NAACP Records, General Office File, Box IIA449, Negro Digest, folder 3; supplied 91-page PDF; PDF pp. 4, 6–7, 9
The June 22 letter identifies the article as originally in The American Mercury, January 1929, and says a $10 check is enclosed. The July 5 reply thanks Johnson for the check and July issue copies. This supports a specific compensated reprint transaction; bank clearing and a complete writer-payment ledger were not inspected.
