Committee on Economic Security (CES)

Unpublished CES Studies

pen nib   Ten Volumes of Unpublished Studies
There were 10 volumes of unpublished studies produced by the staff of the Committee on Economic Security (CES). These 10 volumes encompassed over 200 separate reports, containing thousands of pages of research. One set of these reports was transferred to the National Archives and a partial set was eventually obtained by the SSA History Archives. We believe these are the only two sets in existence. These documents exist only in the form of typescript pages and mimeographed copies of these pages. To make them available, we are rekeying the documents from scratch. This is a very time-consuming and difficult operation. To date, we are able to make only selected portions of the collection available. We will continue to provide additional documents as resources and time permit.
