Marriner S. Eccles, correspondence with Senator J. William Fulbright [04]

Correspondence of Marriner S. Eccles with J. William Fulbright, U.S. Senator from Arkansas in 1966. As Fulbright was Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, these letters often reflect his and Mr. Eccles's growing concern over U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War. There are also references to the politics of the time, as well as personal notes between two friends. Includes a 9-page typescript of a "Prospectus" for a national conference of Democrats on a "strategy for a reappraisal of American policy in Southeast Asia," to be held in San Francisco in July; and letters exchanged with Gerald N. Hill, President of the California Democratic Council, which hosted the July conference.
