The Inventory of Federal Archives in the States is one of the prod-
ucts of the work of the Survey of Federal Archives, which operated as
a nation-wide project of the Works Progress Administration from
January 1, 1936 to June 30, 1957, and was continued in New Jersey since
that date as a state project of that Administration and of the Work
Projects Administration until May 1940 when it became a unit of the
New Jersey Historical Records Survey Project.

The planiku'the organization of the Inventory is as folloWs:

Series I consists of reports on the administration of the Survey, ac—
knowledgments, and general discussions of the location, condition, and
content of federal archives in the states. Succeeding series contain
the detailed information secured by workers of the Survey, in inven-
tory form, a separate series number being assigned to each of the ex-
ecutive departments (except the Department of Statd and other major
units of the Federal Government. Within each series No. l is a general
introduction to the field organization and records of the governmental
agency concerned; the succeeding numbers contain the inventory proper,
separate numbers being assigned to each state in alphabetical order.
Thus, in each series, the inventory for Alabama is No. 2, that for
Arizona No. 5, that for Arkansas No. 4, etc.

For each local office information regarding each series, or unit of
related records, is presented in the following order: title, inclusive
dates (”to date" indicating an open file at the time the information
was secured), general description of informational content, description
of the system of filing or indexing (if any), a statement of frequency
and purpose of use, form of the record itself (bound volumes, sheets
in folders, etc.), linear footage, description of the containers, physi-
cal condition of the records (not stated if satisfactory), location by
room number or other identifying information, and finally, the number
of the Form 588A on which this information was originally recorded by
a Survey worker and from which it was abstracted for the Inventory.
This form is on file in the National Archives.

In New Jersey, the Inventory of Federal Archives has been under the
direction of Mr. Van Arsdale Turner since its inception and all inven—
tory work was completed under his supervision, with the assistance of
Mr. Harold Mountan. On July 1, Mr. Turner was appointed State Super-
visor of the CWA and'WPA Records Microfilming Project and Mr. Mountan
was placed in charge of completing the publication of the volumes in
the Federal Archives Inventory series. This Inventory of the records
of the Veterans Administration in New Jersey was prepared in the Newark
office of the Survey, and was edited before publication by Miss Elizabeth
Edwards of the Washington office.

A regional office of the Veterans' Administration was opened in
Lyons on October A, 1950. It took over the functions of a former re-
gional office located in Newark. The veterans' hospital at Lyons, var—
iously known as Knoolcroft, Somerset Hills, and Millingtcn, was opened
in November 1930. The regional office and the hospital were consolidated
to form_thc Combined Facility on June 15, 1931.

Aside from_administering the affairs of the hospital, the Facility
is responsible for furnishing information concerning all benefits; the
preparation and adjudication of disability pensions and compensations;
providing out—patient treatment; issuing authorizations for hospitaliza-
tion; conducting physical examinations for other government agencies;
procuring data regarding claims; attending to guardianship matters;
and conducting legal proceedings on behalf of veterans. Another of
its functions is the authorization and recommendation of veterans for
Civilian Conservation Corps camps.

The Adjutant General of New Jersey maintains contact with offices
,at Camden and Trenton for the purpose of aiding veterans who desire in-
formation or help through the State service offices. These agencies
keep no records and have no connection with the Veterans Facility at
Lyons.

Statistical reports, medical reports, death claims, and adjustment
service papers of the Facility are sent to Washington. Papers consid-
ered of no value are burnt according to instructions from the Central
Office. Some inactive records of both the Newark Regional Office and
of the Combined Facility at Lyons are stored at the Veterans' Adminis-
tration Supply Depot, Ferry Point, Maryland. See Series XII, The
Inventory of the Veterans' Administration, No. lQ-Maryland, for a
description of these records.
