One matter discussed was the making of a record album which would contain the speech made by Martin Luther King at the March on Washington. This discussion also included how the proceeds from this record would be distributed. Jones indicated that he felt that the proceeds should go to the three civil rights groups equally and that King should discuss this matter with A. Phillip Randolph (head of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters) before he entered into an agreement with RCA, because the other groups would think that King was trying to capitalize on the March for the benefit of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) or for himself, Both men agreed however, that King and the SCLC would make much more money if they had the album exclusively . They also agreed that the People would buy the album because of King's speech and therefore it would not be fair to split the money among the other organizations. It was also agreed that King would be in a difficult position in discussing this point with Randolph and that therefore Jones. should discuss this matter with Randolph. rfol® ay an, woe a CLASS.
