WALLACE PLANS

Announced
BY JOHN SKIES

WALLACE, Nov. Is - Pardon
MT for getting boosterical, but
this town has driven me to su-
perlatives.
Let's diagnose the case.
First off, and most recent, the
tobacco market here closed the
past Thursday after having sold
the grea-est number of pounds
in its history, Is, 092, 900. For a
better comparison, I believe
you'll find government figures,
when the government gets
around to figuring, will show
that Wallace sold more pounds
Of tobacco this year than any
other one-sale market and very
probably will hit the top for the
creates tnumber of pounds sold
per set of buyers on any tobac-
co market.
That should be enough to
make a man go off talking to
himself in encomiums. But on!
By the end of the year
Wallace, tabled by the last gov
eminent census as harboring
only some 1.182 souls-there're

CITY limits now-wiIl proba b ly
