Local civic leaders-representa-

here because ''most of our tobacco
is sold on the border belt'' and ITO
bacco in the coastal section natural
ly ripens faster" The petitions
have been placed in country stores
throughout the county.
If the Onslow farmers indicate
strong approval as is expected, the
petitions will be put out in Fender,
Jones, Craven, Carteret and Dup
lin counties. When enough farm
ers have signed the petitions, a
brief will be submitted to the De-
partment of Agriculture asking
that a market be designated here,

declined to take any action on the
Ash to Grissetowa Road until some
thing is done on the Ash to Hick'
