MEN
CALL FOR
REFERENDUM

Pinehurst, May 81 - The Board
of Directors of Tobacco Associates,
Inc, in special session in Pine
hurst today voted unanimously to
call a referendum among some
100000 flue cured tobacco grow
ers of North and South Carolina
on continuance for another three
wears (l953-54) the 10 cent per
acre assessment to promote the
export trade of their product.
Tobacco Associates, a non-pro-
fit organization representing all
flue-cured tobacco interests from
the producer to the consumer, has
taken the maintenance of export
outlets for the flue-cured crop as
it's primary goal since its forma-
ton five years ago. In any normal
wear more than 40 per cent OF all
the flue-cured tobacco produced
in the United States is exported;
therefore, any material reduction
in exports would create a price
lowering surplus.>N2
The date of the referendum was
not set at today's meeting; how
ever, it was pointed out by j.
Henry Vaughan, Elm City, Board
Chairman that 'ssince tobacco
growers will be asked to vote on
the continuance Of marketing
quotas some time this summer,
preliminary plans were outlined
at today's meeting to hold the to-
bacco Associates referendum on
the same date and at the same
polling places as the quota refer
endum is held"
Having for it's authority Public
Laws approved by the 1851 SEES
sions of the General Assemblies
of the two states, the referendum
has been called for every county
in the Carolinas where flue-Cured
tobacco is grown. Growers en-
gagged in the production OF this
wears crop or any person sharing
in the proceeds Of the crop are
eligible to vote.
In two previous referendums'
growers have demonstrated Lneii
overwhelming approval OF tne
self-assessment plan to promote
overseas sale of their crop; IN
is47 with $4,000 growers voting,
s7.6 per cent cast their ballot S
in favor of the assessment and
seain in 1s49 with $4,000 voting
81 per cent favored 1t.
"The 1o-cent per acre assess
ment is only the farmers portion
