Series: 1. General Files, 1944-1978
: These files contains a conglomeration of material in which Becker did not make
distinctions between his personal, professional, and UWM activities. The series includes
correspondence regarding the Taxation, Resources and Economic Development (TRED), and
people associated with it, such as Weld Carter, Violetta Peterson and Perry Prentice
(who was a Vice-President at Time magazine). The topics of discussion with Carter,
Peterson and Prentice concern TRED Conferences, publication of books by TRED, and TRED's
sometimes adversarial relationship with the Robert Schalkenbach Foundation. Becker's
professional contacts with other economists can also be found in his
correspondence.
The general files series also contains miscellaneous files and
photographs. The miscellaneous files contain materials that Becker filed in
chronological order, without distinction between personal and professional activities.
It contains correspondence with other economics and about TRED, memorandums from the UWM
Economics Department and other UWM materials. The photographs are undated portraits
shots of Becker.
