BRITISH PURCHASE
SIXTH OF TOBACCO
Most Important Leaf Gust
omer U. S. Has; Next to
Home Market

Washington, Nov. 18.-The impor-
lance of the British market-second
only to the home market-tO United
states tobacco producers, is emphasiz-
ed in study recently completed by
P. G. zimmerman, tobacco specialist of
the Bureau of Agricultural Economics
stationed in London.
During 1885 and 1886 about one-sixth
of the United States tobacco produc-
ton, one-half of total tobacco exports,
and two-thirds of tobacco exports to
Europeans sold to the United King
dom.
In the report made available by the
Bureau today, zimmerman, says that
about out of every or pounds of
United States flue-cured tobacco is
marketed in the United Kingdom He
adds that "since the British demand
is for good-quality leaf, the market is
on high plane from the standpoint
Of value, purchases for the last years
having been valued by United States
exporters at almost 100 million dol
lars annually"
The demand in the United Kindom
since the World War has been pri-
marily for light-colored Virginia Gig
arettes made exclusively from flue-
cured tobacco. The taste for these Gig
arettes has become increasingly pre-
valent About IS percent of the total
tobacco consumption in the United
Kingdom now is in the form of cigar
cites; more than SO per cent of these
flue-cured tobacco.
From 1910 to 1919, the United King
dom obtained about 90 percent of its
tobacco supply from the United States
Since then, through the development
of Imperial commercial policy involv-
ing preferential treatment for i'm
ports from British countries, increased
quantities, especially of leaf for use
in pipe tobacco, have been obtained
from countries within the British En-
pire. The United States now supplies
about 70 percent of total leaf imports.
This preference, amounting to-
about 50 cents per pound on Empire
leaf, or from more than to times
as much as the value of the tobacco,
is by far the most important factor
determining the competition between
United States and Empire leaf in the
United Kingdom says zimmerman.
Within the Empire, the principal
sources of supply for flue-cured
tobacco are Southern Rhodesia, India,
and Canada; for dark tobacco, Nyas-
saland and India. Foreign countries,
other than the United States supply
less than percent of the total
Consumption Of tobacco in the Bri
fish Isles, especially of cigarettes, is
expected to continue to increase" the
report states, with temporary recess
sions in the event of industrial de-
preston, but the rate of increase may
be somewhat slower.

war has been due to increased cigar

Burn Wounds Included.
Next came Negro boy. He had ex-
perienced a hard time of it. AS the &c
suit of burns, it had been necessary
to amputate one of his toes. His ex-
preston indicated he was suffering
physical pain, but hravely he went to
the table. Examination showed he was
improving. He was given this reassur-
ing piece of information and smiled at
Ma standing by. She looked pleas

her neck and the two prepared to go
back to the country.
Another Negro lad had been severe
ly burned around the waist, and All
other had a wound in the arm, which
had given him lot of trouble. 1t was
still draining, but he showed unm1s-

Some of the children present were
supplied with new casts, including
tiny baby being treated for club feet,
to further the progress of correction.
Others had their casts removed and
were told to walk without them for
while, then report back to the clinic
for the protection of the correction
that had been done.
Included in the group was one lit

LumbertOn Clinic Example.
At the Lumberton clinic, recently,

with the assistance of a kindly-faced

been under treatment for a number
of weeks. This lad was one of 40
pollomvelitis victims in Robson, in
1885. and among the 80 per cent the
dread disease left incapacitated. But
he is coming around all right. He will

Wilmington, Nov. 18-With Robert
N. Simms, of Raleigh, presiding, the
10th annual Baptist State Conven-
ton comes to a close tonight, after a
three-day session in which over 1000
delegates heard presentations by about
go Christian leaders.
Meetings were held in the First Bap-

address to the convention, and it was
read by Pastor J. A. Easley at the
session this morning. In it DR.. Poteat
declared, "The obligations of Chris

LABOR's NEW DRIVE

After taking staggering right
to the jaw from Independent steel
companies and blow to the hearr
from New Dealers last month John
L. Lewis's c. 1. o. was again trading
punches with industrial employers
last week
With renewed vigor the c. l. o.
was pushing an extensive drive In
nine states to obtain collective bar
gaining within another basic mass
production industry. Lewis's lieuten-
ants, heads of the Textile Workers
Organizing Committee, announced
that they had called out on st:ikc
10000 of the $4,000 workers EN-
ployed in silk and rayon mills
throughout New York, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania and the New England
states.
T. w. o. c. leaders termed the
present strike 1.-The most successful

silk and rayon industry. In New Eng
land 10000 workers were already
signed with the c. 1. o., and by the
end of the week 5000 had signed
in Pennsylvania.
General purpose Of the strike was
to force employers into granting col
1ective bargaining.
Whereas Lewis's fight to organize
Independent steel company workers
was repulsed by the stubborn resist
ance of company officials, he did not
expect to meet similar opposition
from textile bigwigs. Most employers
in this basic industry would like

stabilizing operating conditions in a
additionally disorganized field.

Crossbow, Medieval Arm,
Death TO Man or Beast

Used not only as military weap-
on but also as the sporting arm of
the hunter of the Middle ages, the
powerful crossbow, or arbalest, has
a romantic and interesting history,
notes Bob Becker in the Chicago
Tribune 1t is believed to have been
introduced into England as mill"
tary and sporting arm by the Nor
man invaders in 1865, and it is
known to have been popular in con-
tinental European countries even
before that time, having been used
for hunting stays, wild boars, hares,
and other game. AS a soldiers
weapon it was branded as "hateful
to God and unfit for Christians"
But sportsmen of the Middle ages
became so fond of their crossbows
that they continued to use them for
more than so years after the intro
duction of the handgun. Crossbows
date back to the Fourth century
Manuscripts of the Tenth century
mention the weapon.
The main parts of the crossbow
are the arbrier Cor stock and the
short, powerful bow mounted on the
stock at right angles. At the bow
end is "stirrup' or loop of iron.
The bowstring, when at tension, is
released by trigger. For its dis
charge the weapon is held up to the
shoulder.
The force of the released bow
string propels short arrow known
as bolt Tor quarrel, stone, clay
ball, or other missile with terrific
force. The earliest types of cross
bows were crude affairs with wood
en- bows. These were liable to warp
or break. So brossbowmen devised
the composite bow made by combin-
ing horn and whalebone, or yew
and animal tendons. 1t is thought
that the first composite bows, those
made by the Saracens, were
brought to Europe during the
Twelfth century.
