Some of the more outstanding correspondents\n         in this series are noted in the box listing.","Senator Byrd's speeches and statements comprise the second\n         series and include typed manuscripts of speeches,\n         electrostatic copies of manuscript and printed speeches,\n         copies of the \n          Congressional Record containing speeches or statements by Byrd, and news\n         releases concerning speeches.

It is best to check as many\n         alternate headings as possible to ensure finding a particular\n         subject. Senator Byrd served on the \n         Agriculture and Forestry Committee, the \n         Armed Services Committee, and the \n         Committee on Finance, so there are a\n         considerable number of related files in this collection.","The fourth series contains correspondence with individual\n         politicians both on the national and state level, personal\n         correspondence, \n         Byrd familycorrespondence, Byrd business\n         correspondence, and correspondence with other Senators and\n         Congressmen. These folders are arranged alphabetically by the\n         name of correspondent or type of correspondence.","Miscellaneous and non-legislative topical files were placed\n         in series five and arranged alphabetically by subject. This\n         series includes the following types of material: acceptances\n         of invitations to speak, participation in the \n         Alfalfa Club and \n         Alibi Club, the \n         Apple Blossom Festival, the \n         Bicentennial Commission, various\n         Democratic Party organizations, Media folders, Special\n         Committees on which Byrd served, the \n         Tax Foundation, and information gathering\n         trips to \n         Asia, \n         Central America, and the \n         Middle East.","The sixth series consisting of chronological constituent\n         and fan mail was determined to be an ideal candidate for\n         systematic sampling due to the large amounts of similiar\n         material in this series and its non- topical arrangement. A\n         systematic sample is one in which the sample elements are\n         picked by their location within the total population. Ten\n         percent of the total number of constituent letters was\n         determined to be a statistically valid sample size. The\n         procedure for sampling was as follows: the constituent files\n         were arranged in chronological order, every tenth letter was\n         pulled from the files and retained, and the remainder was\n         destroyed. Thus out of a total of 16,340 constituent letters,\n         a ten percent sample or 1,634 letters were kept. Any large\n         chronological gaps in the constituent mail sample were present\n         in the original arrangement and are not a result of the\n         sampling procedure.

Whenever possible the original folder\n         heading was retained. Some topics, such as Welfare, which a\n         researcher might expect to find under Health, Education, and\n         Welfare, generated so much material that the office simply\n         filed the material under Welfare. It is best to check as many\n         alternate headings as possible to ensure finding a particular\n         subject. Senator Byrd served on the \n         Agriculture and Forestry Committee, the \n         Armed Services Committee, and the \n         Committee on Finance, so there are a\n         considerable number of related files in this collection.","The fourth series contains correspondence with individual\n         politicians both on the national and state level, personal\n         correspondence, \n         Byrd familycorrespondence, Byrd business\n         correspondence, and correspondence with other Senators and\n         Congressmen. These folders are arranged alphabetically by the\n         name of correspondent or type of correspondence.","Miscellaneous and non-legislative topical files were placed\n         in series five and arranged alphabetically by subject. This\n         series includes the following types of material: acceptances\n         of invitations to speak, participation in the \n         Alfalfa Club and \n         Alibi Club, the \n         Apple Blossom Festival, the \n         Bicentennial Commission, various\n         Democratic Party organizations, Media folders, Special\n         Committees on which Byrd served, the \n         Tax Foundation, and information gathering\n         trips to \n         Asia, \n         Central America, and the \n         Middle East.","The sixth series consisting of chronological constituent\n         and fan mail was determined to be an ideal candidate for\n         systematic sampling due to the large amounts of similiar\n         material in this series and its non- topical arrangement. A\n         systematic sample is one in which the sample elements are\n         picked by their location within the total population. Ten\n         percent of the total number of constituent letters was\n         determined to be a statistically valid sample size. The\n         procedure for sampling was as follows: the constituent files\n         were arranged in chronological order, every tenth letter was\n         pulled from the files and retained, and the remainder was\n         destroyed. Thus out of a total of 16,340 constituent letters,\n         a ten percent sample or 1,634 letters were kept. Any large\n         chronological gaps in the constituent mail sample were present\n         in the original arrangement and are not a result of the\n         sampling procedure. This same procedure was used for the fan\n         mail.","The last series consists of thirty cubics of daily carbons\n         which this department hopes to microfilm at some future date.\n         The listing of audiotapes and oversize material follows the\n         carbons and can be found in this guide."],"physloc_html_tesm":["\u003cphysloc/\u003e"],"physloc_tesim":[""],"names_ssim":["\n                           Blackburn, Hon.
