Dear Senator Stennis:
I do wish so much you had asked XXXXXXXXX, Secretary of ass'n to fully
explain his remark concerning senators Rankin and Eastland. Then you would have had
him in a hole. We have a big job to do in refuting and proving all this northern
propaganda is purely lies. Just to get the negro to ride into power on the negroes back
and use the negro "to pull their chesnut out of the fire" with their bare hand. After living
with the negro all these years the northern crooked polition needs him so he starts all
these lies, for their own benefit. The negroes have made splendid progress through the
help of the southern white people. They have been true friends through the years, and
most of the negroes want to keep their southern friends. If you get the statistics of which
there have been more negroes murdered by mobs in the north than in the south - the
south only kills the culprit the northern
