Memoranda, briefing papers, reports, testimony, speeches, and occasional memoranda of conversations. The materials are arranged by the name of agencies or international organizations. Folders for individual agencies contain both documents originated by the agency and those originating elsewhere that concern the operation or work of the agency.
The agencies/international organizations with the largest files are the Department of Defense, CIA, NATO, U.S. Mission to the United Nations, and Arms Control and Disarmament Agency. Some of the issues documented include arms control, defense budget, intelligence matters, international economic and energy matters, military weapons systems, nuclear nonproliferation policy, State visits of foreign leaders, and Vice President Rockefeller’s foreign trips and meetings with foreign officials.
Arranged by agency/international organization name and chronologically thereunder. For some agencies with extensive materials there are separate folders at the end of the chronological sequence for large reports, State Department telegrams, testimony before congressional committees, or briefing books.
