A dispute arose when the menhaden fisherman organized by Local 300 demanded their own charter from the AMC. The dispute might best be followed through the correspondence between Mitchell and organizer Howard Harrity, in Mitchell's reports to Patrick Gorman (Jan 6, 22, Feb 4), and in his memoranda to the AMC on this subject (Feb 16, 24). There is an exchange of correspondence between Mitchell and historian Jerold S. Auerbach concerning Auerbach's interpretation of the early days of the STFU (Jan. 30; Feb. 2, 12, 116), as well as a letter from former STFU President J.R. Butler on Auerbach's account (Feb 14). The papers include a detailed letter from NSF Executive Secretary Fay Bennett on her organization's activities in the South (Jan 4) and a letter from Mitchell to Frank P. Graham complaining about the NSF program (Jan 20). Finally, there is a handwritten report by Mitchell on a Regional Foreign Policy Conference held at Dallas, Texas by the U.S. Department of State
