During the summer of 2004 I compiled a finding aid for the new addition made to this collection. I will need to collect and analyze documents based on this finding aid and need to combine them with other documents in order to write about Fellers's roles and contributions within the Republican Party's right wing from the 1940s to 1964 and about his role in U.S.-Japan relations after the late 1940s.
