SAWYER SPEAKS
AT ROTARY CLUB
Points Out That 10 Per Cent
Of Government Revenues
Comes From Tobacco

Carlton Sawyer gave an address
on tobacco yesterday afternoon at
the weekly luncheon session of the
Rotary club.
Sawyer, a chemist for a tobacco
manufacturing concern, traced the
history of smoking from the days
when he Indians, with a forked
stick, shifted the tobacco into their
nostrils and blew it out their
mouths, to the present day when
ITS, 900, 900, Ooo. cigarettes are
smoked a year.
He pointed out that ten per cent
OF all the revenues received by the
federal government come from to-
oacco, which pays a total of $780,.
100000 a year into the treasury.
He spoke at some length on the
tobaccos which are used to make
cigarettes, pipe tobacco, cigars, snuff
and chewing tobacco, on the diff
ferences in these finished products
and then predicted Tobacco will
sell on the market at least as high
as it did last year.
Guests of the club were Henry
Huick, of Washington; j. W.
hayes, of Roanoke, Bill Sharpe,
Tracy Walker, of Clinton; Bernard
Solomon, who spoke on the third
annual Cape Fear Horse show, and
W.. T.. Thomas, of Richmond.

'FRONTIERS OF '49" IS
OFFERED AT THE RI,JOIJ

Wild Bill Elliott, Columbia's fast
rising young western star, again
blazes into action locally at the
Bijou theatre today, where "Fron-
tiers of '49" is delving into story
material previously untouched by
the screen. Dealing with Califor,
MAS change from Mexican to
American rule, the new film is
concerned with that critical period
in American history when author
ity in Southern California was
vested in a greedy, tyrannous land
company.
Showing the abuses of this vic.
ious regime, the story presents FL
lott as a cavalry officer SEM to
investigate prevailing conditions.
He poses as a settler, finds a shock.
ing state of affairs and moves to
rectify them. How Elliott rights
wrongs and restores order is an
historical document Of considerable
authenticity. That his course of &C.
ton is marked with thrills at
every turn also makes for good
entertainment.
The current chapter of "The
Green Hornet" and a Stooge com.
edy, Eyes, We Have No Bonanza"
are also on the program.
