PREFACE

The Inventory of Federal Archives in the States is one of the products
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, 1937, and has been continued since that date as a unit of the
Historical Records Survey, also operating as a nation-wide project of the
hbrks Progress Administration, and a group of state or local projects of
that Administration and of the work Projects Administration.

The plan for the organization of the Inventory is as follows: Series
I consists of reports on the administration of the Survey, acknowledgments,
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 inventory form, a separate series number
being assigned to each of the executive departments (except the Department
of State) 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.3, 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
data" 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, physical 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 informa—
tion 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.
When it contains substantial information on addenda sheets which has not
been included in the mimeographed abstract, indication of this is given by
use of the reference "See addenda."

In Kansas the work of the Survey was under the direction of Mr. Francis
E. Fitzgerald, regional director for Kansas, Iowa, and Nebraska, from its
inception until December 6, 1956. He was succeeded by Professor James L.
Sellers of the University of Nebraska who served until June 30, 1937. Mr.
Clarence N. Cook was state supervisor until July 1936 when Mr. Harold G.
Evans, who served until January 1937, took his place. Since July 1, 1937,

‘Mr. Joseph C. Knibbs, state supervisor of the Survey of Federal Archives in

Nebraska has had charge of the production of Inventories for Kansas, Iowa,

and Nebraska. This Inventory of the records of the Veterans' Administration
in Kansas was prepared in the Lincoln, Nebraska, office of the Survey and was
edited before final typing by Mr. Martin P. Claussen, Associate Editor-writer
Office of the Director of Research and Publications of the National Archives.
