      [0253] Bay Area Student Committee to Abolish the House Committee on Un-American Activities Records, 1958-1965, Mss 90

      Location: Wisconsin Historical Society, Library-Archives Division, 816 State Street, Madison, WI 53706

      Description: Records of an organization (1960-1964) of students from the San Francisco area that was active in both national and local opposition to the House Committee on Un-American Activities. Much of the collection focuses on BASCAHCUA's exposé of the biased representation of a 1960 anti-HUAC demonstration in San Francisco that appeared in the film Operation Abolition. Organizational and operational records consist of internal and external correspondence, financial records, public relations materials, legal material, minutes, and agenda. The internal correspondence between officers Burton White and Irving Hall reflects the dissatisfaction felt by San Francisco members with White's neglect of them in favor of national activities. In the external correspondence there are letters from Aubrey Williams and James Roosevelt. Five boxes comprise a reference file of newspaper clippings and printed matter on related topics. There are files on the John Birch Society, Christian Anti-Communism Crusade, Barry Goldwater, the House Committee on Un-American Activities, McCarthyism, Nazis, Operation Abolition, Communism, and Radical Right.

      [0253a] Victor M. Baydalakoff Collection, 1932-1965 (bulk 1948-1956), GTM.720920

      Location: Georgetown University Manuscripts, Booth Family Center for Special Collections, Georgetown University, 37th & O Streets NW, Washington, DC 20057-1174

      Description: The Natsionalno-Trudovoi Soiuz (NTS) (The National Worker's Alliance) was a Russian anti-Communist émigré organization, founded in Germany in 1930. Its founder and first chief executive, Victor Mikhailovich Baydalakoff (1900-1967), served with the anti-Bolshevik Don Cossack Army until its defeat and evacuation in 1920. The NTS was dedicated to the liberation of Russia from the yoke of Communism, seeking to replace it with a society based on the precepts of Russian Christian brotherhood and solidarity between all classes. In 1955, Baydalakoff left the organization to form a splinter group, the Russian National Labor Alliance (RNTS). The collection consists of organizational materials, documents, reports, and publications relating to the NTS, including examples of anti-Communist agitational literature.
