  • JOHN FOSTER DULLES PAPERS PERSONNEL SERIES The
    JOHN FOSTER DULLES PAPERS PERSONNEL SERIES The Personnel Series, consisting of approximately 17,900 pages, is comprised of three subseries, an alphabetically arranged Chiefs of Mission Subseries, an alphabetically arranged Special Liaison Staff Subseries and a Chronological Subseries. The entire series focuses on appointments and evaluations of ambassadors and other foreign service personnel and consideration of political appointees for various posts. The series is an important source of information on the staffing of foreign service posts with African- Americans, Jews, women, and individuals representing various political constituencies. Frank assessments of the performances of many chiefs of mission are found here, especially in the Chiefs of Mission Subseries and much of the series reflects input sought and obtained by Secretary Dulles from his staff concerning the political suitability of ambassadors currently serving as well as numerous potential appointees. While the emphasis is on personalities and politics, information on U.S. relations with various foreign countries can be found in this series. The Chiefs of Mission Subseries totals approximately 1,800 pages and contains candid assessments of U.S. ambassadors to certain countries, lists of chiefs of missions and indications of which ones were to be changed, biographical data, materials re controversial individuals such as John Paton Davies, Julius Holmes, Wolf Ladejinsky, Jesse Locker, William D. Pawley, and others, memoranda regarding Leonard Hall and political patronage, procedures for selecting career and political candidates for positions, discussions of “most urgent problems” for ambassadorships in certain countries, consideration of African-American appointees, comments on certain individuals’ connections to Truman Administration, and lists of personnel in Secretary of State’s office.

    AN INDEX TO COMMERCIAL SPOKEN WORD RECORDINGS IN THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS by Read G:reyei- This index is intended to begin filling in some of the gaps in the infoJ"Tllation cu:M"ently available con­ cei-ning the existence of actual recoJ"dings of voices and events of doCUTllentaJOy/histoJ"ical value on COtlll'leJ-­ cial long-playing recoJ"ds. OJ"iginally conceived as an infoJ"lllal, in-house i-efe:rence aid, full indexing and annotation at fii-st was not stressed. Because of the limited time available when this pi-oject was fi~t undertaken, the pJ"imaJOy' emphasis was placed on only two items1 what existed and whe:re it could be located. As the index expanded, however, its value became quite aopa:rent, more so in fact than had been oJ"iginally estimated. I the:refo:re started to annotate the entries for each :recoJ"ding as fully as possible, and in order to make this p:resent edition of the index as compre­ hensive as possible, I have attempted to annotate as many entJ"ies as I could that p:reviously contained no explanatory notation. This was done not only with the aid of liner notes and whatever transcription notes we:re contained in each :reco:rd, but also by listening to each :reco:rd and jotting down notes. As inter- ested readers of this index will note, however, it was not 'DOssible to do this for all entries. Time and space limitations we:re both factors which inhibited the provision of mo:re detailed infoJ"Tllation for some of the 71 reco:rds included in this index.
