hopes To acquaint tobacco
growers with this fine record
of Il year ago and to encourage
them To make this season even
bigger and better in Tabor
City.
In addition To this free Coke
promotion, the townwide Silv-
CT Dollar Days event is already
being planned and again mer-
chants will give away 1000
Silver Dollars during the to-
bbacco season. The details and
Gates Of the event have not
been established but it will
generally be of the same pat
irrr as iii the past.
TobaI CO growers will receive
Silver Dollar Day tickets al
the Warehouses and at the re-
tail establishments in town.
Again there will be no obliga-
tiOr ON the part OF those re-
ociNing tickets and anyone can
win.
Both the Silver Dollar DAYS
and free Coke promotions are
being sponsored jointly by the
Tabor City Merchants Associa-
ton and Tobacco Board of
Trade.
Tobacco authorities in the
area have expressed the belief
that this will be among tn,
best seasons on record for loca
growers. The crop in the field:
and barns thus far appears e
be of excellent quality an,
yield. There are indications
however, that tobacco through
cut the nation may not hit
the price peak of year ago.
Foreign production of tobacco
has gained rapidly in recent
years in both quality and yield
and the lung cancer scare has
brought tobacco company
stocks tumbling down in re-
cent weeks
Recent records show that
filter tip cigarettes, prompted
largely by the cancer findings,
now account for $50 percent
Of all domestic cigarettes con-
stunned in the United States.
King size cigarettes account for
1913 percent and regular cigar
cites 26.3 percent.

Mutual Funds
Role in Stock
Deals Studied
By the Associated Press

The role Of the mutual funds
In the dramatic turnabout of
the stock market this week
after its plunge on Monday is
still being aSsayed.
The funds have been credited
with jumping into the market
at its low and pushing it I'D
with heavy buying (their role
in staying out Of the market for
some months previously has
also been credited with caus-
ing some Of the price decline
since March,.
But many officials inside the
$22 billion industry that invests
other peoples money feel the
funds had a supporting part
rather than the lead in turn
ing the market around after
blue Monday"
Reports that heavy bargain
buying" by the funds was the
decisive factor in transforming
a record market plunge into a
tremendous recovery were
termed fantastic" absurd
and silly" by fund executives.
All agreed, however, that the
funds probably did more buy
ing than selling. "Selectivity"
was the key word.
The investment company in
stitute, the induStry's trade or
ganization, reported that a sur
vey Of 81 funds with rs per
cent Of the assets Of its men,
bers. showed purchases of $35
million during Mondays break
and SLIT million Tuesday when
the recovery got under way.
One Of the big selling points
of a fund is its offer Of profess
sional management - experts
who spend full time studying
individual companies, rating
stocks and recommending when
a fund should buy or sell.
Because of this, fund activity
in the market is always watched
closely by individual investors
looking for guidance in their
personal buying and selling.
