Tobacco Growers Call for Higher Ceilings in 1943
In Valdosta Georgia and across Florida growers joined to urge selling prices for flue cured tobacco at least 25 percent above the 1942 average. They also pressed to keep grain and auction warehouses closed until an equitable ceiling is agreed, asking Governor Arnall to act. Florida growers opposed any ceiling, while Georgia farmers pushed for a ceiling around 25 percent higher than 1942. The OPA planned to announce ceiling levels on July 27, with Georgia Farm Bureau Federation backing the higher ceiling even as elections loom.
