  • Scope and Content
    The series (boxes 40-46) consists of files maintained by E.M. Bernstein while an Assistant Director of the U.S. Treasury's Monetary Research Division and Executive Secretary of the U.S. Delegation at the Bretton Woods Conference. Files consist of original correspondence, memoranda and drafts prepared by Treasury as well as copies of material preserved elsewhere and printed material. They are arranged alphabetically by subject. Complementing the larger set of Bernstein files incorporated to the Bretton Woods Conference Files, original material contained in this series focus more particularly on relations with the public (correspondence, memoranda and drafts of speeches and articles) and the preparation of the hearings held by the U.S. Congress on the Bretton Woods Agreements (in files: Bretton Woods Agreements, Post Conference Misc/ Senate/ Witnesses/ Legislation). The series also contains multiple copies of drafts and printed copies of Proposals and Articles of Agreement for both the IMF and the Bank (in files: Bank Plan / Fund Plan) as well as the official documents issued both at Inaugural Meeting at Savannah, Georgia, March 1946 (IMF Documents, Official Documents) and the First Annual Meeting of the Board of Governors of the IMF and the Bank, October 1946 (in file: Annual Meeting, Documents).
