******** NBC NEWS ELECTION YEAR ’64 NBC NEWS REPORTS EXCLUSIVELY ON SENATOR HUMPHREY'S ROLE IN MISSISSIPPI DELEGATIONS' CONTEST NBC CONVENTION CENTRAL, ATLANTIC CITY, Aug. 25 — In an exclusive report, NBC News yesterday provided the first news of Senator Hubert Humphrey's meeting with rival Mississippi delegations in an attempt to resolve the contest over their seating at the Democratic national convention. NBC News correspondents Sander Vanocur and John Chancellor uncovered Senator Humphrey's role as mediator when they interviewed three participants in the meeting — Aaron Henry, a member of the delegation of the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, and Joseph L. Rauh Jr., Washington attorney representing the delegation. The interview, in which the three spokesmen for the Freedom Party emphasized that Humphrey favored neither side in the dispute but sought to find a settlement acceptable to both, was presented as part of a special NBC News program in the "Campaign and the Candidates" series and was broadcast Monday (Aug. 24), 3:30 p.m. EDT. In other segments of the program, NBC News correspondent Edwin Newman interviewed Representative Edith Green, Oregon delegate, who has proposed a compromise plan to resolve the Mississippi contest^ and Richard Valerian! reported from the scene of Civil Rights picketing out¬ side the Convention Hall.
