Title A name given to the resource December 4, 1956 I visited with Mr. East and with his printer, Mr. Esten King of Pascagoula, Mississippi and received the following information. Because of economic reprisals on the part of the White Citizens Council of Mississippi, Mr. East has lost most of his advertising and will probably go out of business early in January unless some help is forth coming. Following this conversation, I talked with Dr. Lee of the Department of Racial and Cultural Relations of the National Council and gave him that information and reminded him of a conversation which we had had earlier with Mr. Roy Wilkins of the NAACP, to the effect that probably some national advertising might be sought and received for Mr. East. December 12, 1956 I received a call from Dr. Lee requesting the number of subscribers to the Petal Paper and also the advertising rate. I got this information for him, and called him back. Two days later he called me and said that it seemed impossible to get national advertising for the Petal Paper, but requested that I supply him with a hundred and fifteen names of individuals in Mississippi to whom the Petal Paper might be sent. He informed me that ten organizations were willing to buy fifteen subscriptions each, making a total of a hundred and fifteen subscriptions. December 27, 1956 I called Mr. East and asked if he would supply me with some of these names. He replied that he preferred not to do so, that if anyone desired his paper and could not afford it, he would be glad to send them a dollar to get a nickel paper to them, but if they did not want his paper, then he would not be a party to seeing that they got one. He was of course most appreciative of this effort by the various national agencies and said that he would be happy to supply the gift subscriptions to the individuals, but preferred that we make our own list, which I agreed to do. https://d1y502jg6fpugt.cloudfront.net/18935/archive/files/60affd81d537ffae3af8902e43f8f422.jpg?Expires=1780531200&Signature=fXWY169RPo6JIBqFj19BxhoX2lL5hTcFSihiIYi7UZFtPIqKl05oElCTR0Y%7EKwHzgzQjx56%7EL3UJ7BPdndJ40mrjmKsQQ%7ExkIxeTFuWa3av%7E7YRkBsr7v0ZNn578Nl6x43DwCUclcYH6WevKsh4YJ0tHkP%7EtNz3ypa1rW8shjhAd6bUrDoIDlIcB9TW9m0jqXbCPt6PuVi2eHbBUFIzwJLsmwxIMCocx4HWuGbAJW33mdN7GCDpjBtglKBNILPQTqPj4UEkI-OnD3BQsgBq%7EznLc594y6HU6wB0s2bbHqyP1rMegnIEAH9CNWGiBZOJYwCvNoNRrXuxJQqCUt03%7EYA__&Key-Pair-Id=K6UGZS9ZTDSZM 4cce4450527c15c24d498f8ab0f07924 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
