President Ford Committee Records. 1975 - 1977. Correspondence Chronological Files, 1975 - 1976

1975-1976

https://catalog.archives.gov/id/607660

This series contains carbon copies of outgoing letters prepared by various President Ford Committee (PFC) staff during Gerald Ford's 1976 presidential campaign. Most of the letters dated 1975 went out signed by PFC Chairman Howard "Bo" Callaway or his office staff. The file for 1976 also includes miscellaneous letters drafted by the research staff, the administrative deputy chairman, correspondence unit director Barbara Norris, and Chairmen Rogers Morton and James Baker. While the file from the early campaign period includes some substantive documentation of early PFC organizational activities, much of this series is routine, reflecting the PFC's response to inquiries from the general public.
