Date(s) of Materials
June 1963: 12-18
Description
Dictation Belt 22A contains four sound recordings. Item 22A.1 a brief telephone exchange on June 12, 1963, between Personal Secretary Evelyn Lincoln and a White House Operator. Lincoln asks the operator to place a call to Mrs. John Fell on behalf of President John F. Kennedy. Machine noise precedes and follows the exchange. Item 22A.2 is a telephone conversation held on June 12, 1963, between President John F. Kennedy and Representative Carl Albert of Oklahoma. They discuss the defeat of a bill in the House of Representatives, votes of particular congressmen, and the effect of an order requiring racial integration. [White House Operator?] speaks to Representative Albert while he holds for President Kennedy. There is an echo during a brief segment of the recording. Item 22A.3 is a telephone conversation held on June 14, 1963, between President John F. Kennedy and Governor Jimmie Davis of Louisiana. They discuss a close vote in Louisiana and a possible visit by Governor Davis. The quality of recording of Governor Davis’s side of the conversation is very poor. Most of Governor Davis’s speech is inaudible. Item 22A.4 is part of a telephone conversation held on June 18, 1963, between President John F. Kennedy and the Mayor of Jackson, Mississippi, Allen C. Thompson. They continue to discuss demonstrations and other aspects of the civil rights situation in Mississippi. President Kennedy asks about issues raised by visiting clergymen from Jackson. The recording of this conversation ends abruptly and continues on Dictation Belt 22B.
