Series V: Subject Files, 1949-1957

In each Subject File, there is a page (or pages) with the dates and brief descriptions of the contents of correspondence pertaining to that particular subject which can be found in the Chron Files. In addition, the subject folders contain "selected materials helpful to an understanding of the details for a particular activity. These materials may be duplicated in the Chronological File, but finding important items relating to one activity assembled in one place is of considerable help to search and research." The subject files are in alphabetical order, with the materials in each file in chronological order.
