Leaf Quality Is Defended At Hearing

Approximately 700 Georgia Florida tobacco growers attended a Douglas hearing to defend the quality of their fine cured tobacco amid government calls for improvements. The U S Department of Agriculture opened remarks by warning that acceptable tobacco is essential for the U S to remain a world producer and exporter. Georgia Florida farmers, supported by State Commissioner Phil Campbell and Rep Iris Blitch, argued their crop is up to par and that poor quality from other belts drags down the average. Blitch noted a wide gap between tobacco turned into government loans in Georgia Florida and other belts, suggesting buyers discard inferior leaf while it backs up the loan program. Blitch cited that about 20 percent of the 1962 flue cured crop went to government support, versus 2.36 percent in Georgia Florida.
