Ten Ontario farmers contest limits on growing flue-cured tobacco before the Ontario Farm Products Marketing Board. Mendel Green argues the case could reach higher courts if denied. About 4 000 others have permission and plant their 1963 crop. Seedlings worth 31 000 dollars await planting as delays threaten viability. Ervin Robbins notes about 3 percent of seedlings have outgrown their greenhouses. If denied after June 1, further losses loom.
