East Belt Tobacco Prices Hold Record Levels
Prices for flue cured tobacco stayed at record heights on the East Belt on the second day of Easter North Carolina Belt sales. The day saw some grade gains and a high opening average of 68.10 dollars per hundred pounds, with more leaf graded and fewer non descript. Directors of the Middle Belt Warehouse Association plan a Raleigh meeting Saturday to fix the opening date for that belt covering ten North Carolina marketing cities. In the South Carolina border segment NC Belt prices ranged from 68 to 75 dollars, with low quality leaf and fair primings most sold. Some tobacco remained unsold in united form after government price support ended Wednesday, with bids largely rejected.
