TOBACCO rOOL MAKES
4 RAPID STRIDES


Growers Cooperative Association
during the last few weeks than was
ever hoped for by the most opt ms
tic of its organizers.
Local counsel has been Apo nted
for the community centers of the
districts; warehouses have been pur-
chased or leased In all towns Of any
size from Paducah on the Ohio to
Huntsville on the Cumberland; The
War Finance Corporal on has agreed
to loan the Association $500, 900;
grades have been established, and
preparations are beng made to re-
ceive tobacco.
Due to the fact that practically
none of the warehouses or factories
in the d strict are equipped with a
sufficient amount of tobacco hand
ling devices, the date for receiv ing
the members crops can not be set
at this time. r. e. Cooper, D.rec-
tor of Warehouses, has prom .sed,
however. that the receiving stat ons
4 will open as soon as poss BILE, prob
@bN shortly after tire New Year.
When the Office force which s
headed by S. S. Stitt, secretary, per-
fects the system by which the Asso-
Sation tobacco will be handled word
, jill be sent to the managers Of all
u the warehouses. Then the ware
house bookkeepers will be called in.
to Hopk nsville for instruction in
their duties. 1t is important to i'm
press the managers with the fact
tina: the book-keepers win work
under the supervision Of the man
office, Mr.. Sttt said.
The new headquarters of the As
ISOLATION were occupied this week
by the emit re force. Expenses will
be reduced by the concentration of
the workers and a more efficient Or
ganzation will result. In tn . re-
spect the Dark Association already
surpasses the Burley pool because
the offices in Lexington are housed
in several buildings.
=, Before the Warehouses may be
opened for tobacco the ten ware
house corporations set up by Aaron
Sspiro, marketing expert, must be
Incorporated. This work is being
A1one by Abe ID. Walduer, Mr..
tSapiro's assistant.
