JAMES O. EASTLAND COLLECTION FILE SERIES 2: PUBLIC RELATIONS SUBSERIES 4: CLIPPINGS This subseries contains twenty-four boxes of clippings from newspapers and journals dating between 1910 and 1978, with the bulk of the material from between 1941 and 1978. Many of these clippings are news stories that either feature or at least mention Senator Eastland. Other clippings are on subjects of interest to Eastland and his staff. In addition, this subseries includes clippings forwarded to the senator by constituents and other interested parties; however, most examples of this latter group reside in Issue Correspondence. Aside from direct coverage of Eastland, frequent topics are agriculture, civil rights, communism, the Internal Security Subcommittee, the Judiciary Committee, and politics. Researchers interested in Eastland speeches should be aware that press coverage often pre-dates and post-dates the month in which the event transpired. Files are organized chronologically by month/year and then alphabetically by subject. Undated material appears at the end in Box 23. The very last item is a folder of printouts of Eastland news stories between 1969 and 1978 from the New York Times Information Bank. Oversized material resides in Box 24. The quantity of clippings in Subseries 2 is not consistent across Eastland’s congressional tenure, and some years are quite simply sparse – in particular, 1950-1954, 1958-61, and 1963. The volume increased dramatically after 1968, and 1978 boasts the largest amount. Further clippings are available in the Scrapbooks subseries. The Audio Recordings subseries also contains several recordings of Mississippi staff reading local papers aloud over the telephone to Washington, DC personnel. Finally, archives staff photocopied all newsprint clippings onto archival bond paper to ensure preservation and decrease space requirements. To these copies, archives staff added bibliographic notations citing publication, date, and page number when the information was available and not apparent on the copy itself.
