Scope and Content NoteThe papers of William Edgar Borah (1865-1940) span the period 1905-1940, with the bulk of the material from 1912-1940.The collection constitutes the record of his career in the Senate, which began in 1907 and ended with his death in 1940,at the midpoint of his sixth consecutive term. The papers cover virtually every aspect of Borah's political life and includeextensive files on antitrust legislation, constitutional interpretation, and foreign policy. There is little in the collectionabout his youth or his career as an attorney in Idaho, and most of his Senate office files for the years from 1907 to 1912

were destroyed when his office was moved from the basement of the Capitol to the Senate office building. A collectionof Borah papers at the Idaho State Historical Society treats his law practice and political activities from 1890 to 1907,and a collection of scrapbooks at the University of Idaho Library covers the period 1904-1940. A microfilm copy of thescrapbooks is held by the Library of Congress.

The General Office File , the largest series, is organized by subject and correspondent within twelve-month increments.Files on politics, Russia, disarmament, and agriculture reveal the range of Borah's interests, although files that appear to becommonplace, such as invitations and requests for speeches, often contain significant correspondence on substantive issues.Significant topical categories include files titled "documents," containing correspondence with constituents concerninggovernment publications; "newspapers," referring to articles in newspapers and periodicals on Borah; and "manuscripts,"relating to papers sent to Borah by authors seeking assistance in publishing their work.

The World Court, the League of Nations, military activities in Latin America, routine army matters, legislation, politics, theRed Scare, universal military training, and Russia are topics that dominate the General Office File from the World War Iera to the Depression. Among the principal themes in the papers from the 1920s are Borah's attempts to secure Americanrecognition of the Soviet Union, his support of measures that would outlaw war, and his reactions to domestic political andeconomical unrest. Material relating to Franklin D. Roosevelt, the New Deal, and the National Recovery Administrationtake up an increasingly larger portion of the files during the 1930s, as do subjects such as China's war with Japan, theLausanne Settlement, and neutrality legislation.

Correspondents upon whom Borah relied for advice on state and local political issues include Evan Evans, James H.Gipson, Frank Robert Gooding, John W. Hart, James H. Hawley, Ray McKaig, and Irvin E. Rockwell. Files on topicssuch as politics, antilynching, Russia, the Justice Department, treaties, and the World Court include correspondence withJane Addams, Edwin Borchard, Henry M. Dawes, Leonidas Carstarphen Dyer, Hamilton Fish, Samuel Gompers, NormanHapgood, Will H. Hays, John Haynes Holmes, James Weldon Johnson, Frank B. Kellogg, Frank Knox, Henry CabotLodge, Amos Pinchot, Gifford Pinchot, Raymond Robins, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Thomas Joseph Walsh, William AllenWhite, and Woodrow Wilson.

The Subject File contains material on a wide variety of topics, although most of it relates to Borah's specific legislativeand political interests. Included are important files pertaining to treaties, appointments, Department of State budgets, andthe major problems of American foreign policy in the era between the two world wars. The Subject File complements thePublic Opinion File , which contains letters from the public on matters such as neutrality legislation, the World Court, theembargo of Spain, and New Deal reform efforts.

The Speeches, Statements, and Articles File is perhaps the most comprehensive series for exploring Borah's positionson public issues, for his attitudes are documented more thoroughly in his speeches and public statements than in hischaracteristically terse correspondence. Borah regarded public speaking and debate as a critical ingredient of public life.His speeches, press releases, and public statements were prepared with meticulous care, and many of the research materialsthat formed the basis of his speeches are organized in subject files within this series.

Borah's activities in behalf of Idaho constituents are documented throughout the collection, but four series representingmajor aspects of constituent casework are particularly salient for understanding this feature of his career. The PensionFile and Veterans Claims File deal exclusively with the problem of individual constituents; the Patronage File and LandUtilization File contain materials relating to broad social and political matters as well as assistance to individuals. TheLand Utilization File ranges from applications for homesteads to research materials for legislation pertaining to the publicdomain. Many of the constituent requests in these files were merely routed to the appropriate executive agency forattention, but Borah occasionally noted his recommendations and policy judgements when transmitting a request.

The Borah for President Committee series illustrates the steps taken by a small coterie of loyal admirers to obtain the1936 Republican presidential nomination for Borah. Much of the correspondence consists of exchanges between Carl G.Bachmann, chairman of the committee, and various contributors to the campaign. Rounding out the collection is a smallgroup of correspondence and other papers of Grace Hileman , Borah's secretary. The correspondence, largely personal innature, touches on matters of interest to Borah.
