Buckley Reports South Tobacco Growers 'Broke' in SC Markets
Clyde E. Buckley, a Madison County tobacco grower, returns from nine days in South Carolina markets reporting prices as low as four cents per pound. He describes widespread financial distress among SC growers, with large crop losses and many barns selling tonnage for little or no profit.
