Arrangement

Series 1 through 21 correspond to date ranges (in most cases, a year). Files from 1955/1956-1958/1959 are not distinctly separated by year and are included in a single series consisting of 20 boxes. Within each of these series, materials are organized alphabetically. The files for some individuals, including President Alan Valentine, are organized alphabetically among the rest of the files. In years 1947/1948, 1948/1949, 1949/1950, and 1950/1951, files for individuals in departments/offices and files for departments/offices are organized alphabetically among the Budget files. Cancelled checks from 1951-1954 are located at the end of the collection (Series 22).

Accruals

Files from 1951/1952-1953/1954 were received on 3 May 1972 and housed separately until 2016, when they were incorporated into this collection.
