MANY GROWERS IN

Real Shortage Develops

Planting Spreads

That Area
FASTENERS HELPFUL

Tobacco growers in town this week
in connection with the June term of
superior court brought word Of what
they considered a real shortage of
sprouts for re-planting of portions of
the crop that have died since the orr
ginal trans-planting from seed beds
to the growing fields. Dozens of them
have been forced to go to Eastern
North Carolina in search Of plant sup
plies in areas where the planting sea-
son is over and only part of them
have been able to get enough for their
needs.
The plant shortage is attributed
more than anything else to the raw
ages of the blue mold, the growers
said. Seedbeds that some weeks ago
gave rich promise of supply all the
sprouts needed were attacked by this
disease and wilted and died. Dry
weather before the recent rains got
many of the early settings. and the
greatest difficulty is now being ex-
perienced in finding plants for reset
ting.
Some Vance county growers who
have been to Eastern North Carolina
in search of sprouts say they observed

Complete lighting of the approach
es to the Church-Charles street UNI
derpass has been delayed while ma
terra flor the work was arriving, and
it has not been received here yet. It
was said by Mayor Henry T. Powell
that the Carolina Power & Light
Company informed him the stand
ards for extension of the Garnett
street white way northward to the
upper entrance to the underpass were
held up on account of the strikes in
steel mills.
Bids have been called for by citv
authorities for a traffic signal to be
erected on the William street side
of the underpass, and as soon as
that can be purchased and received
it will be erected. Many motorists
have expressed fear traffic accidents
were easily possible on that side of
the underpass unless some regulations
were enforced.
1t is not planned to install a traf-
fic signal on the Garnett street side.

Commissioners End Two
Day Hearings AS Board
Equalization

About so properly owners, most sOf
them in Henderson township, protest
ed to the Vance Board of County
Commissioners on Monday and Tues
day against valuations placed upon
their property in the recent quadren-
NAL revaluation, which has just been
comrVated. The commissioners sat
Monday and Tuesday as a board OF
equalization.
Monday was given over entirely to
complaints from Henderson township,
but the time was not sufficient to hear
all of those who wished to make pro-
tests and many from Henderson APP
peared also on Tuesday. 1t was said
that comparatively few complaints
were received from the rural town
ships.
Other than hearing the complaints
IN valuations the board did little bus
ness on either day. It had been anti
cipated that some action would be
taken as to the financing of the con-
struction program for two new Negro
schools, one in Kittrell and the other
IN Dabney township, replacing build
ings that burned last winter. But
nothing definite was done.
There was an intimation today that
the board might return for another
sitting before the regular monthly
meeting on the first Monday in July
but the exact date has not been fixed,
it was said by Horace M. Robinson,
register of deeds and clerk to the
board.

Power lines near this city and in
