Material in the Thomas T. Connally Papers regard debate in the U.S. Senate concerning the Extension of the European Recovery Program in 1949. Senator William Langer (Republican-North Dakota) criticized the Spanish-American War Record of Winston Churchill. Langer reported that Churchill had fought in Cuba against the United States during the Spanish-American War. Thomas Connally responded to Langer's speech, and claimed that Churchill did not take up arms versus the United States. Over the objections of Langer, The Extension of European Recovery Program was approved by Congress and signed into law by President Truman on April 14, 1949. Material in the collection consists of the photocopied entries in the Congressional Record regarding the debate and photocopies of correspondence received by Connally from Winston Churchill and others.
