https://catalog.archives.gov/id/600278

This series contains two subseries. The first subseries contains correspondence files including material on civil defense and mobilization. The second subseries contains material related to trips arranged by Robert Schulz while serving as an aide to Dwight Eisenhower from the time he was President of Columbia University through the end of his second term as President of the United States. Coverage of Eisenhower's foreign travels, such as the Eleven Nation Tour, the May 1960 Summit Conference, and the Far East Tour, is more extensive than his domestic travels. In addition to materials related to Eisenhower there are a few files regarding travel by Mamie Eisenhower, Milton Eisenhower and Schulz himself. The documentation is largely related to the planning and logistics of travel but some files contain substantive information related to the conduct of government. Items in the trip files include travel vouchers, travel orders, transportation arrangements, tickets, itineraries, schedules, programs, bills, passenger lists, memos of conversation, railroad route and equipment information, room assignments, floor plans and diagrams, lists of equipment needs, telephone directories, lists of code names, briefing books, news releases, press reports, summaries of discussions, and speech texts.
