The subject category is composed of correspondence, messages and drafts of Presidential messages, memoranda, cross references, notes, petitions, press releases, cables, telegrams, wires, printed material and newspaper clippings concerning Administration policy respecting manufactured products and industries. Major correspondents include John A. Love, Peter M. Flanigan, Charles J. DiBona, John D. Ehrlichman, William E. Timmons, Richard K. Cook, Roland L. Elliott, Melvin R. Laird, Richard M. Fairbanks, David H. Gunning, Tom C. Korologos, Herbert Stein, Harry S. Dent, John C. Whitaker, Dwight L. Chapin, Robert F. Ellsworth, Kenneth R. Cole, Jr., William E. Simon, Ronald L. Ziegler, Tod R. Hullin, Hugh W. Sloan, Jr., Max L. Friedersdorf, David N. Parker and Noble N. Melencamp. Related subject categories in the White House CEntral Files include Federal Government (FG) files for subject concerned agencies, commissions and White House staff members; Business-Economics (BE), Trade (TA), Agriculture (AG) and Natural Resources (NR). THe Name File and the Staff Members and Office Files - particularly those of John A. Love and Peter M. Flanigan - also hold materials related to this subject category.
The Executive files typically contain communications among White House staff members and with heads of agencies, members of Congress and other important correspondents. Although General file material overlaps in type that of the Executive files - most notably in that both files usually contain exchanges with members of Congress - it is more likely to be composed primarily of communications with state and local officials, representatives of concerned organizations, and the general public.
