Some folders may still have withdrawn material due to Freedom of Information Act restrictions. Most frequent withdrawn material is national security classified material, personal privacy, protection of the President, etc. CORRESPONDENCE, WHITE HOUSE OFFICE OF: Records, 1981-89 (33.3 l. ft.; Box 1-87) Scope & Content This collection consists of various functions within the Office of Correspondence most notably the outgoing response form letters used by the White House during the Reagan administration. Form letters were sent in response to public correspondence including specific requests from the public for appointments, items, etc.; support or opposition to various policies or actions of the administration; recommendations of personnel; and personal support for the President and his health. The office provided form letters with the President’s signature, form letters sent out from various staff and office members, and form letters sent out under the signature of Anne V. Higgins, Special Assistant to the President for Correspondence and the Director of the White House Office of Correspondence. It is unclear to us how the Office determined whether correspondence required a Presidential signature or Ms. Higgins. Generally her correspondence tends to be more routine requests and responses, but there are exceptions. The President’s form letters and Higgins’s form letters also included specific letters for youth and children’s mail. Form letters were coded with an alpha-numeric identification. These codes can be found throughout the entire White House documents collection, but most especially in the White House Office of Records Management Subject File and Alphabetical File. Incoming mail is often marked with just the alpha-numeric form letter code to indicate how to respond. You may also find the code in the reference line in outgoing correspondence. Material for each alpha-numeric code often contains drafts, edits, input from the Office of Policy Development and the final version used. There can be multiple versions of the same code reflecting edits of the code due to time and circumstances. In addition, the office reused code numbers once they determined a form response was obsolete. Since we have given the topic for each code researchers can easily distinguish between the reused code numbers. The Office of Correspondence was also responsible for the writing, editing and printing of Presidential Proclamations. The Office records include a full set of the ceremonial 8/31/2012. Bolded folders are available for research use today. No need to FOIA. Correspondence, Office of-2 Proclamations for the Reagan administration. Special letters and messages were continually requested by the public for special occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries and other notable occasions. These records also contain samples of these pre-printed special messages and items sent out with various letters. The Library has divided the other various specific functions within the White House Office of Correspondence into separate collections. Please see the following for more records from the Office of Correspondence: Agency Liaison (Sally Kelly collection), Comments and Volunteers, Mail Analysis, Mail Room, Special Presidential Messages and Special Letter Responses The White House Office of Correspondence is composed of 9 series: SERIES I: “Response to Public” Form Letters Signed by Anne V. Higgins, SERIES II: Enclosures and Background Information for Higgins Form Letters; SERIES III: “Response to Public” Form Letters signed by the President; SERIES IV: “Response to Public” Form Letters Signed by White House Staff Members; SERIES V: Alphabetical File; SERIES VI: Acknowledgement Cards; SERIES VII: Photographs; SERIES VIII: Reference File; and SERIES IX: Proclamations. SERIES DESCRIPTIONS SERIES I: “RESPONSE TO PUBLIC” FORM LETTERS SIGNED BY ANNE V. HIGGINS, 1981-1989 (11.5 l.ft; Box 1-29) This series consists of material relating to form letters created to respond to various requests to the President for autographs, photos, auction or charity items, donation of money or gifts to the President, and for various causes and individuals; get well messages, birthday and anniversary messages, requests for proclamations, support for various issues, opposition to various issues, praise for the President’s speeches and performance and criticism of the President’s performance. Each file consists of drafts of these letters, edits, comments from the Office of Policy Development or the National Security Council on content of the responses; and often numerous versions of the draft updated for new information and/or continuing edits to the outgoing letters. The material is arranged by the alpha-numeric code given to each form letter. SERIES II: ENCLOSURES USED FOR “AVH” RESPONSE LETTERS (0.5 l.ft.; Box 29-31) This series consists of the President’s radio address for November 1987-Februrary 1988; the State of the Union for 1988 and accompanying fact sheets and full 1988 legislative and administrative agenda; proclamations on POW/MIA and the sanctity of human life; Economic Bill of Rights, fact sheets on drought relief, the African famine, catastrophic health care and pro- family initiatives; press releases of the President’s statements on signing the Japanese Internment legislation; State Department and presidential remarks on the Central America and Nicaragua conflicts with the United States; and AIDS publications and fact sheets. The material is entirely from 1987 and 1988. Folders are marked with the alpha-numeric “AVH” codes indicating which enclosure went with which letter. ‘AVH” form letters were often considered obsolete at a certain Correspondence, Office of-3 point and it appears enclosures were not kept for these earlier form letters. SERIES III: “RESPONSE TO PUBLIC” FORM LETTERS SIGNED BY THE PRESIDENT, 1981-1988 (3.2 l.ft.; Box 31-39) This series consists of material relating to form letters created to respond to various correspondence to the President regarding birthdays, anniversaries, get-well messages; sending spiritual and prayer support; support or views on the economy, Lebanon, Grenada, Central America, Right to Life, nuclear arms, US-Soviet relations, Radio Marti and various other issues; condolence messages; retirement messages to military, police, firemen, civil servants, etc.; responses to donors/non-donors to the Republican party; thank-you letters for assistance on foreign and domestic trips; and youth letters on these subjects and other holidays and school graduations.

The material is generally regarding requests for positions; recommendations of individuals for positions; requests for appointments with individuals, the President or the First Lady; some response on views and support; and requests for items, photos or autographs from staff members, the President or the First Lady. The form letters were not used by all staff members or offices and tends to be concentrated in offices where administrative support was limited and assistance was needed from the Office of Correspondence. This is predominately the Office of the First Lady, Presidential Personnel and Appointment and Scheduling. The material is arranged alphabetically by staff member name and then by alpha-numeric code. SERIES V: ALPHBETICAL FILE. 1981-1989 (1.7 l.ft.; Box 58-62) This series consists of material relating to published reviews of President Reagan’s accomplishments for the first two years and the first seven years of his administration; recipe cards often requested by the public; booklet copies of the State of Union addresses; booklets on the White House and the White House grounds; State and Defense Department publications on various foreign/military policy issues such as the Central American conflict, the Soviet military power, the Strategic Defense Initiative; printed booklets of the President’s Saturday radio addresses; a binder with numbered entries for a group of letter enclosures; some masters and copies of the response to public form letters; and reference fact sheets on the President and Mrs. Reagan and the Presidency. A great many of these items were used as enclosures with the form letter responses to the public. There is small sampling of White House stationary, but no evidence the items were actually used at the White House; In addition, there are several additional subject items regarding a request about the President’s hearing aids and a tape of comments from the staff answering children’s letters. This material is arranged alphabetically. SERIES VI: ACKNOWLEDGEMENT CARDS, 1981-1989 (0.2 l.ft; Box 62) Correspondence, Office of-4 This series consists of sample copies of the pre-printed signed acknowledgment cards sent to the public for anniversaries including a special 50th anniversary card; birthdays including a special birthday message for people over eighty; thank-yous for support, prayers and get-well messages; retirement; marriage; Eagle Scouts; graduation; birth of a child; and sympathy cards.

  • Presidential Handwriting File, 1981-1989
    PRESIDENTIAL HANDWRITING FILE: PRESIDENTIAL RECORDS: 1981-1989 – REAGAN LIBRARY COLLECTIONS This collection is available in whole for research use. Some folders may still have withdrawn material due to Freedom of Information Act restrictions. Most frequent withdrawn material is national security classified material, personal privacy, protection of the President, etc. PRESIDENTIAL HANDWRITING FILE: PRESIDENTIAL RECORDS: 1981-1989 The Presidential Handwriting File is an artificial collection created by the White House Office of Records Management (WHORM). The Presidential Handwriting File consists of a variety of documents that Ronald Reagan either annotated, edited, or wrote in his own hand. When documents containing the president's handwriting were received at WHORM for filing, the original was placed in the Presidential Handwriting File and arranged by the order received. A photocopy of the document was placed in the appropriate category of the WHORM: Subject File. The first page of the casefile was stamped Handwriting File, indicating the location of the original documents. However, WHORM often failed to indicate on the original documents the original location (i.e. the six digit tracking number, Subject Category Code). The Presidential Handwriting File, as created by the White House, did not contain handwriting found in staff and office files. The Library will be creating a further series of handwriting material from staff and office files. In order to provide better access to the Presidential Handwriting File, the collection has been arranged into six series. Each series is arranged chronologically by the date of the document. Each document has been marked with the appropriate WHORM: Subject File category and a six digit tracking number.

  • Pentecostal History
    Pentecostal History By Tim Naab Psalms 19:7 The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. Isaiah 8:16-20 Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples. And I will wait upon the LORD, that hideth his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him. Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion. And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead? To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them. "The loud speaker or singer believes that his self-induced hypnotic trance is *enthusiasm and he believes that this means that god is within. He doesn't know that Philo coined this word to describe those afflicted, as in Corinth, with enthus o mania - just momentary insanity. Philo "developed a doctrine of ecstasy or ek-stasis, which means standing outside oneself.' This is the highest form of piety which lies beyond faith. This mysticism unites prophetic ecstasy with *'enthusiasm', a word which comes from en-theos-mania, meaning to possess the divine. From this there comes finally the fully developed mystical system of the Neo-Platonists, for example, of Dionysus the Areopagite.

Executive Commitree August 10. 1983 The President The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Ron: It was nice to see you for a moment in Washington last week at the Citizens for America meeting. Because Citizens for America and Freedoms Foundation tend to overlap in many directions, I was very hopeful in trying to put them together. As you know, we were successful in merging the American Council for Coordinated Action into Enterprise America and then putting those two into Freedoms Foundation just so there wouldn't be so many different solici­ tations to business and the faithful. ( Bill Simon and I even went so far as to suggest that Lew Lehrman and Jack Hume take over Freedoms Foundation, Enterprise America and ACCA, all of which had been merged so that there would be only one powerful instrument in the marketplace. This thought 11 we were unable to sell. The old cliche, not invented here, 11 is still with us.
