Expand/CollapseSCOPE AND CONTENTS

Although some constituent letters appear to have received individualized replies, the majority were responded to via form (Robotype) letters from the Humphrey office. Files for 1972 and 1973 are missing. Also present is a set of master Robotype response letters for the years 1971-1974. Most of the files of Robotype letters have been sampled, and only representative portions kept. Sample sizes vary depending primarily upon the size of the original file. Organized by year, and thereunder alphabetically by topic, for most years mirroring the topical categories in Humphrey's legislative files. "Multiple issues," general acknowledgements, get-well messages, and other miscellany follow each year's topical files.
