TOBACCO CEILING
TERMED UNFAIR
State Grange Asks OPA
To Immediately Re-
scind Order

RALEIGH, Sept. 2-R-Assert-
ing that a temporary price ceiling
placed by the Office of Price Ad-
rninistration on flue-cured tobacco
was IAN unfair, unjust discrimina-
ton against one group OF produc-
ers," the tobacco committee OF the
State Grange today asked that the
OPA rescind the ceiling order i'm
mediately.
The Oranges tobacco committee
held special meeting here to
consider the price ceiling.
Shortly after it met, Congress
man Harold B. Cooley told re-
porters that he did not think that
tobacco was bringing too much
even before the ceilings were i'm
posed" Cooley, who called Oil
Governor Broughton, said that on
bis return to Washington he plann-
ed to confer with Agriculture Sec
retary Wickard and with ]. B. Hut
son, president of the Commodity
Credit corporation, about the to-
bacco situation.
Yesterday Congressman John H.
Kerr made public letter to Price
Administrator Leon Henderson in
which he asked that the tobacco
ceiling order be rescinded and that
a tobacco growers and ware
housemen from North Carolina
and Virginia meet with Wickard to
discuss the situation.
Cooley said that the price ceiling
would work special hardship on
North Carolina growers because
the best grades of tobacco produc-
ed in this state have not yet been
placed on the market. He assert
ed that since tobacco production
had been cut from 1000, 900, 900
pounds in 1888 to 750, 900, 900 pounds
this year, farmers were entitled
20 double parity" for their crop.
The resolution of the tobacco
committee of the Grange said that
the OPA had fixed an arbitrary
ceiling on tobacco at time when
prices We're mot excessive as COM
pared with prices for other articles
that farmers buy" and represent a
very moderate" advance of about
Is per cent over last year.
The committee asserted that con-
sumers of tobacco products were
protected from rising prices by cell
ings on tobacco products, and the
ceiling order will not add any
protection to consumers, but will
merely diminish prices to the grow
ers which the manufacturing com.
panies are willing to pay for farm.
ers tobacco.
"Since the better grades have not
yet begun to flow in any consider.
able volume to market" the resolu.
ton said, prices for such grades
have not been established, and
therefore, the price ceiling now i'm.
posed will greatly penalize the sale
of these better grades, and cause
the growers great financial loss"
The committee asked the OPA to
call a public hearing Immediately in
order to give growers and others
an opportunity to present argu
ments in opposition to the con
mutation of the price ceilings.
Members of the committee at
tending the meeting were: T. w
Allen, chairman. of Creedmoor, w
w. Andrews of Goldsboro, J. Cor
Lanier of Greenville, r. B. Fryal
OF McLeansville, Paul S. Oliver O
Falrmont, and Harry B. Caldwell
OF Greensboro, master of the Stat
Grange.

WAR IS LIFE to Cossacks. They helped
in conquest of Siberia, and in the Napo-
leonic Wars played a major share in
the route of the Emperor at Moscow in
1912. Cossacks raided his troopers in
the burning capital, and when the re-
treat began, the wild men of the Cau-
casus hamstrung Napoleon's lines,
exacting fearful toll in blood for the
invasion of their country.
