Abstract:

Anti-war, draft resistance, and student protest reference files of the United Methodist Office for the United Nations and of the American Baptist Convention's United Nations office. Some of the files concern church-related topics, usually related to the anti-war movement, and were created by the two organizations, but most files consist of material gathered by staff members from other sources. Included are reports, press releases, leaflets, printed material, brochures, and clippings. There is very little correspondence in the files.

Custodial History

In 1977, the American Baptist Convention closed its United Nations office, and donated its files to the office of the Methodist organization. The material was subsequently incorporated into the reference files of the United Methodist Office.
