New Tobacco Bill
Called Step In
Right Direction

A tobacco bill. designed to
keep support prices on an even
keel and passed by the House Of
Representatives, was explained
to area growers here Wednesday
for Farmville's ninth annual To
bacco Jubilee
The large Jubilee crowd heard
Thomas B. Hall, Jr., general
manager OF the Virginia Dark
Fired Tobacco Growers Associa-
tor, term the new measure a
step III the right direction.
Hall pointed out that the bill
would stabilize support levels for
tobacco against descriptive fluctu-
atoms and provide for adjust
ment III such levels in relation to
farm cost. The bill would make
the 1860 price level of support
the same as that Of the 1859
crop an average of 1873
cents per pound.
Support Levels
The tobacco leader noted that
for the 1861 crop and each sub
sequent crop of any kind of to-
bacco for Which marketing
quotas are in effect. the support
level would be adjusted from the
1859 level in direct proportion to
changes III prices the growers
pay. For TIL S c adjustments.
there would be used an average
OF the three years Immediately
preceding the new crop year.
If the bill becomes law, and
Hall viewed its chances of pass

assure the industry ample sup
plies for the foreSeeablc future
as well as stabilize prices. He
declared that under the present
law. The formula for tobacco
price supports is pushing prices

School Board
Splits 3-3 On
High School Sale
To Release Funds
To Former High
School Groups

An unexpected move BY
Cacr"a Palmer school board
member from Leigh District, re-
directed the board S attention to
the possible sale Of the Farm
vile High School property.
During the course of the regu-
lar school board meeting Mon
day evening, Palmer calmly
made motion that the Farm
vile High school property be
declared surplus and offered for
sale.
t. Cook Hix. member from
Prospect district. seconded the
motion. Both explained that they
intended by their vote in the
previous meeting last MONTH
to have the question Of the sale
settled by the people of the
county in a countrywide referen-
dunn. Since there apparently
would be no referendum. they
wished to exercise their vote
on the subject.
In a vote on the question
Palmer. Hix and Dr.. c. l..
Baird voted to sell the build
ing On the negative side B Cal
vim Bass and George Shorter op-
posed the sale. Chairman l.. F..
Andrews then cast his vote
against the sale. which made
the question dead-locked at 3-3.
W. c. Fitzpatrick. who h a
served for many years as tie
breaker for the school board.
was called upon to break the tie
in this instance. At Mr.. Fitz-
patrick request he is also le-
gal counsel for the school
board, the board voted to go
into executive session to con
slider other matters, in addition
to the school sale
It was later pointed out by
Mr.. Fitzpatrick that a motion
TO reconsider the sale needed a
majority to pass. In that case
his vote, as tie-breaker. should
not be cast since the motion
failed to carry anyway.
To Return Class Money
The school board also author
lied the disbursement of funds
held under the name of Farm
vile High School. These funds
were raised by and for the stu
dents in various clubs and or
CARNATIONS in Farmville High
School, The board pointed ont
the money does not belong to
the school board. and it should
be turned back to the persons
composing the groups that rails
ed the money
W. c. Fitzpatrick and T. j
McIlWalne, superintendent Of
schools. have been acting as
committee to determine tn
RI G htful ownership of these
funds. The committee has in
tervieWed the sponsors of the
former high school clubs. and.
with the sponsors, worked out
the ownership.
The motion carried unani-
mously to disburse the funds as
Recommended by the committee.
The funds to be returned will
vary from ten cents to $3.50. The
total m GUN involved is
S3.6l8 IA. Ownership of the funds
in several of the categories
could not be determined salts
factorily. so the sponsors agreed
to turn these funds over to the
general high school fund. which
had deficit OF $5944 As work
