Juyeees Vote To Purchase
Park Tract On Bypass

The Tabor City Junior
Chamber of Commerce voted
this morning to purchase a
three and six-tenths acre tract
Of land on US TOT Bypass for
the purpose of developing a
community park and recrea-
ton area.
Last week, the Jaycees voted
mot 10 accept an offer of a
tract Of land offered by the
Tabor City Recreation Com
mission, Inc. at Lake Tabor.
Al that time, the civic club al
so voted to seek an option on
Il tract of land owned by Arth-
ur Fowler for the proposed
park.
AT called meeting this
morning, the club voted unan-
imously to purchase the land
tlocated on a site between US
70l Bypass, and Hickman
Road and bounded by the
Pireway Road. The tract lies
behind Fowler-Soles Store on
Hickman Road. and has some
7O5 feet of frontage on US FOL,
and about % feet of frontage
IN the Pireway Road.
Fowler offered the tract to
the Jaycees for $500 down and
$500 per year plus interest.
Tabor City tribune. (Tabor City, N.C.) 1946-1991, 1963-07-31

The total price asked for the
tract is $4,000.
Inc JayceeS voted not to
take a five-month option Of
fered on the tract, but to 20
ahead with the purchase of
the property. Legal details on
the purchase are expected to
be worked out between the
club and the owner within the
next few days.
1T is expected that the club
VIII move ahead with the de-
velopment of the park project
in the very near future" e.
red Dudney, Jaycee president,
said today.
The local Jaycees have been
discussing the need for a re-
creation area here for nearly
a year. Plans were made for
the development of such an
area at Lake Tabor; however,
many club members felt that
the land offered to them by the
recreation commission at the
lake would be unsitted tor q
recreation area, unless the club
went to much expense in fill
ing and grading the area.
"The land we voted to buy
will involve little initial ex-
pense to clear and prepare it

Banks Major
Lenders To
N. G. Farmers"

North Carolina banks re-
main major source of credit
and other financial services to
agriculture, according to c. BIZ
on Sears, President, First Ma
tional Bank, who represents
the North Carolina Bankers
Association as Columbus Coun-
ty Key Banker.
Based on the 22nd annual
farm lending summary of the
Agricultural Committee of TIE
American Bankers Association,
Mr.. Sears reported that at the
beginning of the year, North
Carolina banks were helping
farmers S97 million in loans. 9
per cent more than a year pre-
viouS. This total included S50.4
million in production loans and
S46.2 million in farm mort
cages. At the same time, S44
million in farm loans was held
by life insurance companies:
$50 million by the Federal
Land Banks; $50 million by
Production Credit Associations:
and S13 million in non real
estate loans plus SIS million
in real estate loans by the
Farmers Home Administration.
About 43 per cent of the pro-
duction credit extended by
lending institutions to North
Carolina farmers came from
banks.
Mr.. Sears said that blanks
in North Carolina, as well as
throughout the country, are
taking a realistic look at agri-
culture, appraising it from the
standpoint of its total contri-
button to the economy. Thro-
ugh the years the agricultural
industry, as a part of the total
economy, has remained rela-
lively stable, with the off
the-farm' portion becoming
increasingly significant. Bank :
ers, therefore, are broadening
their services and are also de-
veloping and promoting pro-
grams that consider the inter-
woven relationships between
farmers and related businesses.
Capital has become one Of
the main pillars in agriculture,
with the total investment in
creasing fourfold during the
past 20 years. Today farm fam
lilies nationally have approxi-
mately S196 billion invested in

NewReguIotions
Go Into Effect
For '63 Season

New Regulations will be in
effect this year all over the
flue-cured tobacco area, new
regulations which the USDA's
Agricultural Marketing Service
says will help TO improve the
inspection of tobacco.
Here are some points which
you should know about these
new regulations.
First of all is the one which
prevents anyone, except for
the producer or owner of the
tobacco, from asking any
questions of tobacco inspect
or. This is being done to in
sure that no one will interfere
with an inspector or distract
him from his all-important
job of grading your tobacco.
The new regulation specifical-
ly states that a producer OF
owner of lot of tobacco may
ask an inspector any question
about the grade given his to-
bacco.
Other new regulations deal
with the spacing of tobacco in
tobacco warehouses, and so
deal primarily with warehouse
emen. These regulations pro-
vide for a minimum space of
l8 inches between rows, and
"a inches at the end of the row
between the last basket and
the wall -
These regulations generally
concern procedures already be-
ing followed by most ware
houses in the flue-cursd area.
They are designed merely to
arrive at conformity among all
markets so that inspection can
be Performed as ,apidly az
possible =
In. AsrieultuSa,. Marketing
Service, Which through its To-
bacco Division performs to-
bacco inspection services, says
the new regulations will aid
the service in doing a more
efficient job for the flue-cured
tobacco industry.

Georeio-FIorido
Weed Prices Up
AS Quality Rises

Tobacco prices were high
err Monday for a large numb
er of grades sold on the Geo
rg'a-Florida flue-cured mar
kets. The Federal State
Market News Service re-
ports more than half of the
grade averages showed gains
over last Friday. Other
grades were generally I'M
changed. Most increases
ranged from Sl.OO to $500
per hundred pounds; how
ever, some nOndeScript show
ed gains of $500 to $500.
Companies were still paying
a top price of $1,000. Volume
of sales continued heavy and
quality of offerings showed
improvement. The percent
age of nondescript and prim-
ings decreased while notice
ably more leaf appeared on
the warehouse floors.
The general average of
S46.l9 per hundred for 21,-
3C6,2S9 pounds sold on the
two days opening week was
s7ssG under the rones for the
corresponding sales last year.
This sharp drop was due to
the lower prices paid for
primings and nondescript
plus the inferior quality.
United States grading stand
ards for primings are the
same rs last year and there
has been no substantial
change in the nondescript
grades. The support level
for all tobacco offered on
the two days, regardless of
weather placed under loan
or not. averaged SAILS. per
hundred pounds. This COM
pares with support level
of Si3.S9 for the same time
last year.
The Sterilization COrpOr-
alton received 1913 per cent
of opening weeks sales un-
der the Government loan
program. This compares with
20 per cent for the first
two days in 1862.
