Night rider threats alarm Caswell tobacco farmers in North Carolina
Caswell county fears nocturnal threats as unsigned notices urge independent growers near Purley and Blanche to pool tobacco and skip warehouse auctions. The move aims to raise prices, supported by the Bright Tobacco Growers Protective Association, though violence is denied. Observers seek who posted notices as tobacco stocks fill barns. A separate item notes a Yadkin county Negro changing color with white spots appearing on his skin.
