Subject Correspondence, 1966-1970, Undated 12.8 cubic ft.
This series contains correspondence regarding specific subjects during Button's time as a U.S. Representative. Many of his constituents ask him for White House flags and agricultural yearbooks, but there are other notable topics as well. These include Albany's Arbor Hill neighborhood (attempts to better the community), General Electric, Laos, Cambodia, protest letters, requests for Congressional intervention, questions about HUAC, the Chicago 7, Vietnam, the Cold War, and President Richard Nixon.
Case Files, 1965-1971, Undated 13.6 cubic ft.
There are three types of case files that Daniel Button created: Military approval applications, requests for military discharges/reassignment, and Albany-related problems. These are organized chronologically and then alphabetically by the last name of the individual concerned in the case file. The military requests are restricted because the military applications reveal personal information, such as medical examination records, social security numbers, and school grades. The military hardship discharges are restricted because they contain sensitive information regarding individuals and their families. The other cases are a broad range of requests, many of which concern postage and censoring, notably obscene advertisements in mail, which Button wrote house Resolutions against. Other requests concern visas, political opinions on the Vietnam War, questions about Vietnam, the Cold War, and other current events. There are also a few requests concerning moving costs, patents, and radioactive contamination.
