Tobacco Grower
! A Resolution has been favora-
1 bly reported by the House Com-
jmittee on Foreign Relations
'which it is'claimed will save the
! American tobacco growers $200,-
; 000,000. It was introduced by
Representative Flood of Virginia
and contemplates the federal val
orization of export tobacco some
what similar to the Brazilian
Government’s scheme of coffee
valorization.
The resolution urges the Secre
tary of State to confer with the
government of Austria, Spain,
France and Japan, all of which
have tobacco monopolies, and
ascertain if some arrangement
can be made by which these gov
ernments will purchase their sup
plies from a bureau of tobacco
industry, to be established by
the United States.

Wednesday for governor, is now
president of the state senate and
has been a member of the legis
lature for nine terms. During
that time he has been opposed
only once at election.
While a member of the house
he was twice elected speaker by
a unanimous vote, and the two
sessions of the senate over which
he has presided also elected him
unanimously.
Mr. Slaton was born on Christ
mas day in 1866, in Meriwether
county. While he was a boy his
father, Mr. W. F. Slaton, moved
to Atlanta and became superin
tendent of the city’s public
schools. Mr. Slaton finished both
the grammar schools and the
High school and graduated in
1886 from the University of
Georgia.
