The item reads Attention citizens of Greenwood and surrounding area The revolutionary forces at work in this area have begun a boycott of certain business establishments in the city of Greenwood. This useless troublemaking agitation is being sponsored by a group of draft card burning disloyal pro communist riffraff known as the Mississippi freedom Democratic Party it’s local prime mover is a nigger preacher who runs a shoe repair business on Johnson Street. JD Collins has prospered in Greenwood and he is repaying this town for its goodness to him by trying to destroy it We have the manpower and the willpower to remove the scum from the streets but we do not wish to bring this type of trouble to the good name of our fair city. We will not stoop to the level of the trash who seek to promote chaos in our city. There are several things which we ask all good citizens both white and colored to do to counteract these troublemakers. They picked the time of the year when business is generally slow so as to impress their gullible followers with the success of their efforts. We should all make a special effort to be on the streets of downtown Greenwood as much as possible so as to put the lie to their claims of success. Law-enforcement officials and responsible private citizens will be on hand to see to it that everyone is protected on our city streets. The primary object of this so-called boycott is the liberty cash grocery owned by Mr. Sam Killebrew. Mr. Killebrew has been more tolerant with the colored element of his trade and almost any other businessman in town and some of them are rewarding him by trying to destroy his business. Neither he nor in any other businessman can meet the impossible demands of this nefarious group. We should all make a special effort to do some of our grocery buying at the store. Any effort at intimidation by this sorry element against any citizen white or colored should be reported to the law or to any responsible citizen and appropriate action will be taken. This is communism in action the end justifies the means and they only succeed where ignorance and timidity prevail. We worn this group who is not only our enemy but the enemy of all good citizens of this area not to misinterpret our intentions. We are and will remain equipped and ready for any eventuality.

Title A name given to the resource Letter from Earl Johnston Junior to Honorable Herman Glazier, July 23, 1964, on Mississippi state sovereignty commission letterhead. The letterhead reads Mississippi state sovereignty commission, new capital building, Jackson, Mississippi governor Paul B. Johnson, chairman July 23, 1964 Memorandum To: Honorable Herman Glazier, administrative assistant, office of the governor From: director, sovereignty commission Subject: communism and race agitators We worked several days with mayor W. O. Williford of Drew helping him acting like accumulate information to be aired at a police court hearing. Mayor Willifordwas accumulating reports from Los Angeles and senator Eastlands office as well as the sovereignty commission. Tuesday afternoon, over the phone, he advised he was ready and the case would be heard at 10 AM, Wednesday, July 22. We told him we would be responsible for getting press coverage. We called the commercial appeal and the Clarion ledger and told them of the impending hearing and asked that they send reporters. The news that came out of Drew, Thursday morning, perfectly timed with Senator Eastland‘s speech in Senate, dealt and effective blow against those racial agitators with communist backgrounds or associations. We would like to recommend again, even more particularly at this time, that Governor Johnson consider making the statement that the FBI should grow with the prestige and reputation of that office in exposing the names of all racial agitators know through FBI files to be associated directly or indirectly with communist organizations. Communism charges are now being heard in New York and Washington, as well as Mississippi. In a sense we would be putting the FBI on a serious spot. They cannot deny the existence of such files because of director who verse earlier statement that can communist have infiltrated the racial movement. If the FBI chooses to remain silent, it could be well consider that the Lyndon Johnson administration is muzzling FBI on purpose to avoid any further proof public proof that the racists Are being led by communist. We believe such a statement would be far more effective if issued by the governor; however, if the governor thinks otherwise, the sovereignty commission could issue a statement if he grants permission.

Title A name given to the resource This is a memo from Earl Johnston Junior the director of the Mississippi state cut sovereignty commission, to honorable Paul B Johnson, governor and Carol Garten, lieutenant governor. It is dated May 5, 1964, and is on Mississippi state sovereignty commission letterhead. The report is about A D Biettel, Tougaloo college. Our pipeline information from Tugaloo says the trustees gave as their reason for dismissal of Dr. Beittel that he was in efficient. This will certainly work to our advantage. Had Dr. Beittel been asked to resign because of racial agitation or collaboration with communist front organizations, he could have made a martyr out of himself. As it is, he can say nothing because the trustees would naturally answer any statement he made by stating he was discharge for inefficiency. And it efficiency rating is difficult for any professor to overcome in seeking new employment. We also have been informed that the bill we proposed in the legislature two separate authority of the Mississippi a credit in commission from the southern association is a weapon very much feared by Tugaloo authorities. If Mississippi accreditation is taken away they stand to lose considerable money which otherwise would be available from certain foundations. This bill, SB1794, it’s now all the Senate calendar, and we recommend that it be speedily past and signed into law. We also are informed that during the weekend, the SNCC office on Lynch Street in Jackson had on display a big picture of Kruschev with this caption “our man in Moscow.“ We have pass this information onto local press for a possible news picture if the photograph is still on display. We have had no direct contact with the Tugaloo trustees since the announcement about Dr. Beittel We will keep you informed as to future developments. Signed Earl Johnston Junior.
