Organizational History

President Franklin D. Roosevelt established the Works Progress Administration (WPA) in 1935 as a part of his New Deal to curtail the Depression's effects on the United States. The WPA attempted to provide the unemployed with jobs that allowed individuals to preserve skills or talents.

The Federal Writers' Project (FWP), one branch of the WPA, provided work for over 6,600 unemployed writers, journalists, editors and researchers throughout the United States. Directed by Henry G. Alsberg in Washington, the FWP concentrated its efforts on the American Guide Series, comprised of travel guides for every state and for numerous municipalities and regions. The guides contained material on regional and state history, architecture, geography and commerce. Other FWP writers worked on smaller local projects, including ethnic studies, folklore collections, nature studies and local history.

California's FWP produced California: A Guide to the Golden State, as well as guides to San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego, Santa Barbara, Monterey and Death Valley. In Orange County, the FWP created "A History of Orange County, California" (1936). Less than fifty years old at the time, Orange County had many living early settlers who contributed information to the historical compilation.

The WPA in Orange County also employed anthropologists and archeologists who excavated several sites and compiled reports and lists of artifacts related primarily to Native Americans in the region.

When the United States entered World War II, the Depression and with it the New Deal came to an end. The new war economy resulted in low unemployment and eliminated the time and money formerly available for the types of projects undertaken by the WPA.

The Historic Sites of Cleveland Survey was a Works Progress Administration (WPA) project conducted in the 1930s that traced the growth of Cleveland, Ohio, by locating early roads, dwellings, taverns, and business places and presenting a calendar of events pertaining to these places. By bringing together data concerning historic sites, the Survey produced a body of historical information for use by librarians, schools, and research scholars. At the same time, the project provided work for unemployed people during the Great Depression.

The source of information for the Historic Sites of Cleveland Survey included official records, newspapers, directories, atlases, trade reports, travel accounts, reminiscences, biographies, letters, and miscellaneous manuscripts. The project also used secondary histories, monographs, and periodical literature.

The Works Progress Administration was a work program for the unemployed that was created in 1935 under U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal. While critics called the WPA an extension of the dole or a device for creating a huge patronage army loyal to the Democratic Party, the stated purpose of the program was to provide useful work for millions of victims of the Great Depression and thus to preserve their skills and self-respect. The economy would in turn be stimulated by the increased purchasing power of the newly employed, whose wages under the program ranged from $15 to $90 per month.

In order to counteract the effects of the Depression, the Federal Government founded numerous agencies geared at lowering unemployment and boosting the economy. Among these were the Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA), created on May 12, 1933; the Civil Works Administration (CWA), established on November 9, 1933; and the Works Progress Administration (WPA-1), established on May 6, 1935. The Civil Works Administration was abolished in March, 1934, with its functions and records transferred to the Emergency Relief Program of the Federal Emergency Relief Administration. The following year (1935), the Federal Emergency Relief Administration transferred its records and some of its personnel to the Works Progress Administration, which inherited responsibility for the work relief program. The Federal Emergency Relief Administration continued to function until its expiration in December, 1935. The Works Progress Administration operated without change until 1939, at which time the President's Reorganization Plan No.I made it a part of the Federal Works Agency, changing its name to the Work Projects Administration (WPA). The Work Projects Administration was abolished on June 30, 1943.

Historical note: In the 1930s, the Works Progress Administration conducted a survey to register the graves of Kentucky veterans. These included veterans from the Revolutionary War through World War I. Field workers recorded information from the veterans' headstones, and collected additional information regarding their military service. Nearly all of Kentucky's 120 counties were included in the survey. However, the information from only thirty-nine counties was transferred from the field workers' survey forms to data cards.

The WPA Federal Writers Project was a program established in the United States in 1935 by the Works Progress Administration (WPA) as part of the New Deal struggle against the Great Depression. It provided jobs for unemployed writers, editors, and research workers. Directed by Henry G. Alsberg, it operated in all states and at one time employed 6,600 men and women. The American Guide series, the project's most important achievement, included guides for every state and territory (except Hawaii), as well as for Washington, D.C., New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, New Orleans, and Philadelphia; for several major highways (U.S. 1, Ocean Highway, Oregon Trail); and for scores of towns, villages, and counties. The state guides, encyclopaedic in scope, combined travel information with essays on geography, architecture, history, and commerce. The project also produced ethnic studies, folklore collections, local histories, nature studies-a total of more than 1,000 books and pamphlets.

The WPA's first appropriation in 1935 was $4.9 billion (about $15 dollars per person in the U.S.)(about 6.7 percent of the 1935 GDP).[2] Headed by Harry Hopkins, the WPA supplied paid jobs to the unemployed during the Great Depression in the United States, while building up the public infrastructure of the US, such as parks, schools and roads. Most of the jobs were in construction, building more than 620,000 miles (1,000,000 km) of streets and over 10,000 bridges, in addition to many airports and much housing. The largest single project of the WPA was the Tennessee Valley Authority.

At its peak in 1938, it supplied paid jobs for three million unemployed men and women, as well as youth in a separate division, the National Youth Administration. Between 1935 and 1943, the WPA employed 8.5 million people (about half the population of New York).[3] Hourly wages were typically kept well below industry standards.[4]: 196  Full employment, which was reached in 1942 and appeared as a long-term national goal around 1944, was not the goal of the WPA; rather, it tried to supply one paid job for all families in which the breadwinner suffered long-term unemployment.[5]: 64, 184

In one of its most famous projects, Federal Project Number One, the WPA employed musicians, artists, writers, actors and directors in arts, drama, media, and literacy projects.[1] The five projects dedicated to these were: the Federal Writers’ Project (FWP), the Historical Records Survey (HRS), the Federal Theatre Project (FTP), the Federal Music Project (FMP), and the Federal Art Project (FAP). In the Historical Records Survey, for instance, many former slaves in the South were interviewed; these documents are of immense importance for American history. Theater and music groups toured throughout the United States and gave more than 225,000 performances. Archaeological investigations under the WPA were influential in the rediscovery of pre-Columbian Native American cultures, and the development of professional archaeology in the US.

The WPA was a federal program that ran its own projects in cooperation with state and local governments, which supplied 10–30% of the costs. Usually, the local sponsor provided land and often trucks and supplies, with the WPA responsible for wages (and for the salaries of supervisors, who were not on relief). WPA sometimes took over state and local relief programs that had originated in the Reconstruction Finance Corporation (RFC) or Federal Emergency Relief Administration programs (FERA).[5]: 63  It was liquidated on June 30, 1943, because of low unemployment during World War II.

What Was the WPA? President Franklin D. Roosevelt created the WPA with an executive order on May 6, 1935. It was part of his New Deal plan to lift the country out of the Great Depression by reforming the financial system and restoring the economy to pre-Depression levels.

The unemployment rate in 1935 was at a staggering 20 percent. The WPA was designed to provide relief for the unemployed by providing jobs and income for millions of Americans. At its height in late 1938, more than 3.3 million Americans worked for the WPA.

The WPA – which in 1939 was renamed the Work Projects Administration – employed mostly unskilled men to carry out public works infrastructure projects. They built more than 4,000 new school buildings, erected 130 new hospitals, laid roughly 9,000 miles of storm drains and sanitary sewer lines, built 29,000 new bridges, constructed 150 new airfields, paved or repaired 280,000 miles of roads and planted 24 million trees ...

Harold Rosenberg Papers, 1923-1984.

Resource

Rosenberg, Harold, 1906-1978. Harold Rosenberg Papers, 1923-1984.

Title: Harold Rosenberg Papers, 1923-1984.

The papers offer a comprehensive view of Harold Rosenberg's professional life from the early 1930s until his death in 1978, with the greatest portion of material from the 1960s and '70s. One highlight is the editorial correspondence with Irving Howe, William Phillips, Irving Kristol, Norman Podhoretz, Thomas Hess and Ben Raeburn. Also interesting are letters from French intellectuals such as Simone de Beauvoir and Maurice Merleau-Ponty, whose work presumably grounded Rosenberg's theory of "action painting." There is ample, rich correspondence with writers and artists such as Saul Bellow, Kenneth Burke, Donald Barthelme, Robert Motherwell, Philip Guston, Ad Reinhardt, and Allan Kaprow. Manuscripts show the range of topics Rosenberg's thoughtful writings encompassed in the little magazines that embraced him for more than three decades. They also show the maturation of his style as a reviewer for The New Yorker. The evolution of a given manuscript is often discernible through notes, drafts, corrected typescripts and galleys. Interviews and teaching files give a glimpse of the way Rosenberg presented his ideas as a public speaker, a facet of him that the audiotape also preserves. There is a relatively small amount of personal material, such as letters from Rosenberg's wife, May Natalie Tabak, and journals and photographs, which convey the quality of his family life. Clippings and printed matter, including 20 propaganda posters from the second World War, evoke the social and intellectual era in which Rosenberg lived and worked.

Title: Isaac Child Harleston letters, 1780-1936.

Typescript (1935-1936) copies of five letters written to Isaac Child Harleston from Francis Marion at Bacon Bridge, South Carolina and James H. Thomson "copied along with other Harleston family correspondence" [not included] by Julia W. Reynolds during a W.P.A. project (1935-1936). Four letters from Francis Marion dated March 1780 are addressed to Major Isaac Harleston, 2nd Regiment, Charleston, South Carolina. The first letter discusses which individuals might be placed in Harleston's regiment or better placed elsewhere. Marion tells Harleston he has permission to give a commission to Stephen Mazyck. The second letter lists a return of the Light Corps including the total number of individuals by rank, as well as those sick in Proveaux and [Thomas] Moultrie's companies. Marion notes that he will be seeing Harleston in a day or two since the enemy is along the Ashley River at St. Andrews Church, Generals Clinton and Cornwallis with them. The third letter is an invitation to dine with the general. The fourth letter states the enemy has crossed the Wappoo River with 1,000 grenadiers and light infantry and was within six miles of their location. The fifth letter fragment is from James H. Thomson to Harleston at Strawberry (S.C.) regarding a female slave. Thomson offers any of Harleston's people an eight dollar reward to apprehend and deliver her to him or the warden of the workhouse. Thomson writes "The Negroes of that estate have almost all proved runaways & rogues. There is no knowing a Slave."

Records, 1909-1985.

Housing Association of Delaware Valley. Records, 1909-1985.

Title: Records, 1909-1985.

The manuscipt collection of the Housing Association of Delaware Valley documents many aspects of the history of the Philadelphia metropolitan area from 1909 through 1985. The Association consistantly maintained that housing problems and policies were intimately related to the city's social conditions and physical evolution. Hence, aside from providing a comprehensive account of housing, its manuscript records from the sanitary problems of the 1910s to the neighborhood struggles against expressways in the 1980s. The Archives has 241 cubic feet of records. Of this total, there are about 5 cubic feet for the years 1909-1916, 5 cubic feet for 1917-1920, 5 cubic feet for the 1920s, 8 cubic feet for the 1930s and 8 cubic feet for the 1940s. The paper explosion of the post-World War II era generated 210 cubic feet for the years 1951-1985. There are Board of Directors minutes from the organizing meeting in 1909 to 1968, and 1970 to 1973. The annual reports of the Association from 1912 to 1943 (called "Housing in Philadelphia," 1917-1943) were substantial reports documenting not only its work, but also Philadelphia's housing in general. From 1943 to 1967 there was a regular publication called "Issues," which appeared severaltime a year and served the same function as "Housing in Philadelphia." Finally, there are annual reports for the years 1966-1972, a publication entitled "Memorandum," 1965-1971 and a new magazine called "Infill" for the years 1972-1975. In addition to the minutes and reports, the Association collected data on a yearly basis for a number of housing characteristics such as construction, demolitions, dwelling units, rents, public housing units, sheriff sales, assessments, vacancies and numbers of builders. The data is richest for the years 1920 to 1960. There are, for example, lists of builders for every year from 1923 to 1938, construction totals by ward, 1900-1938, and by census tract, 1946-1964, and the worksheets forthe low income housing survey done by the W.P.A. in 1939. These three groups of records--minutes, reports and data--form the basis for any study of the work of the Housing Association. In the twenties a number of supplementary sets of files begin which continue over the next five decades. These records include 1) reports to and correspondence with both the social services co-ordinating body, the Council of Social Agencies, which became the Health and Welfare Council in 1947, and the co-operative fund raising Welfare Federation, which became the Community Fund, then the Community Chest and finally the United Fund; 2) financial records and budgets; 3) files relating to the Annual Meeting and 4) staff records. For the years 1921-1950 there is 1 cubic foot of financial records, 1/2 cubic foot of staff records and 1/2 cubic foot relating to the Annual Meetings. A somewhat larger amount of records covers these areas for the years 1951-1975. Since 1921 the Association has been almost entirely funded by the Welfare Federation and its successors, whose policies in turn have been developed by the Council of Social Agencies and then the Health and Welfare Council. There is about 1 cubic foot of relevent material for the years 1921-1946. From 1946 to 1975 there are about 5 cubic feet of records dealing with the Health and Welfare Council and 3 cubic feet dealing with the Community Chest/United Fund. These materials include reviews, reports,budget and policy analyses, statements and files relating to the activities of the agencies which were of concern to the Association, such as minutes of the North Central area groups of the Health and Welfare Council. There are 12 cubic feet of "mimeo books" covering the years 1948-1968. These books include all of the memoranda, logs, minutes, news releases, reports, notices, reprints, and publications eminating from any office or committee of the Association. They are in chronological order for each year.

This collection documents the life of Bankhead (1872-1946), particularly that part of his career in the U.S. Senate involving agriculture and farm tenancy. Other aspects of his senatorial career are not as well documented. His personal life and political campaigns also are represented, as is his work in 1940 with the Democratic National Committee. There are several good photographs of the former Senator, however, as well as other family members. Of interest are the folders of correspondence between Bankhead (1872-1946) and his sister, Marie B. Owen. U.S. and Ala. political, economic, and social issues are discussed in great detail, as is the Ala. Dept. of Archives and History. Also of interest are the "turtle" letters to his granddaughter Louise B. Davis, written while Bankhead (1872-1946) recovered from illness in 1936-1937.

Commonplace book; there is also a carbon copy of the typed transcription of the book created by Addie S. Vance in 1936 under Works Progress Administration project #65-33-118, which was sponsored by the University of South Carolina and supervised by Dr. Anne K. Gregorie and Flora B. Surles, as well as a January 17, 1968, memo from Mary Stevenson, Clemson University Libraries, concerning the authorship of the book. The transcription is entitled "Common Place Book of John Ewing Colhoun," but Stevenson's memo attribues the book to Rhodes and presents supporting evidence. The commonplace book is a compilation of accounts, agreements, book summaries, clippings, estimates for a woolen factory near Pendleton, SC, written extracts of magazine articles and speeches (some by John C. Calhoun), formulas, a "health journal" concerning his illness of June 13-18, 1837, lists of orders for goods, a short log of correspondence, receipts and recipes. Many of the items in the book deal with medicine, politics and the textile industry.

The Historical Records Survey was established in Massachusetts in 1936 under the direction of the federal government's Works Progress Administration (WPA). In 1939, under federal mandate requiring state sponsorship of the survey, the state secretary shared direction of it with the WPA, now renamed Work Projects Administration. In Massachusetts the Historical Records Survey undertook a number of projects including surveys of county records, local government records, church and synogogue records, and manuscript collections. Survey files were developed with the intention of publishing guides to the records; however, lack of funding and the onset of World War II led to the termination of the survey in 1942 with only a few publications having been issued. Survey files include survey forms, lists of repositories, notes, draft reports, historical sketches, and related materials, interspersed with correspondence and administrative materials.

Title: Papers, 1936-1977. 1936-1950 (bulk).

The Papers of Joseph Califf reflect his union activities and work for the Food, Tobacco, Agricultural and Allied Workers Union of America (FTA-CIO). The papers, which comprise 1.2 linear feet, span the years 1936-1977, with the bulk of the material dated ca. 1940-1950. The collection is divided into two series. Series I., Pre-FTW Work, comprises approximately .25 linear feet. This series contains material regarding the organization and early years of the United Federal Workers of America, Local 12, of which Califf was a member. This series also contains materials generated by the National War Labor Board and the National Labor Relations Board. Most of these notes, reports and a few government documents pertain to agricultural labor and labor relations in the food processing industry. Series II, FTA-CIO, comprises approximately .75 linear feet. The material in this series pertains to Califf's work as research director of the FTA in the late-1940s. The bulk of this series consists of research reports on various food and tobacco industries, written by Califf and others on his staff. Of particular interst are the organizing and membership statistics which give an overview of the industry, its racial and gender compositions, and the state of unionization for the year 1948. The collection provides little information about the internal operations of the FTA. The collection does, however, adequately document labor relations in the food processing and tobacco industries in the 1940s. The collection also provides some documentation regarding early union organizing in the federal government (the Department of Labor).

Title: La Vern Frank-Rush papers

The La Vern Frank-Rush papers regarding the WPA Art Center in Sioux City, Iowa, measure 0.2 linear feet and 0.277 GB and date from 1936 to 2007 with the bulk dated 1936 to 1942. Two scrapbooks compiled by Frank-Rush between 1936 and 1942 contain introductory and concluding statements added by her in 2006. A memoir, circa 2007, documents activities, achievements, staff, and participants of the WPA Art Center in Sioux City, Iowa. Also included are digital images of the scrapbooks and memoir. Two scrapbooks document the Sioux City Art Center's founding by the WPA in 1938, its activities, and programs. The Center, which still exists today, is one of four WPA art centers in Iowa to survive without interruption. Photographs record exhibits, staff members, students, and work produced at the Art Center and also depict Frank-Rush's personal life. Frank-Rush's memoir and scrapbooks provide insight into how the WPA Art Center impacted her as well as the larger community. In her own words, the collection "reveals the personality of the Sioux City Art Center." A small selection of her artwork, digitized, lends a view into the late 1930s.

The Parks Board was also charged with locating, designating, and marking historic grounds, battlegrounds, and other historic sites in the state, and erecting markers and monuments at such sites. The records document the development and maintenance of the state park system in Texas by the Texas State Parks Board and the work of the board with the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), the Work Projects Administration (WPA) and other federal agencies at individual state parks. Types of records are minutes, correspondence, memoranda, reports, master plans, CCC camp application forms, field notes, contracts, agreements, deeds, blueprints and drawings, speeches, papers, publications (including newsletters, bulletins, circulars, reports and brochures), press releases, clippings, photographs, handbooks, maps, and project files from work by the CCC and the WPA. Dates covered are 1901-1902, 1905, 1908, 1917, 1925-1963, bulk dating 1933-1949. Topics include the development of the Texas state park system and of the individual state parks, the acquisition of park lands by purchase or donation, CCC work at state parks, development of park lands and facilities at the parks, building improvements and additions, recreation at state parks, deed titles to park lands, leasing park land for grazing or oil and gas exploration, and publicity. Also covered in these files, to a smaller degree, is work done at state parks by the WPA and the National Youth Administration. The bulk of the work documented at individual state parks is that done by the various CCC camps.

The Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA) initiated the Pine Mountain Valley Project in 1934 as one of many rural-industrial communities established during the New Deal. The goal of the project was to use relief funds to establish a co-operative community populated by unemployed clients from Georgia cities. Instead of receiving direct relief payments, the settlers (called "colonists") would be paid to build homes, gardens, and other facilities needed to create a self-sufficient agricultural community. This series contains photographs of people, buildings, activities, and events in Pine Mountain Valley, Georgia. Included are images of settlers, their families, livestock, and homes as well as photographs of community festivals, stores, churches, barns, and scenes depicting the daily activities of farm life.

Folk music projects also included performances of Christmas music and of the play, Los Pastores.

Balcomb and Gertrude Greene papers

Resource

Balcomb and Gertrude Greene papers

Title: Balcomb and Gertrude Greene papers

The Balcomb and Gertrude Greene papers, circa 1880s-2009, bulk circa 1905-1990, measure 9.8 linear feet. Balcomb Greene's career as a painter, educator, and writer - and to a lesser extent his personal life - is documented by biographical material, letters, subject files,writings, artwork, audio-visual recordings, printed material, and photographs. Documentation about sculptor Gertrude Greene, from 1926 until her death in 1956, consists of printed material, photographs, two letters to her, and a brief handwritten list of paintings and constructions.All biographical material relates to Balcomb Greene. Letters are almost exclusively incoming letters; two copies of outgoing letters written by Terryn Greene are included. Those addressed to Balcomb Greene regard articles, his will, an appraisal of a painting by him, and greeting cards with notes from friends. The two letters addressed to Gertrude Greene are photocopies. One from A. E. Gallatin concerns her work selected for the permanent collection of the Museum of Living Art at New York University; the other, a fragment from an unidentified correspondent, is about American Abstract Artists dues and exhibitions. The letters addressed to Terryn Greene concern her husband's career or mention him.Subject files relate to activities and topics of interest to Greene or aspects of Greene's career; some concern estate matters. Of particular interest are: "Balcomb and Gertrude Greene in the WPA," consisting of Terryn Greene's research correspondence on the subject; and a file documenting a Judith Rothschild Foundation grant for conservation of paintings damaged in the 1996 fire that destroyed Balcomb Greene's studio.Writings are by Balcomb Greene, Gertrude Greene, and other authors. Balcomb's writings include articles, novels, short stories, poems, journal entries, lecture notes, student writings, and a thesis. Gertrude Greene's writings consist of a handwritten list of paintings and constructions, noting the dimensions, date, and price of each piece. The writings of other authors are about Balcomb and Gertrude Greene. They include notes for an interview, a poem, student papers, and a thesis.Art work consists of a collage probably by Balcomb Greene, and a sketchbook containing two of his drawings dated January 1976. Another drawing is signed [H?.] R. Balcomb Greene's register of paintings documents each completed painting on a separate sheet containing a small photograph or sketch, title, date of execution, and code or negative number, along with notes relating to exhibitions, loans, and ownership; some sheets bear the notation "destroyed." The register is incomplete, and the surviving portion bears evidence of the 1996 fire that gutted his studio. The least damaged portion documents works from 1941-1948, 1963-1964, and 1980-1982; the remaining part of the register consists of partial pages that are missing titles, dates of execution, or other salient information.Exhibition catalogs and articles from newspapers and periodicals represent the majority of the printed material about or mentioning Balcomb and Gertrude Greene. In addition, there are articles by Balcomb published in a number of periodicals. Museum publications, annual reports, bulletins and newsletters mention the Greenes. Also found are issues of <emph render="italic">Art Front</emph>, 1934-1938 (Balcomb served on the editorial board and contributed articles), and his well-used copy of <emph render="italic">Modern Art</emph> by Katherine S. Drier.Audio-visual recordings consist of interviews with Balcomb Greene and a "McCarthy tape" (Balcomb and Terryn helped organize "Montauk's Day for McCarthy"). Among the video recordings is a videocassette of Greene's 1990 memorial service.Photographs are of art work, events, exhibition installations, miscellaneous subjects, people, and places. Art work of both Balcomb and Gertrude is documented. Among the photographs of people are images of Balcomb Greene, Gertrude Greene, Terryn Greene, family, friends and other individuals (identified and unidentified). Greene family photographs, some surviving from the 19th century, portray three generations. Photographs of events include documentation of the damage caused by the 1996 fire that destroyed Balcomb Greene's studio. Installation photographs document exhibitions that featured Balcomb Greene, the couple, and Gertrude Greene. Of particular interest is a view of Gertrude's contribution to the American Abstract Artists' 1937 show at Squibb Gallery. Miscellaneous subjects are Greene's Rolls Royce and pets. Places recorded include Greene's boyhood homes and churches, the house Balcomb built at Montauk, Gertrude's studio, and travel pictures of Europe and Asia. Also found are a small number of negatives, 35-mm slides, and color transparencies of art work, miscellaneous subjects, and people.

Title: Massachusetts black historical records survey files, 1936-1942.

The Historical Records Survey was established in Massachusetts in 1936 under the direction of the federal government's Works Progress Administration (WPA). In 1939, under federal mandate requiring state sponsorship of the survey, the state secretary shared direction of it with the WPA, now renamed Work Projects Administration. In Massachusetts the Historical Records Survey also undertook a survey of black historical records in the state. The project focused on locating and describing relevant materials, including those dealing with abolitionism, in the Boston Public Library and to a lesser extent in other repositories, including the Massachusetts Historical Society, the Harvard College Library, the State Library, and the New Bedford Free Public Library. Survey files were developed with the intention of publishing guides to the records; however, lack of funding and the onset of World War II led to the the termination of the survey in 1942 with no publication having been issued. This series contains information gathered by field workers and recorded on survey forms, lists and inventories created from the data, and some administrative files relating to the survey.

Title: Indexes to arrivals in the Port of Boston, 1848-1891.

To administer posting of bond/payment of commutation against incoming aliens not previously in the state becoming a public charge, state immigration authorities were required to examine and have listed such passengers on vessels arriving in Massachusetts. Per St 1848, c 313 as amended (GS 1860, c 71 s 14; PS 1882, c 86, s 4), the vessel master was to furnish a list of alien passengers under oath within twenty-four hours of landing; lists in practice named all passengers, including U.S. citizens and alien returnees. Per St 1851, c 342, s 4 and St 1886, c 292, s 1, vessels involved were restricted to those arriving from or stopping at foreign ports. Series provides indexes to lists as found in: Registers of passengers arriving in Massachusetts ports, 1848-1891 ((M-Ar)1990X)

Philadelphia City Planning Commission surveys conducted with New Deal Federal Work-Relief funds records, 1933-1939

Title: Philadelphia City Planning Commission surveys conducted with New Deal Federal Work-Relief funds records 1933-1939

The Philadelphia City Planning Commission had barely come into existence (April 1929) when the stock market crashed, marking the onset of the Great Depression. The PCPC requested federal funding, made possible through President Roosevelt’s New Deal work relief programs, to subsidize general administrative costs of PCPC and support the continuation of work on a master plan for the city of Philadelphia which had already begun. The agency also proposed to conduct a survey of central Philadelphia which would help address the problems of decaying older neighborhoods. From 1933 to 1939, the Commission employed hundreds of architects, engineers, social workers, and other professional and clerical staff in efforts to analyze the physical, economic, and social conditions of the city and to address these problems through a combined program of research, planning, and public advocacy. The Philadelphia City Planning Commission Survey files (Record Group (RG) 145-50) consist of 156 cubic feet of records pertaining to surveys conducted by PCPC under state and federal relief programs from 1933 to 1939. These surveys were done under the auspices of the Federal Civil Works Administration Project No. 51-0081 and continuation grants ( Dec. 19, 1933-Ap. 1, 1934); the Local Works Division of the Federal Emergency Relief Administration Project Nos. 51-F2-22 (Ap. 8-Aug. 20, 1934) and 51-F2-1011 (Oct. 11, 1934-July 1935); and Federal Works Progress Administration Project Nos. 4421 (Dec. 3, 1935-July 27, 1937); 14692 (Sept. 10, 1937-May 5, 1938), and 18313 (1938-39). The PCPC survey files contain administrative files, grant applications, correspondence, memoranda, reports, report drafts, research notes, survey data, charts, diagrams, tables, block plans, blueprints, drawings, news clippings, and printed matter compiled and collected by PCPC survey staff in the course of conducting these studies.

The Fiske Kimball Records document Kimball's efforts in achieving this transformation in collaboration with the Museum's officers, staff, and the Fairmount Park Commission, and with the assistance of private benefactors and City funding. Comprised primarily of correspondence, these records also include photographs, mostly of objects, rooms and architectural elements offered for purchase; ephemera; newspaper clippings; notes; floor plans; installation drawings; legal documents; reports; minutes; press releases; and publications. Kimball's correspondents include preeminent leaders of art museums, universities, auction houses and professional affiliations, as well as government representatives, private collectors, scholars, and artists. Kimball's often successful courting of potential donors of objects and contributors of funds is well represented, as well as his efforts to secure labor supplied by the Works Progress Administration. In addition to the refinement and expansion of the Museum's holdings, the development of various departments and offices is also documented, and to a lesser extent other related facilities.

Resource

Bernal, Joe, 1927-. Oral history interview with Joe Bernal, 2003 [videorecording].

Title: Oral history interview with Joe Bernal, 2003 [videorecording].

Joe Bernal begins with his family history and his perspective of the Catholic relgious culture in San Antonio. He recalls his brothers working for the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) under the Works Progress Administration (WPA) during the Great Depression on projects which included the Alazan-Apache Courts and the San Antonio River Walk (now the Paseo del Rio). He tells about the family's survival after his father's death, discusses the negative effect of school pressure to speak only English, relates an incident of early gang violence, and praises the sports program at the Mexican Christian Institute (later the Inman Christian Center of the Disciples of Christ). He shares his experiences with race discrimination under a training program at Texas Tech University prior to his induction into the U.S. Army and his transfer to the Pacific Air Command, United States Army (PACUSA). He recounts his experiences in Manila, the Philippines, and in Tokyo, Japan, including Emperor Hirohito's daily meeting with General Douglas MacArthur. Dr. Bernal elaborates on his post-war educational choices and attributes efforts of the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund (MALDEF) for higher education opportunities in Texas for Mexican Americans. He points to the Good Government League in convincing him to run for public office and to redistricting for aiding his election. He provides details on his election campaigns and campaign finances, and comments on his election opponents David Carter, David Evans, Frank Lombardino, and Nelson Wolfe [sic, Wolff] to whom he lost his senate election in 1972. Dr. Bernal talks about leaving state politics and returning to school administration prior to his election to the Texas State Board of Education. He reports on his meeting in Rio Grande City with Benito Rodríguez who was assaulted by Texas Ranger Captain Alfred Y. Allee, cites the court case against the Texas Rangers in the abuse of United Farm Workers organizer Francisco 'Pancho' Medrano in South Texas, and describes his own confrontation with Allee. He explains the formation of the Mexican American Democrats of Texas (MAD) and of the Tejano Democrats and discusses the Raza Unida party. He mentions such prominent Mexican Americans as Henry B. Gonzalez, Juan Maldonado, Tony Sanchez, Albert Peña, and José Luís Tovar.

She also discusses emancipation after the arrival of federal troops during the Civil War. Adams added that the slaves were so hungry that they had to steal to survive, and she speculated that this trait has been handed down to future generations.

Title: Massachusetts American portraits survey files, 1936-1942.

The Historical Records Survey was established in Massachusetts in 1936 under the direction of the federal government's Works Progress Administration (WPA). In 1939, under federal mandate requiring state sponsorship of the survey, the state secretary shared direction of it with the WPA, now renamed Work Projects Administration. In Massachusetts the Historical Records Survey also undertook a survey of pre-1825 American portraits and coordinated the portrait survey for other New England states and New York. Survey files were developed with the intention of publishing guides to the records; however, lack of funding and the onset of World War II led to the termination of the survey in 1942 with only a few publications having been issued. Survey files consist of correpondence, project files, miscellaneous notes, and index card files that contain information on portraits surveyed and that also reflect the survey process.

Meeting agenda and minutes, 1935-1984.

Resource

Alabama. State Dept. of Pensions and Security. Meeting agenda and minutes, 1935-1984.

Title: Meeting agenda and minutes, 1935-1984.

The Dept. of Human Resources is responsible for promoting a unified development of welfare activities administered by agencies of the state and local governments. This record series, meeting agenda and minutes, 1935-1984, documents the actions of the Board of Public Welfare, later known as the Board of Pensions and Security, in establishing the policies, rules, and regulations under which the Dept. provides services to dependent children, the blind, handicapped, aged, and others deemed eligible for public assistance. The series is arranged chronologically by year; the records for each year are contained in separate loose-leaf notebooks. Included among the minutes of quarterly board meetings are correspondence between board members, memoranda, telegrams, newspaper clippings, press releases, financial statements, departmental audit reports by the Examiners of Public Accounts, proposed budgets, agreements and contracts between the Dept. and other state and federal agencies, lists of permanent and temporary employees, progress reports on personnel, resolutions and legislation, and blank application forms for persons applying for welfare assistance. Of particular interest are the records for the years 1935-1949 when Luola Dunn served as Commissioner of Public Welfare. The records document the period during which the Dept. assumed many of the duties and responsibilities of the Ala. Relief Administration, the Works Progress Administration, and the Federal Emergency Relief Administration. Some topics discussed include: the allocation of federal funds to the counties; the licensing of maternity hospitals and foster homes for children; the establishment of day care facilities for working mothers during World War II; the investigation of persons seeking "undue hardship" exemptions from local draft boards; the screening of applicants for the Women's Army Corps; follow-up services for syphilis and gonorrhea patients; and the development of curricula for graduate and undergraduate degrees in social work. Significant correspondents include Thad Holt of the Ala. Relief Administration and Aubrey Williams of the Works Progress Administration.

Resource

Workers Alliance of America. Records of the Workers Alliance of America, 1935-1998.

Title: Records of the Workers Alliance of America, 1935-1998.

There are two types of files within the collection: copies of FBI documents and records relating to the court case between Eric Davin and the FBI. Files related to the court case include correspondence between Davin and his attorneys at Reed Smith Shaw & McClay, which outline the legal measures taken on behalf of Davin and the defense, the FBI. Also included are random selections from the Workers Alliance FBI files which were used in an attempt to prove that excessive censorship had taken place and the defense's Vaughn Index which stated their explanation as to why each of these redactions was necessary. Court orders from the case are also present. In 1996, the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania ruled that the FBI must reexamine and un-redact parts of the documents that did not fall under security laws and present a copy of the newly revised Workers Alliance and David Lasser files to Davin. Included in the collection are the entire 1993-1994 originally released FBI files and the 1996 court ordered Workers Alliance and Lasser files which outline the FBI's investigation of the Alliance and their president. By comparing the two sets of documents, one may note the amount of information concealed within the redactions of the original release. The documents also include a history of the Workers Alliance compiled by the FBI based on information received by informants and publications such as the Saturday Evening Post and Alliance newspapers and pamphlets. The records are organized into three series: I. Original FBI Documents Released to Eric Davin, 1992-1994; II. Eric Davin v. United States Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation, 1993-1998; III. Final Release of FBI Documents, 1996-1998.

The material consists of correspondence, bids, specifications, and contact reports on the various air marker projects, a bound report on the 1933-1934 CWA project, and aerial photographs of completed air markers, including Montevallo, Decatur, and other Ala. towns. The photograph of Montevallo includes details of the entire downtown area.

Mabel Montgomery papers, 1904-1971.

Resource

Montgomery, Mabel. Mabel Montgomery papers, 1904-1971.

Title: Mabel Montgomery papers, 1904-1971.

Family letters and correspondence with publishers re publications, unpublished manuscripts, and tear sheets of published articles re S.C. history and aspects of gardening and horticulture. Places represented include Marion, Columbia, and Rock Hill, S.C.; Washington (D.C.); New Haven, Conn.; and elsewhere. Following her father to Columbia, S.C., after his election to the S.C. General Assembly in 1908, Mabel wrote a rollicking first-person column for women in The State newspaper. During a visit to New York, 29 Oct. 1911, she describes an electrical show where she beheld "miracles in the way of lightening household burdens." She accepted appointment by Gov. Richard I. Manning in 1918 to the state's first Illiteracy Commission. In this position she worked for establishment of the John G. Richards School for Boys and persuaded Wil Lou Gray to return to S.C. as the Commission's field secretary. While Miss Gray took up the literacy cause, Mabel Montgomery pursued her love for writing. In 1935, the WPA employed her as S.C. Supervisor of the Writers' Project, and during the next six years she toiled over South Carolina: A Guide to the Palmetto State and other WPA volumes. The guide was part of a series in which most of the states cooperated. "No pattern for such a book existed," explains Mabel, 26 July 1941, "therefore the pattern had to be evolved - - sometimes through the trial and error method." After publication of the WPA volumes, Mabel returned to Marion and continued writing. She published two children's books, a biography of Franklin D. Roosevelt, and numerous historical and feature articles. Earlier, she had co-authored with H.C. Brearly in writing of a sociological study: Facing Facts in South Carolina; also includes photographs, historical essays, greeting cards, brochures listing historical information about Marion County and South Carolina, promotional items promoting the work of the Federal Writers' Project and the WPA, and other items. Undated reproduction of photograph [ca. 1891] of group of men with bamboo fishing poles is described as the "oldest river club" in Marion, S.C.; located at a club house on the Pee Dee River called Dog Bluff; an African American man in the picture, Ben Thompson, is described as a former member of the S.C. General Assembly during Reconstruction; this image likely appeared in a newspaper in Marion or Columbia, S.C., ca. 21 Mar. 1950. Approximately half of the collection (572 letters, 8 Feb. 1943 - 3 Mar. 1945) consists of letters from soldiers stationed far from their native South Carolina, written to Ms. Montgomery as editor of The Marion Mail, a mimeographed newspaper that she wrote from the home front as part of her war effort; her publication of events in Marion County, S.C., brought hundreds of appreciative letters from local men serving in the Armed Forces during World War II. Later papers of 1950s document Montgomery's efforts to publish her fiction and non-fiction work, and correspondence reflecting her interest in history, including a letter, 9 Apr. 1955, written in reply to a request from Robert L. Meriwether, a professor at USC, in which she discusses factions within her family who had either supported or disliked Ben Tillman, and reporting her unsuccessful efforts to locate an "authentic Red Shirt" worn during Reconstruction, an artifact that Dr. Meriwether had hoped to secure for the museum collections. Montgomery's concern for her home town earned her a place on the school board and chairmanship of the Marion Planning Board. As chairman of the Marion Garden Club Council, she helped pressure the city council for beautification funds. An active member of the First Methodist Church, she was elected as the first woman on the board of stewards. In 1967, at the age of 87, Montgomery published her last book, South Carolina's Wil Lou Gray. Upon Montgomery's death in 1968, Miss Gray paid tribute to her: "Of all the people I know, I know of no one who gave more abundantly of herself than Mable - - with never a thought for herself." Bound volumes include scrapbook, 1911-1968, consisting of newspaper clippings of her column published in The State newspaper, articles re her contributions to the WPA Federal Writers' Project during 1930s, and other activities and interests (legal size; photocopy); and bound typescript, 1950, of "A Courageous Conquest: the Life Story of Franklin Delano Roosevelt" (148 pp.); and works of fiction: "David's Fishing Summer" (139 pp.), and "Boy Who Hated Shoes" (58 pp.)

Resource

Generations of Auto Workers: Anderson, Indiana, 1930-1982

Title: Generations of Auto Workers: Anderson, Indiana 1930-1982

This project examines the impact of unionization on Guide Lamp and Delco Remy, two automobile plants in Anderson, Indiana, between the years of 1930 and 1982. It details the events of the 1937 sit-down strike at Guide Lamp and the various improvements in working conditions, wages, job security, and benefits that the United Auto Workers helped to influence at the two plants. The project highlights changes in policy towards women, minority groups, and retirees in the factory workplace, and it offers descriptions of the evolving roles of management and the union and changing relationships among workers in the two plants. Finally, the project details the history of the two plants within the community of Anderson at large, and it offers commentary on the then-current problems and challenges facing the automobile industry as a whole.
