Tobacco Referendum

"Well I see the tobacco farmers
have voted to keep themselves under
the yoke of government regulation and
bureaucratical RECOMMENDATION" was the
comment we heard yesterday by an OPP
ponent of the quota system.
The only words correct in that state
ment are "the tobacco farmers have
Voted" Early returns from Fridays
balloting show that 81 per cent Of those
participating in North Carolina favored
continuation of controls for three years.
Seldom do you see as large a majority
on any public issue as important as
this one.
The tobacco producers did not vote
for government regulation and regi-
mentation. They choose self regulation
with the Federal government merely
furnishing a sound avenue to put it in
to effect. They voted against personal
selfishness which so often has resulted
In glutted markets and disastrous
prices. They, through their ballots, eff
fected their own protection and assur-
ance of a decent return for their labor
during the coming three years.
This is not governmental regimen
tation. Instead, this referendum is a
good example of the sound application
of the principles of democracy to agri.
culture.

Paper Collection

Because the war is over, emphasis
on the conservation of certain mate
rials and commodities may not be as
great in our minds as it was when
patriotism was at it's heights and every
effort, large or small, was being push
ed to achieve victory.
For that reason, it is proper that
we call attention to today's waste
paper collection by the Sans Faute fra
ternity.
Paper, much more important in our
daily lives than We give it credit for
being, is still critically scarce. It's con-
~servation is an important matter and
the best of all means is through whole
hearted participation in collections such
as being conducted today. Other or
CARNATIONS, including the Junior Cham
Der of Commerce, Senior Fraternity
and Boy Scouts, have staged similar
campaigns in the past. The support they
have received should be continued in
today's collection.
To make it a success, please have
all your scrap paper and magazines on
the curb by 9 o'clock this morning. And
remember, if your bundle is overlook
ed a telephone call to 2-3211 will bring
a collector. In case of rain, and this note
is certainly appropriate at this season,
keep the paper covered in a convenient
dry place for the collection truck.
In donating to this collection, you
will not only be helping to relieve the
vital paper shortage but funds derived
from the sale of the material will go
to the benefit of the Catherine Ken
needy home. Therefore, it is a double
purpose effort which should increase
your desire for real participation.
