reported by tobacco experts that a
serious risk is run on account of the
quality of this years crop.
Alderman J. M. Lipscomb is on the
path to get in the limelight of the
public by a motion he made at the
last meeting of the board of aldermen
to promote a municipal association
for the purpose of acquainting the
people of Durham and North Carolina
with prices charged for the necessi-
ties of life. He charged that the PEG
pie of Durham are victims OF prof.
teers, and by advertising through the
the necessities of life
could be brought to level with other
cities.
Other members Of the board heart
ly favored Alderman Lipscomb's mo-
ton, and the motion was carried.

ments demanded, Baruch points
out, is not primarily the amount
of cash she must pay out.
A capital sum equal to the debt
America incurred in the war. at
B per cent interest over 42-years;
wou d just about equal the total
of the cash indemnity.
But by stripping Germany of
her shipping, by imposing a twelve
and one-half per cent tax against
the total of her exports, by re-
quiring that she deliver to France
large quantities of coal, and by
similar limitations on her indus
trial expansion, the difficulties of
making payment are multiplied
many fold.
"a capital sum of 83,58O,00O,-
600 gold marks" said Baruch,
turning through memoranda
brought him by his statisticians,
"if placed on interest at 5 per
cent for AZ years, would amount
to 226,000,000,000 marks, the
amount of the cash indemnity.
"That amounts, in round figures
to 21 billion dollars. Germany al
ready has paid about $3,50O,O00,-
600. That makes a total capital
investment of a little less than
$35,000,000,000-or approximate
ly the amount of bonds issued by
America for the war, including the
loans to the Allies"
is there any dependable basis
on which to estimate the amount
that will be produced by the
twelve and one-half per cent tax
on exports?" BaTuch was asked.
No dependable basis" he re-
piled. ''Of course, if her exports
returned to the pre-war normal,
or thereabouts, it would mean per-
haps a billion and a quarter or a
billion and a half marks annually.
"This tax, of course, affords a
tariff protection against goods ex-
ported from Germany. This be-
comes, however, a tax on the Am
erican consumer OF goods.
Germany collects it, but 1t goes
into the treasury of the Allies,
not in the treasury of the United
States, as would similar protec-
tive tariff imposed by US against
German manufacturers. This tax
will have the effect of increasing
prices and lessening exports.
"The wisdom of this action may
be open to criticism because of the
tendency it would have to lessen
the volume of German business
and to make the amount indeter-
minable.
incidentally it might be point
ed out that America stands in a
different position from any of her
associates in the war under this
export tariff provision. The tariff
must be paid by American on
German-made goods purchased and
the money goes to the Allies.
England or France, however, pur-
chasing the same goods, pays the
