Now it was another of lose

relaxed with a clgaret burning
between his long fingers. Tere-
sa sat opposite him, her head
resting against the back of the
chair. Alison sat on an ottoman
on the hearth, her back aching
from the tenseness.
Teresa had been talking
about a celebrity she had met
IN Florida recently. Alison had
always noticed that her re-
marks concerning anyone who
had made good were bitterly
scathing. Then, without pref

said, when l went in to Sans

portant is that the beginning
marke tgrew with each passing
year until in 1916 Tabor City
sold more sweet potatoes than
any competitor and thereby be-
came the Sweet Potato capital
of the world. In 1916, Tabor City
bought and marketed more
than a million bushels of sweet
potatoes. 1t took that to become
the worlds Sweet Potato capt.
! al.
You might inquire what was
left for Tabor City to accom-
plish. 1t did not rest on its hard
won laurels. Like Alexander the
Great it began looking around
for other worlds to conquer.
And Tabor City, in 1947, is con-
quering two other worlds.
First in 1947, Tabor City es-
tablished and is operating daily
the worlds first Sweet Potato
auction. market you think of a
auction market. When you say
tobacco market and similarly
the Sweet Potato auction mar
ket has a sales supervisor who
is Billy B. Carroll and an auc-
tioneer, Delwyn N. Johnson.
How is the Sweet Potato auc-
ton market succeeding? On o.
tober %, it sold 5000 bushels;
on October 81 it sold 1896 BUSH
els. It is averaging around S.
900 bushels a day.
In addition to this daily auc-
ton of the best grades of sweet
potatoes, Tabor City is doing
something about the grades too
low to be desirable for auction
marketing-the culls.
The Carroll Sales company
has a dehydration plant and
here the culls are dehydrated.
When finished the dehydrated
product looks most Of all like
shoe string fried potatoes, nat
urally coarser. These de-
hydr ated potatoes are used for
stock feed. Not only are they
sold to large wholesale feed
dealers but the individual farm
er may bring his culls here and
have them dehydrated, paying
a toll like he does at a cotton
gin.
Having conquered one other
world in 1947, Tabor City will
conquer its second other world
making three in al-on Octo-
Der 81 with the inauguration Of
an annual later day. There will
be a queen selected to reign
over the new world. There will
be a main speaker in the per-
son of Rep. J. Bayard Clark,
There will be an imported mas
ter of ceremonies James A..
Rogers, editor of the Florence
S. C. Morning News. The gen.
eral chairman for the day is
Shay p. Smith.
With three world scalps in its
belt what will Tabor City do in
1913? Place your bets now that
Tabor City will conquer at least
one new world in 1913. Go ahead
and give odds if you wish.
Tabor City is a good bet be-
cause Tabor City claims to Of
fer a cash market for all prod
ucts grown in its territory. If
Tabor City lives up to that
claim, just which is the world
il cannot conquer?

Mr.. Mason voted for the $500

has sponsored legislation to grant

Over in the Senate, the chairman
ship has gone to Senator LANCER OF

that his committee will be an active

Senator LANCER has been a warm

Representative Hartley, of New
Jersey, told reporters that he had
decided to take the Craftsmanship OF
the House Labor Committee.
Mr.. Rees has been for several
years the ranking Republican men,
ber of the House Civil Service Com
mittee, while Mr. Mason was second
to Mr.. Hartley in the Republican
membership of the House Post Of
flee Committee. With the COM
mittees merged under the Reor-
ganization Act, the two men are
now trying for the Craftsmanship Of
the combined group.
What complicates matters is that
Mr.. Rees and Mr.. Mason have equal
seniority in terms of congressional
service and committee chairman
ships have usually been awarded on
a seniority basis.
Rank Is Mentioned.
Mr.. Rees' supporters argue that
he has been the outstanding Re-
publican in the House during the
past few years in civil service affairs
and is entitled to the job on that
basis. They also point out that Mr..
Rees was the ranking minority
member on the House Civil Service
Committee, while Mr.. Mason was
second ranking minority member on
the Post Office Committee.
This, they assert, should give Mr..
Rees first crack at the chairman
ship under the rules for determining
the chairmanships of the various
committees.
Friends declare Mr.. Mason has
made a fine record on the Post
Office Committee and has devoted
much of his time to its affairs. They
say he would make a good, aggres-
sive chairman of the Civil Service
Committee.
There is no personal conflict be-
tween the two men, but both are
giving no ground in their fight to
win the craftsmanship. The job has
achieved new Importance with the

never under estimated the import
