WATS Line & Phone Reports

Skip Introduction

Before there were "800" numbers there was Wide Area Telephone Service (WATS). A WATS line allowed a company or organization to make unlimited long-distance calls in a specified geographic area for a flat monthly fee.

In the early '60s, a call from one county to another was often billed as "long-distance," and long-distance calls were expensive. Cell-phones, of course, did not exist. Many rural communities in the South did not have direct-dial for long-distance even to the next county, so out-of-area calls had to be placed through the local operators all of whom were white because "Ma Bell" in the South did not hire Blacks for anything but the most menial positions.

Operators in league with the Sheriff or Citizens Council would often block or tap calls from freedom fighters.

As part of the preparation and build-up for the massive, all-out, make-or-break, 1964 Mississippi Freedom Summer, and at considerable expense, SNCC leader James Forman set up WATS lines in SNCC and COFO offices. This allowed for regular, even daily, contact calls from the main office to outlying projects. And the WATS lines allowed civil rights workers in the field to bypass the local operators, which meant they could reach their offices when under siege by cops or the Klan.

With a WATS line, long-distance charges were billed to the organization and so such calls could be made from the home phones of local folk who had little money for phone bills or from pay-phones without using fistfuls of coins.

It was understood, of course, that as with regular lines, WATS calls were tapped and bugged by every law enforcement agency from the FBI down to the local beat constable. And anything said over the WATS line was passed on by the cops to the Klan and White Citizens Council. But they couldn't be easily blocked or simply denied by the operators.

At SNCC, COFO, and CORE offices in cities such as Jackson, Greenwood, Atlanta and later the Baton Rouge CORE office, the life-saving WATS lines were manned (or, more accurately, woman-ed) around the clock, 24 hours a day, recording incidents of violence and arrest, dispatching lawyers and medics to aid the incarcerated and injured, alerting organizers of danger and need, notifying media and Justice Department of abuses and outrages, and coordinating support and assistance nation-wide. As the calls came in over the WATS lines hour by hour, the substance of each call was added to each day's "WATS Report" and summaries were prepared and distributed to the press and Movement supporters around the country.

There is no doubt that there are Freedom Movement activists alive today who would have been injured or even killed had word not gotten out quickly of Freedom Houses under attack by Klan night-riders or of activists being "detained" by southern sheriffs.

July 1964 WATS Reports

Note: By July of 1964 there may have been three different WATS lines in operation.

We've tried to guess which report are COFO and which SNCC, but it's all guesswork.
