An oil company is seeking a
permit to constructat least 16
tanks for the storage Of an
asphalt product on q water
front block In Alexandria.
Preliminary plans have been
submitted to the Alexandria
Planning Department by
Steuart Petroleum Co.. Inc, Of
Washington. They call for be-
tween Is and "a tanks on the
block between Lee. Queen and
Princess streets and the Poto-
mac.
II "a tanks are constructed,
according to the plans, the to-
tai capacity would be 10000
barrels.
Attorney Stanford E. Paris,
who filed the plans, said the
tanks would be constructed by
the Atlantic Refining Co. The
Steuart Transportation Co., a
subsidiary Of the petroleum
company, would bring the as
phalt substance to the tanks by
ship from an East Coast port,
probably Philadelphia, he said.
OdOrIess, Non -InfIammable
The material to be stored Is
Q petroleum based product
which is mixed with other
matter to make asphalt. 1t /:
odorless, non-combustible and
non-inflammable, Mr.. Paris
said. Purchasers of the product
would remove 1t by tank trucks
for mixing at other sites. he
said.
The construction, estimated
to cost 81 million, would con-
siderably reduce the cost of
asphalt in the Metropolitan
Area, he said. The material
must now be brought by truck
from Baltimore. he said.
Mr.. Paris said there is nc

Merchants along Pennsylva-
mia avenues ceremonial route
have a new guessing game:
How many inaugural parades
will roll by before they are
marched off the Avenue?
For 18 shops between Ninth
and Tenth streets. the answer
is none" These businesses,
along with several dozen neigh
boring firms off the Avenue.
have been given a tentative
moving deadline Of December.
1864.
The Government is acquir-
ing the property between Ninth
and Tenth streets from Penn
sylvania avenue to E street for
its new $50 million Federal Bu-
reau of Investigation building.
Many Puzzled
But for the other shops on
the Avenue from the Capitol
to Fifteenth street, the ques-
ton is who will go and when.
A White House-appointed
advisory council is drafting
plans for redeveloping the in
augural parade stretch between
the Capitol and the Treasury
Building. The first rebuilding
step is expected to eliminate
some Of the older shops that
front on Pennsylvania avenues
north side.
The likely victims Of the
new" Pennsylvania avenue ap-
pear to be concerned but calm.
In general, the viewpoint seems
to be-:
The project is being developed
at something less than light
ming speed; there are no plans
upon which to base q decision;

II there were plans. they prob.
ably would be changed tomor-
row; so why worry?
Several Of the merchant:
said they would not argue
against the goal Of the redevel-
opment plan.
This block is an eyesore and
so are some others along the
Avenue" Daniel Davidson, the
owner Of Apex Liquors. 633
Pennsylvania avenue, said.
At the same time, however
Mr.. Davidson said that If he
were forced to move 1t might
we'll put him out Of business.
The owner Of the Benjamin
Franklin Bookshop at 1908
Pennsylvania avenue. Frank
Hood, has no trouble at all in
picturing Government acquisi-
ton Of his property.
Mr.. Hood opened on Penn
sylvania avenue less than two
years after Congress took a
chunk Of Capitol Hill land in
cluding Mr.. Hoods book shop
at 13l independence avenue
Sc.
AS to the plans for remodel
ing Pennsylvania avenue, Mr.,
Hood said:
TITS expensive to move, but
its a good thing - tearing
down old buildings and Great

said.
Location Of the tanks in AL

Warehouses on the site,
owned by the American Agri-
cultural Chemical Co., would be
demolished, he said.
Public Hearings Set
Mr.. Paris said he realizes
that members Of the Old Town
Citizens Association, the prin-
cipal guardians Of the historic
area. might object to the plan
I'VE hope and anticipate that
the association, If 1t desires
will meet with us so we can
explain the situation and alle-

hearing takes place." he said

ever steps 1t can to make this

said. The tanks would even be
painted passionate pink or pas

said.

The MuIti-LeveI Ostrich Complex

Strange things ara happening in
the world OF tobacco - that nice stuff
that feeds so many Of N.
First, q meeting (held in duplicate)
was called in the South Carolina Pee
Dee to discuss the problems Of the
8. G. tobacco farmer and the industry
in general. Few Of tho farmers and
spokesmen for the working part Of
the industry were in favor Of the
meeting. One spokesman said the
meeting would only confuse an al
ready confused situation.
The meetings were held, but the
situation did not become confused.
The more touchy subjects were skirt
ed; so no problems were solved,
either.
Horny Representative J. Eugene
Altman said the reason he went to
the Mullins meeting was to hear dis
cussions on the controversial questions
of stabilization, "S'' grading and
grading in general. He was disap-
pointed.
But, the meetings were held and
some of the states leaders" were
seen and heard. People like Gov.
Donald Russell and Clemson President
R. c. Edwards and others talked for
two and half hours and said things
about the quality of the South Caro-
lima leaf not being up to competitive
markets, like Rhodesia.
So, what's new?
North of the border, the North
Carolina Farm Bureau News, which
proports to be "The voice of North
Carolina agriculture" claims to see
brighter future for the leaf industry.
Their logic escapes US.
For instance, they start out with q
bang: ut took % percent less flue-
cured tobacco to make a thousand
cigarettes in 1862 than it did in 1853"
And it got even worse as they went
deeper into the subject: In other
words, it may be few years before
cigarette sales increase to the point
where the domestic companies will
have to buy more tobacco than they
do today"
None of that strikes us as good.
They tagged as good news" the
fact that we are selling more tobacco
overseas than we did last year, but
they followed that up with statistics
that show our overseas competitors,
Rhodesia, Canada and India, were all
down in their production this year.
Naturally the foreign markets bought
more of the American leaf if tobacco
was not available from the competi-
ton.
And, to heap gloom upon contrad die
ton, they predict tariff troubles with
the Common Market countries.
Things do not look good from here.
Not by the false premises put forth
by the North Carolina Farm Bureau
publication. We think they have dis
placed reason with naturalization.
The ostrich outlook - as far as we
have been able to determine - has
never done anyone any good.
But all is not hopeless. We still
nave lot of faith in the qualities
which have steered America in the
H.. ~
Tabor City tribune., 1963-10-30

past - in other times Of trouble -.
and has enabled US to come out ahead
Of the game. That is the ability to
produce quality In quantity.
And that only takes discipline.
Discipline. then, is the thing for which
the tobacco farmer must strive. It Il
nearly impossible to legislate the
methods q man must use In the care
of his tobacco, or how long he should
leave it in the fields before cropping,
or whether he should hand sucker or
heap on MH-S0, or thousand other
things that mean the difference be-
tween high quality tobacco or trash.
There are some, however who will
wait until they are forced to work
for quality, to keep from going out
of business. By then, the export mar
ket should have gone well to pot.
The road back to a Number One
position in an international marketing
situation is harder than staying Num-
ber One and never falling off the
pedestal.
Now is the time of decision. Will
our farmers flirt with the mirage of
easy money" production and use all
the short cuts? 1t seems that the
farmer should be the first to realize
that there is no substitute for hard
work.
But they have flirted with the image
of the easy money in the past and
it turned into a spectre.
And, there are other problems.
There is the grading service which
few like and the 'S' grading, which
is poison to the farmer, and there
is the proposed ten percent acreage
cutback that might encourage only
quantity production.
Yes, the farmer has lot of self
regulating to do.
We will go along with J. M. Lewis
of Florence, tobacco specialist and
acting district agent who said, recent
ly, farmers must think about five
items:
l. Too much concentration on high
yields, forgetting quality, because of
limited acreage.
: z. Harvesting of immature and un-
ripe tobacco and the lost art of to-
bacco curing.
3. Chemicals being used for sucker
ing work because of a shortage of
labor.
a. Poor sorting" leads to COM
plants with the Federal grading
system that really should be shoulder
ed by growers who fail to sort their
types uniformly.
D. There are some good signs that
farmers are thinking about quality.
This year AZ percent planted old line
varieties, 81 percent used recommend
ed kinds and rates of fertilizer, rs
percent spaced their crops properly,
80 percent spaced rows properly and
70 percent treated their crops with
MH-3O in lower rates and later in
the season this year.
But, he said, There remains much
70 be done if the problem of unde-
sirable type is to be overcome"
And that, after all, is the whole
problem.
