A. and P. COMPANY
HAVE CREATED
new DIVISIONS
These Will Be Known AS The
Atlantic And Southern Dis
tricts. Less Expensive

Oliver C. Adams, Chairman of the
Board, announced this week that due
to the wide territorial expense of the
original Southern Div. of The Great
Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company, and
to permit of closer contact between
it's member Units and organization
personnel, he had decided to create
two new and separate Divisions to be
known as the Atlantic and Southern
districts.
The new Atlantic Division which
will comprise parts of the States of
New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
all of Delaware, Maryland, the Dis
trict of Columbia, Virginia and por-
tions of West Virginia and Tennessee
will have as it President w. F. Leach,
formerly Purchasing Director of the
original Southern Division, whereas
the new Southern Division which will
have jurisdiction over the States of
North and South Carolina, Georgia,
Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, parts
of Oklahoma and Arkansas, and all of
Florida and Texas will be headed by
R. M. Smith, formerly Vice-President
in charge of Company operations in
the State of Florida.
In his announcement Chairman
Adams stated that the formation of
the new Division had been actuated
with the principal view of effecting
closer relations with the personnel.
Headquarters of the newly formed
Atlantic and Southern Divisions, will
be in Philadelphia, Pa, and Jackson
vile, Fla, respectively.

were to be partisan and non
political" All the candidates were
invited and eff they are not here they
have only themselves to blame," he
added.
Mr.. Hungerford included in his ad-
dress a criticism of the proposed con-
stitutional amendment giving the Leg
islature authority to legalize lotter-
les or sweepstakes.
Gambling syndicates, gambling
rackets and racketeers would move
into the state in force" he asserted,
"if the amendment were passed. Good
government would be overwhelmed 4.
such methods of raising money for
relief or any other purpose are a de-
lusion and a snare, and sooner or later
lead to fraud"
The amendment comes before the
voters on a referendum at the Nov.
8 general election.
Returning to proposed park area,
Hungerford explained "the donor of
the 1000 acres of ocean front land
want to get the park plan started and
pushed to completion before real es-
tate speculation or development starts
and the idea becomes impractical"
He predicted thousands of tourists
would visit the area annually, bring
ing new profits to such towns as
Ocean City, Berlin, Snow Hill, POGO
moke, Princess Anne, and Salisbury.

troll Board plan. The dealers pres
ent did not feel that such a committee
would want to take the responsibility
for making any changes in the deal
ers' program, and that their program
represented the limit to which they
could obligate themselves. 1t was de-
cided that the Committee of Fifteen
would meet with the Board of Direc-
tors of the Exchange, at which time
both programs would be thoroughly
discussed and the results placed before
the farmers, who will decide what pro-
gram will prevail.

mittee of Fifteen that a plan be sub
mitted found the dealers receptive,
and as many of them as could be gath

plan for a Control Board, which was
as far as they could go on such short
notice.
DR.. J. Walker Jackson, of Shady
side, moved that a committee from
the dealers and from the Board of Di-
rectors of the Exchange meet with the
Committee of Fifteen and consider

tive Plan and the Dealer-grower Con-
