Wilson, Congressman Riley J.
Scope and Contents
The records covering Behrman's final term, are more substantial than those in the first series, although they too are fragmentary. Among the agencies covered most fully are the City Attorney, the Isaac Delgado Central Trades School, the Louisiana Highway Commission, and the Board of Commissioners of the Orleans Levee District. Substantial files also exist for the New Orleans Association of Commerce and the International Trade Exposition. Individual correspondents include Governor Henry L. Fuqua, Senator Joseph E. Ransdell, Governor Alfred E. Smith of New York, Dr. Rudolph Matas, Edgar B. Stern (in "L" Miscellaneous), several Louisiana congressmen, and the mayors of a number of American cities.
