John W. Davis Papers, Series XI : Rivers, Harbors, and Watersheds, 1963-1970.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/745900612

John W. Davis Papers, Series XI: Rivers, Harbors, and Watersheds files contain correspondence, clippings, news releases, and Department of Agriculture reports on the federal watershed projects in the Seventh District. The file was maintained separately in Davis' office and therefore was kept as a distinct series, although the file is small and somewhat similar to folders found in Series VI. General File.
