Los Angeles Committee for Protection of Foreign Born Records, 1938-1973

Series I. Office files, 1949-1973

Physical Description: 4 legal boxes

Scope and Content Note

The series consists of documents public in nature providing information and announcements on the activities of LACPFB. The conference folders include conference proceedings, reports, and invitational letters, providing a good overview of the different committees and their functions. The conference journals include comprehensive reports on the annual conferences, which focus on the yearly accomplishments and goals of the LACPFB. The journals include articles by Committee members like Rose Chernin, Harry Carlisle, and personal testimonies by the victims of the Walter-McCarran Law. The correspondence is chiefly between LACPFB and the national office. Press releases and other for-distribution publications are mostly updates on on-going trials and announcements for meetings and demonstrations. The Walter-McCarran Law folders include correspondence, fliers, circulars, and petition letters aimed at repealing the law. Paul and Marion Miller are highlighted as the two notorious informers living in Los Angeles, and many newspaper clippings can be found on the two.
