February, 1942, 1942
Scope and Contents
The investigation into the violence at Caruthersville, Mo. continued throughout February and might best be followed through the letters of Frank McCallister, Secretary of the Southern WDL. In this connection, see also Mitchell to McCallister, providing good background information on the incident (3) and an exchange between STFU lawyer Claude Cooper and Gov. Donnell of Missouri (12, 27). There is a statement from Mitchell to the Joint Legislative Economy Committee (U.S. Congress) arguing against the abolishment of FSA (13) and a long letter from Mitchell to NAACP Secretary Walter White on the case of Edmondson, Ark. (18).
