Scope and Contents
Reports arrived from W. M. Tanner and others in Missouri that the WPA was laying off workers to aid planters in obtaining cotton choppers at a lower wage; see especially Tanner's affidavit on the matter (6). Reports from locals in Mississippi are especially plentiful this month. Beginning in June, a monthly listing of "Amounts Remitted by STFU Locals" appears along with the monthly financial statement; these lists provide a good picture of the strength and geographical distribution of the union
