General Correspondence /repositories/3/archival_objects/514641 2 boxes 1905-1944 Scope and Contents

Includes letters received and sent to forty-seven correspondents, which have in common some mention of Woodrow Wilson. In the folders of twenty of the correspondents there are notes by Mr. Baker that other letters of that file are in the Library of Congress. In many cases the carbon copies of letters sent are missing. This group of letters contains information about Wilson, memoirs and opinions, resulting from the co-operative appeal of Mr. Baker and Mrs. Wilson for material for the biography of Wilson; comments on the writings of Baker about Wilson and exchanges of opinion; and responses at the times of publication of the biography. Many topics other than Woodrow Wilson are covered, and four files notable for having the greater portion of letters on other topics are 1) the correspondence with Robert La Follette, concerned with his autobiography which Baker helped write, and the Progressive cause; 2) Franklin D. Roosevelt file, containing answers to Baker's criticism of presidential policy; 3) the Frank L. Polk file, which relates to Baker's tour of Europe as special envoy for the State Department in 1918; 4) Louis D. Brandeis file on savings insurance, scientific management and trade unionism.
