Typescripts and notes for Speier's work Die Angestellten vor dem Nationalsozialismus (English: The German White Collar Workers and Hitler) make up the largest part of this sub-series. Also included in this section are reviews of many of Speier's publications.

Included in this section are miscellaneous materials dealing with Selfhelp, the School of Social Welfare at the University of California, Berkeley, and the National Association of Social Workers (International and Golden Gate Chapter), as well as materials on topics covered in Friedländer's textbooks, such as juvenile delinquency, child labor, social security and aging.

Agreements, proposals, and "Collected Materials". The latter includes correspondence between the Senate Professional Association and the State of New York and some minutes of SPA's negotiations committee meetings. Topics covered include SPA counter proposals; informing members of the status of negotiations; questions regarding the extent of SPA's representation, with some correspondence from the State University Professional Association (SUPA); discussions of how SPA could best achieve what it wanted to do; the negotiations impasse declared around May 1971; and the establishment of fact-finding and a mediator. In addition, the 1971 agreement had yearly reopeners for salary and salary levels were frequently discussed. The "Collected Materials" in this subseries may have been from the files of Phil Encinio, originally an NYSTA-NEA representative, and by November 1971 SPA's Executive Secretary and Executive Director. The "Collected Materials" for the first half of 1973 included in this series were the files of Alan D. Willsey (chairman of UUP's Legislation Committee) and they overlap both the 1971-1974 contract and the 1974-1976 contract.

Minutes of negotiation meetings; negotiations bulletins; contract proposals; and correspondence, including requests to New York State for salary data. Salary was the primary issue in the 1974-1976 contract negotiations. A folder of "Collected Materials" for the first half of 1973 included in the previous subseries relates to the 1974-1976 contract as well.

Typed transcripts of negotiations sessions as well as handwritten notes taken at the negotiations table, correspondence, numerous annotated drafts of contract language, and contract proposals. The negotiations of the 1977-1979 contract are some of the most heavily documented in this Subgroup. See Series 3 of Subgroup IVA, Special Projects, for additional copies of proposals and handwritten notes related to this contract.
