Andrews, President, on Jan. 25 said in part:
—

Again in 1948 the volume of sales, both in dollars and unit sales of
cigarettes, exceeded any previous year in the history of the company.
value of sales for the year amounted to $556,506,847, an increase

Net

the 1947 sales of $513,771,422.
A part of
this increase
can
be attributed to the 5.4%
increase
in
the price
of cigarettes which was in effect during the last five
months of the year.
The increase in the unit sales ol' the company's
brands of cigarettes over the previous year was 6.2%.
Due
to
the
higher prices paid for
the last crop of flue-cured
tobacco and to the larger stocks of leaf tobacco on hand at the end
of the year, "there was an
increase over last year in the inventory
value of leaf tobacco amounting to $46,708,342.
This increased invest¬
ment in leaf tobacco is considered advisable in order that the expand¬

The new modern cigarette factory at Durham,

a

The 1949-1950 program calls for capital expenditures
to provide increased facilities for handling leaf tcbaccos, modernization
of
the
cigarette manufacturing plant at Richmond, Va., which will
result in increased capacity and more economical operation, and the
erection of a separate and altogether modern bidding for the research
laboratory.
Such expenditures in 1949-1950, including the completion
of the new cigarette factory and equipment', may amount to as much
