Correspondence – Francis A. Henson, including outgoing carbons, 3 folders, 1939-1941
Scope and Contents
Scope note for correspondence files. There has been no attempt to make an exhaustive list of the correspondents in each folder. Most letters were routine correspondence from people seeking information about the group; copies of their publications, speeches, and other educational materials; questions about membership in the group from interested individuals; requests for individuals to become sponsors, members or leaders in the group; leaders of other like-minded organizations; union leadership (often about the lack of funds available to support the American Association for Economic Freedom); or people wanting information about pertinent upcoming legislative bills. Attention on the lists of correspondence is focused particularly on political and public figures, editors, and the legislative and social issues of the day.
