SURVEY FOR CITY
NOT YET FINISHED
Occupational Records Still
Being Sought By En-
ployment Office

An occupational survey of business
in Henderson, which was begun re-
Gently under the joint auspices of the
local office of the North Carolina
State Employment Service and the
Henderson Chamber OF Commerce, is
still in progress, with some odds AMI
ends to be taken care of before the
work is finally ended, it was stated
today by Manager Evans.
Workers who called on business
houses for the data sought asked for
information as to the general nature
of the business, the type of produc.
turned out or handled, the number
of employees, how the employees are
affected by seasonal employment and
other matters.
The survey began two weeks ago,
on September 26, and was to end to-
day. Mr.. Evans said it had been de-
layed some because of rush orders
that had been received work a large
number of workers, who had to be
rounded up for immediate jobs in
private industry.
Two workers from the Raleigh gem
eral offices came here to assist in the
soliciting of the data. The Chamber
of Commerce endorsed the survey and
gave its moral support and good will,
furnished no workers for the under
taking.

1889 STATE TAGS
ALREADY ON HAND
First Shipment Of 1000 To
Local Office; On Sale
December /

A consignment of 1000 new 1899
State automobile license plates for
sale by the Henderson branch office
of the Carolina Motor Club have been
received here, wv. C. Gates, manager
of the office, said today. This is the
first shipment and others will follow
as soon as they are made in the plant
at State Prison in Raleigh.
The plates are being shipped from
Raleigh as fast as they are ready, but
will not go on sale until December 1.
A noticeable difference is evident
in the new plates. The background
is of maroon color, with the numerals
in a silvery white paint. The tags are
thinner up and down, and the words
North Carolina" are smaller. The
metal composition of the license
plates is said to be of much better
quality and more durable.
New 1889 license tags for the CITY
of Henderson were received some
weeks ago, but these will not go on
sale until the State plates are offer
ed for the first time December 1.

The finaI night of the fair brought
chilly temperatures that tended to
reduce the attendance somewhat. 1t

Wednesday, which was school day,
and marked by clear skies and mild
temperatures afternoon and night.
Final checking up has not been com
pleted, but E. L. Fleming, president,
and c. M. Hight, secretary, the man
ayers of the fair, said they believed
they would show successful week
financially although it was evident
that the cold weather had reduced

by PWA in Washing
ton on Friday

City of Henderson officials awaited
formal notification today from PWA
officials of the approval in Washing
ton Friday of the city's application
for funds with which to build

pected to rush the construction pro-
aram as rapidly as possible when that

precisely the type and extent of the
disposal plant that will be built The
FWA allotment was for. $50, 600 loan
and a direct grant, or gift, of $43,-
1863. The project has been spoken of
as a 100000 program of work
though the PWA figures add up to
only $96,363. City officials are GER
ain, however, that their project can
be held within the limits of the funds
made available.
The next step in the procedure is
understood to be the perfection of the
,lans and the calling for bids for the
construction work. PWA regulations
equire that actual work must have

Over 2 Million Pounds
Sold For $1lO,149 Here
Weeks Average Is
$21.95; Season Sales
7,444,338 Pounds For
ST., 546, O57.17

p Sales reached new weekly high
for the current season on the Hen
derson tobacco market the past week,
with 2,1O4,702 pounds disposed of for
1851 ,891.O5 at an average of $2195 per
hundred pounds, Fred M. Allen, Jr.,
sales supervisor, announced today.
This brought season sales on the
market to 7444,338 pounds for $1,546,-
O57.17 at an average of $20.7 per hun
dred pounds Winding up the week
Friday was a sale of 473,122 pounds
which brought $110,14993 for an aver
age of $2328 per hundred pounds, the
best for any single day of the current
selling season.
For the corresponding week of Oc-
tober 4-8 last year, the market sold
2,464,O16 pounds for $691, 076.52 at an
average of $28.04 per hundred pounds.
and for the season on October last
year the market had sold 1921, 576
pounds for $1662, O76.S2 for an average
of $28.O6 per hundred.
Grade by grade, every basket sold
this week has been high and salts
factory, according to Mr.. Allen. Prices
have been strong since sales began
Monday morning, with all types of
leaf selling well, he stated. Fancy to-
bacco has also shared greatly in the
price advance which began Monday.
and as a result top grades have been
bringing averages as high as $55 or
better per hundred pounds, it was
added.
Sales on the Henderson market for
the season to date far exceed those
for the corresponding period a year
ago, with margin of around one mil
lion pounds. Extremely low quality
leaf has predominated on the ware
house floors up to this week, due to
rains and unseaonable weather dur
ing the growing season in this Sec
ton, Mr.. Allen said. He predicted
however, that most of the common
grades have been sold and better
quality tobacco is displacing that
type.
Floors were clear today of offer
ings and in readiness for Mondays
break, expected to be the largest of
the season so far. The supervisor said
farmers have been extremely well
pleased with the prices that have been
paid for all grades this week.
