Keep Frost Off
Windshield
For Safety

With a cold snap in the air,
and the breath of winter just
around the corner. Police Chief
Otto S. Overton came up this
morning with a timely reminder
for drivers to clear the frost off
their windshields before ventur-
ing out in the mornings.
I'VE have already had a
couple of minor traffic accidents
due entirely to frost on the wind
shields, Chief Overton said.
A cover over the windshield at
night will effectively prevent the
formation Of frost. Once the
frost is there, there is only one
thing to do ~scrape it off, OF
for the modern push button age
:. spray it away. In any event,
Chief Overton says you'll prevent
accidents if you are frost free.

Grower Contribution
Proposed legislation, if enact

each Type q grower would con
tribute fifty cents per acre, or
fraction thereof. each year to a
fund that would be used for pro-
mot onal purposes. This would
bring in the grower as a part
ner with buying companies and
warehousemen.
The fifty cents per acre
charge would be deducted at the
warehouse from the growers
first sale. and would be paid
into the State Treasury to the
credit Of the Type q Dark Fired
Tobacco Promotion Fund.
A commission. appointed by
the Governor. would have the
duty of dispensing these funds
for promotional purposes. This
commission would be similar to
