Thompson, Frank, 1918-1989

In 1955, Thompson was elected congressman from the Fourth Congressional District of New Jersey, which encompasses Mercer and Burlington Counties. He was assigned to the Education, Labor, and Administration committees (he was chairman of the Administration committee), and the papers reflect his special interests in federal aid to education and the arts, the creation of cultural centers, such as the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, and the protection of historic buildings.
