[0101] American Immigration Conference Board Records, 1929-1939, MS 614
Location: Manuscripts and Archives, Sterling Memorial Library, Yale University, 128 Wall Street, P.O. Box 208240, New Haven, CT 06520
Description: The American Immigration Conference Board Papers, taken from the files of the periodical Uncensored, consists of the correspondence, writings, and printed materials relating to the question of the immigration and deportation of aliens. Active in the late 1930s, the aims of the American Immigration Conference Board (AICB) were to severely limit immigration, both legal and illegal, limit relief benefits only to United States citizens, deport alien criminals and aliens who were continuously on relief, and to "give American Jobs to Americans First." The AICB accordingly gave support to the Reynolds-Starnes Bills, sponsored by Congressman Joe Starnes and Senator Robert R. Reynolds, and opposed passage of the Dies Alien Deportation Bill, which permitted a number of aliens, otherwise subject to deportation, to remain in the United States. The AICB was also strongly anti-Communist. Series I. Correspondence, contains correspondence between officials of the AICB (in particular John Cecil, the president, and Lester M. Gray, the executive secretary) and members of the public who sponsored their policies. Series III. Writings and Publications, contains addresses by Allied Patriotic Societies Inc., Hon. William E. Borah, John Cecil, Hon. Martin Dies, and Senator Robert R. Reynolds. Publications derive from "America in Danger!", The American Coalition, American Nationalist Press, American School of Christian Democracy, Defenders of the Constitution, Inc., Robert Edward Edmondson, German American Bund (Fritz Kuhn, Chairman), Hearings before the Special Committee on Un-American Activities House of Representatives (Statement of Walter S. Steele), League for Constitutional Government, League for Sound Americanism Inc., and John B. Snow.
