Tobacco Market Are Set
Warehousemen and Board of Trade Sales Com
mittee Agree at Meeting; Selling lme Way
Be Reduced; Three Proposals Made

Sales for the opening day OF the
Henderson tobacco market next Sep
tember were assigned at meeting OF
warehousemen and the sales commit
tee of the Henderson Board of Trade
last Saturday evening at the Cham
Der Of Commerce. 1t was the last Oh
of a series of meetings held Tor the
purpose of arranging sales system
Tor the 1939-40 season
The arrangement will be reported
to the annual meeting OF the Hen
derson Tobacco Board OF Trade,
which will be held MONDAY evening,
April 3, for the election OF officers
ana transaction of such other busi-
ness as may come before the board.
Opening day sales were announced
as follows: Banner Warehouse, tlrst
first sale; High Price Warehouse,
second first sale; Farmers Ware
house, first second sale, and Big
Henderson second second sale.
Fred nj. Allen, Jr., secretary OF the
Chamber of Commerce and sales sup
ervisor for the tobacco market, in
announcing the results of the meet
ing, said there is considerable dis
cussion and strong possibility that
the sales committee Of the Tobacco
Association of the United States will
adopt some method Of cutting down
selling time. The meeting Saturday
night discussed the three proposals
the committee has under considera-
ton, and which will receive atten-
ton at the tobacco associations con-
vention the latter part of June.
If the sales week is cut to either
five or six hours per day, morning
sales will be of exactly the same
length as afternoon sales on the Hen
derson market, it was said. If a four
day week should be adopted, it was
moved and approved that Fridays
should not be counted, just as Satur-
days and Sundays are now, providing
that the sales card on file in the sup
ervisor's office will remain equitable
to all warehouses after this change
In the event of tonnage limitation,
such as only allowing one set of buy
ers OF go over 100000 pounds of to-
bacco per day, the poundage will be
equally divided between the first and

Advices from Durham were that
the accident was reported to city
police by Ebert Hunter, of Knox
street, Durham. He said that he
noticed something prone in the high
way as he was driving his car and
that his car probably struck the OBJ
ject. Going back to investigate, he
discovered the body, and then mott
fled officers immediately.
Upchurch's car was found at a
filling station about a half mile from
where the body was located. Police
said he had apparently walked down
the highway and probably was
struck by passing car or lay down
in the road. Two Negro men were
found in the car when officers ar
rived. Both appeared to be under the
influence of liquor, the officers said
Neither was implicated in the death,
as witnesses were quoted as saying

Stocks reversed their trend in today's
market, but early advances running

stantially reduced in the latter part
of the proceedings. After getting OH

There are now fireplace logs suit
ed to the apartment dweller. They
are compressed under great pres

that each log is bone dry, clean,
uniform in size "A by 1914 inches),
and has no splinters. There is all
most no storage problem, as each
log burns for four hours, and a
months supply can easily fit into
the closet along with the umbrella
and galoshes. These logs give off a

Pure Cellulose Curtains
Look Like Rare Chintzes

Pure cellulose curtains that look
like printed linens and rare chintzes
are making home-decorating history
for 1889. So low is their cost that
an entire house can be redraped
for less than $40, and when the cur
tains are soiled they can be thrown
away and replaced for a cost equal
to or less than the cost of launder-
ing.
Looking like vellum and feeling
like fine percale, these materials are
soft, pliab1e, with permanent drapa-
bility and "hand." They are avail
able in a wide number of patterns
and designs in rich, sunfast colors.
Coming completely finished and
ready to hang, with matching tie
backs, the Grapes are sold in three
lengths.

There's a Good Reason
You're Constipated!

When there's something wrong
with you, the first rule is: get at
the cause. If you are constipated,
don't endure it first and cure it
afterward. Find out what's giving
you the trouble.
Chances are it's simple If you
eat the super-reflned foods most
people do: meat, white bread,
potatoes. It's likely you don't get
enough bulk" And "bulk" doesn't
mean a lot Of food. It's a kind Of
food that isn't consumed In the
body, but leaves a soft bulky"
mass in the intestineS and helps
a bowel movement.
If this is your trouble, you
should eat a natural ''bulk" pro-
ducing food-such q one as the
crunchy, toasted, ready to- eat
cereal-Kellogg's All-Bran. ALL
Bran is the ounce of prevention
that's worth a pound Of emer-
gency relief. Eat it every day,
drink plenty Of water, and "Jofn
the Regulars" All-Bran is made
by Kellogg's in Battle Creek.
