Biographical History

The U.S. Army's G-2 "negative" branch, Military Intelligence Division (M.I.D.), was established during World War I as a counter-propaganda and domestic intelligence agency. It tracked the activities of any organization which it perceived to be an opponent of the war effort. After the war, the branch remained in place and the surveillance continued. The M.I.D. cooperated with such civilian agencies as the Justice Department, the Immigration and Naturalization Service, and the Department of State.

From the description of U.S. military intelligence reports: surveillance of radicals in the United States, 1917-1941 (inclusive), [microform]. (Unknown). WorldCat record id: 122556166
