Tobacco Is

Disagrees With State
Department Report on
Crop Condition; Look

BY FRED M. ALLEN, JR.,
Sales Supervisor, Henderson Tobacco
ROord Of Trade

BOar0 OIL lra0e.
Contrary to releases sent out this
week by the State Agricultural De-
partment that crops over Eastern
North Carolina are considerably be-
low normal, observations by the
writer in covering this territory re-
fleet normal to better than normal
conditions. Tobacco, cotton and
grains have shown up unusually we'll
up to now, and farmers everywhere
are most optimistic over conditions.
Tobacco in Vance and surrounding
counties is advancing rapidly now,
and with, the exception Of slight hail
damage in some sections last week,
little damage has been noted over the
area. Farmers have had excellent
weather conditions for working and
for growth of the plants. Leaves on
advanced plants are filling out and
very little premature budding has
been noticed.
With the annual meeting of the u.
S. Tobacco Association only two
weeks off, all tobacconiStS and farm
crS arc anxious to see what changes.
if any, will be made in selling this
Fall. All Middle Belt markets are
planning to send at least one repre-
sentative to the meeting in White
Sulphur Springs, and the Hender-
son market is sending two delegates
to represent local WarehOuSemen and
farmers. For this reason, our next
report will be sent out on Monday,
July 8, and full particulars of the U.
S. Tobacco Association meeting will
be announced for your information
at that time.

outcome of a tWo-fOld investigation
of the accident, one by State High
way Patrolman T. E. Cooke, Jr., and
the other by Coroner A. P. Paschal.
Months and Tucker were said to
be enroute to Richmond, Va.
Tucker told Patrolman Cooke
that he saw the truck, sounded his
horn and applied brakes to his au-
tomobile, but was unable to stop.
The truck and trailer had proceed
ed far enough across the highway

hold of him in the automobile.
City, county and state police re-
sponded to call to the scene
Late this afternoon, County Pro-
secutor Brooks P. Wyche swore out
warrants charging Aston and Tuck
er with careless and reckless driv-
ing and with manslaughter. Bonds

AUTO OVERTURES,
 NURSES TRAPPED
Naugatuck and ThOmaston Girls Extricated From
 Wreckage By Cop

Hartford, March 6.-Trapped in an overturned automobile following a spectacular two-car crash at Asy- 1um and Ann streets Friday night. Miss Mary H. Anderson, 32, of 134 Curtis street, Naugatuck, nurse at the Waterbury city hospital, and Miss Edna Atwood, 24, of Thomas ton, registered nurse, were eXtricat- ed from the wreckage only after Po- iceman John J. Mancini and spec tators lifted the car to an upright position.
 Miss Anderson was operating her car and. Miss Atwood was sitting be- side her. The operator of the sec- ond automobile was Rev. Harry E. Olcott, 60, of Park avenue, Bloom field, field secretary of the Con- necticut Temperance Foundation.
 Miss Anderson was treated at the police emergency hospital by Po- lice Surgeon Robert B. Garland for an abrasion on her right knee, while the others did not complain of in- juries. Policeman Mancini cut his hand while lifting the car and was also treated by Dr. Garland.
 Both driver claimed the right of way at the traffic semaphore. Rev. MT. Ocott was proceeding northerly on Ann street and Miss Anderson westerly on Asylum street. The lat- ter's care was struck in the mid- dle and turned around and tipped over by the force of the impact. It was considerably damaped The front end of Rev. MT. Olcott's car was smashed.
 The accident drew large crowd. Miss Anderson and Miss Atwood said they came to Hartford Friday afternoon to shop and attend the theater. Policemen Paul B. Beck with and George Hernes investigat-

were distributed to every house. hold in the community, East Cleveland, residential suburb of Ohio's largest city, has maintained all public services, lived within its income, and closed the year with a balance in the general fund. In the last ten years, East Cleveland's net bonded debt has been reduced 75 percent, and the average real estate taxes are now less than 50 percent of the 1930 taxes. Few municipalities in it's population class can boast East Cleveland's low fire loss of 9 cents per person. The national average is almost seven times as high.
 As the Cleveland Plain Dealer remarked editorially, "sound fi- nancial management is an old East Cleveland habit" East Cleve- land has had the manager form of government for 21 years.
 Middlebury, Vt. (2000): For the first time in five years the village of Middlebury, which started op- erating under the manager plan in April, 1897, finished the year without spending from three to ten thousand dollars more than 1t collected in taxes. Starting with a three-month handicap, the new manager spent only $5.72 in ex- cess of receipts.
 Teaneck, N. J. (25,0O0): Up to its neck in debt, this pretty little suburb of New York City adopted the manager plan in 1881. Since that time its total annual ex- penditures have decreased from $8O0,O38 to $7O8,541, debt service charges have dropped from $387,- 806 to $233,621, and the tax rate for local purposes has gone down from $2.72 to $1.86. Nevertheless, the fire insurance underwriters rating of Teaneck has risen from E to B, and other services have been just as emphatically in- proved.
 A community of small home owners, Teaneck has added spe- cial services for this group, such as municipal care for shade trees, new parks, and more play-time facilities for children.
 Pensacola, Fla. (31,579): Like many another city which has adopted a combination of sound financial planning and efficient operating management, Pensaco- la is reaping benefits in the form of improved service at lower costs. Entering the current fiscal year with all bills paid and with a to- tai cash balance of $246,229.63 Exclusive of prepaid tax collec- tions of $167 ,766.19), Pensacola still found it possible to call an issue of $200,000 five per cent i'm provement bonds which were to mature in 1948, retire $5O,OOO worth from sinking funds, and refund the remainder at an all- time low interest lost for Florida of 1861 plus a premium of STAGES.
 Economies were accompanied by progress. More streets were improved during the last two years than in several years pre- ceding, personnel and equipment were added in every department, parks and Identification works increased, and garbage removal services were extended.
 Pensacola has had the council manager plan for seven years, it's present manager for about two years.
 The next article will discuss the spread of the manager plan to counties.

 The report concludes by suggest ing that the possibilities inherent in such a competitive struggle for in- dustry should make each industrial state more keenly appraise and safe- guard its assets before serious in- roads have been made.
