Henry R. Seager letters, 1928-1930

Correspondence files of Seager, containing incomming letters with outgoing carbon replies and occasional related memoranda for the period 1928-1930. There are letters from Columbia University colleagues, Columbia University administrative officials, from economics professors at other universities and from students requesting references for professional positions, and discussing plans, ideas, and revisions for their dissertations. Much of the correspondence concerns itself with labor relations and the American trade union movement, including a group of letters from Jacob B.S. Hardman of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America, relating to a seminar that he gave at Columbia University.
