Southern Tobacco Growers Back Admin Plan For Higher Prices
A North Carolina governor led tobacco growers in backing farm administration efforts to raise prices for this year's crop and curb next year’s advance. Plans include mailings of 400,000 preliminary contracts to North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia, with retroactivity to aid Georgia and South Carolina sellers. Governors Ehringhaus and Blackwood, plus officials, pressed for open Carolina warehouses and urged support from the United States Tobacco Association.
