several thousand dollars in installa

just south of the Montgomery street
intersection of Garnett, which was for’
20 years or more occupied by the late
Joe Smolensky store, until his death
a few weeks ago. The floor will be
lowered to the sidewalk level, a mod

and improved. The store will be oc

ing as soon as the Massee store can
be removed. He will extend the main
portion of bis drug store back the

the prescription department in the
rear of the quarters now occupied by
the Massee company. The front will
be occupied by a Brooklyn merchant I
who will open a men's rurnishing es

U A
Inspector’s Sharp Order To
Pineview Owners Held
lin Abeyance
IMPROVEMENTS ASKED
Intersection To Be Paver! at Young
and Virginia Streets; Water
Line Is Being
Requested
An appeal from the Hawkins broth
ers, owners of Pineview Dairy, against
an order of John T. Alderman, dairy
inspector for the city, that a, costly
new building be erected at the dairy
to maintain the Grade A rating was
reported to the City Council at its
meeting last night to have been ami
cably settled.
The committee of the Council, con
sisting of Aldermen Henry T. Powell
and Fred R. Hight, reported to the
hoard that they had gone with Mr.
Alderman, Dr. Z. P. Mitchell, health
officer, and Horace M. Champion,
sanitary inspector for the city and
county, to the dairy and inspected the
property. was no question about
the purity of the milk supply, but
more room was declared needed. The
room question was adjusted by the
agreement of the dairy owners to
make certain repairs that were ac
ceptable all around and the matter
apparently ended.
Several petitions for street and
water main extensions and improve
ments were handled by the board, and
a committee was named to investigate
a request of the Watkin* Hardware
Company for permission to erect a.
storage on Breckenridge streec near
the Methodist Protestant church.
The meeting was rather a brief
one, and no greater number of vital
issues were discussed or decided.
Petition for the Breckenridge street
storage came through W. H. Fleming,
trust officer of the Citizens Bank and
Trust Company, and set forth that
plans for the structure were made
before the city recently extended the
fire zone, and asked that a permit
be issued for the work to go forward.
A committee of the Council was ap
pointed, consisting of Aldermen D. C.
Lottghlin, H. T. Powell and M. C.
Miles, to make an investigation of the
situation and report back at the next
meeting of the Council.
Property owners in the vicinity
asked for improvement of the inter
section of Young street and Virginia
avenue, and the paving of the area
was authorized as soon as enough
similar projects were in hand to per
mit of the purchase of a full carload
of tar.
Another petition asked for a water
line down Chavasse avenue to Arch
street and along Arch street including
the Flint Hill district. The petition
was referred to the water department
for estimates of the costs, to be re
ported at the March meeting.
It was voted to pay the sheriff $65
for serving tax suits warrants.
The requested refund to W. L. Scog-
gins on a claim of overpayment of
taxes was deferred to a later meeting
for further investigation.
C. C. Dillard, a World War veteran,
was granted a free peddler’s license
to operate in the city.
The balance sheet report and the
filter report for the month of Jan
uary were presented by J. H. Brid
gers, superintendent of the water
works department.

Raleigh Meeting Yesterday
Leaves Them In No Doubt
As To Size
Tobacco growers who attended the
mass meeting in Raleigh yesterday,
along with the hundreds who did not,
knew today exactly where they stand
with respect to the size of their arce
age allotments —at least in the ag
gregate —and were making their plans
accordingly. After hearing addresses
by Secretary of Agriculture Henry A.
Wallace and J. B. Hutson, tobacco
chief of the AAA, the Raleigh meet
ing voted overwhelmingly in favor of
going along with the AAA in its in
creased production program for this
year.
The growers also endorsed plans for
a new sign-up in the late summer for
the crop years of 1936 and 1937.
While it has been understood all
along that most growers in this coun
ty, as well as many, most, of
them elsewhere, were against the in
creased allotments for this year, there
have been quite a number, neverthe
less, who had gone far enough to
make plans for their 1935 crop otr the
basis of the new pronouncement, arrd
they were not overly anxious for a re
versal of that program.
Certainly they now know where
they stand. The Raleigh gathering,
with representatives from Virginia,
South Carolina, Georgia and Florida,
in attendance in addition to the huge
delegations from North Carolina, gave
its endorsement to the increase after
the government officials had explain
ed the reasons for the new order.
NORLINA’S FIDDLERS’
CONVENTION SUCCESS
The Old Fiddlers’ Convention at
Norlina High School Friday night,
sponsored by the local Parent-Teach
er Asociation, was decidedly the most
successful one yet held here. All avail
able standing room in the auditorium
was utilized. From the standpoints
of attendance, number of contestants,
and proceeds, the 1935 Convention sur
passed all previous ones. The pro
ceeds will he used to supply necessi
ties for the local school not provided
by the state funds.
