National Sharecroppers Week was held on March 2 to 9; the papers include a good deal of correspondence about travel arrangements, etc. NSW was a great success, but the STFU leaders and the NSW Policy Committee in New York over whether the proceeds would be sent in 12 monthly installments, or as the union requested them (27 to 30). In addition to NSW, there is a series of letters from William L. Harris, County Agent of Hartford County, Conn., on the matter of providing temporary employment for approximately 500 STFU members in the Connecticut tobacco fields (5, 12, 21).
