History Department professor Dr. Norman D. Brown. Photocopied papers assembled in
1977 by Brown, history professor at the University of Texas at Austin, concern the

in respect to Texas and the Republican Party of Texas. Bulk of collection includes
correspondence from Texas concerning appointments; support of Hoover during his
campaign for presidency, including Democratic support; the Al Smith-Hoover election;
and other political activities. Included are copies of campaign and presidential
