Series: 7: Public Relations File, 1936, 1946-1965: Specify series number when requesting boxes. 106 boxes, 11 volumes, and 9
reels of microfilm (35 mm) The ADA Public Relations File contains mostly clippings and also includes press
releases, the annual Roosevelt Day Dinners, correspondence, and miscellaneous printed
and mimeographed material. The series is arranged alphabetically by folder title and
chronologically by months within each folder. The clippings, and miscellaneous printed and mimeographed material includes
sixty-three boxes of clippings, arranged chronologically by month and alphabetically
by subject folder within each month from 1949 to 1963, but only chronologically from
1964 to 1965. The remaining seven boxes are a mixture of clippings and miscellaneous
printed and mimeographed material, 1936-1964, in which material is arranged
alphabetically by folder title and chronologically by month within each folder. This
is primarily a research file, with much of the material relating to Presidents Dwight
D. Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, and Lyndon B. Johnson. This series also contains
eleven scrapbooks of clippings, dating from December 1946, to May 1953. The press releases, 1947-1965, are arranged chronologically by days. This file is
not complete. The material concerning the Roosevelt Day Dinners is composed largely of
correspondence and related printed matter, 1947-1965. The first dinners were held
simultaneously in many cities in January 1949, to raise funds and disseminate
information of both national and local significance to ADA members and friends. These
dinners are still an annual ADA chapter event. The files for the Roosevelt Day Dinners have been divided into two sections:
"chapter participation" and "organizational affairs." The former deals with the
numerous local chapter dinners, while the latter deals with the organizational
problems which confront the ADA as a whole in relation to these annual dinners. There
is some overlapping of material in each section. Both of these sections are arranged
chronologically by months. The types of material that will be found in the files on Roosevelt Day Dinners
includes correspondence, invitations, tickets, programs, annual Journals, newspaper clippings, financial reports, memoranda, minutes of
various staff meetings, guest lists, and seating charts. The remainder of the ADA Public Relations File are general research folders
containing both correspondence and miscellaneous printed and mimeographed material,
with printed matter predominating. Some of the subjects include civil liberties,
communism, and material on various right wing political groups. Some of the files
relate to individuals such as: William O. Douglas, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Barry
Goldwater, Hubert H. Humphrey, Joseph McCarthy, Leland Olds, Lillian Smith, Harold E.
Stassen, Harry S. Truman, and Henry Wallace. This series also includes the
correspondence, 1917-1965, of ADA's director of publicity.
